Oakland Independent Front Page: May 14th, 2015

This week's front page reveals the many events (including fireworks) planned for Oakland's Fourth of July festivities, plus features coverage of Carson Hanner's shed fire. But that's literally just the surface of what you'll find in this expanded issue. Inside: the city may lease the Columbian Building to Joines Auction Service for a monthly consignment sale; Oakland's liquor ordinance is a work in progress; the city treasurer wants voters to decide on whether to add a 1% local sales tax; junior high athletes are heading to state (and one broke a school record); readers share opinions in Letters to the Editor; the school board lists its agenda for next week's meeting; Don Douglas details his humorous research conducted while waiting for his wife in Wal-Mart; Bob Clapp imagines Dr. Rutherford's arrival to Independence; and MUCH MORE! On newsstands now!
