La Crosse, Wisconsin, Office of the City Clerk, Contracts and Agreements of the City of La Crosse, 1950-1955
Scope and Contents
The contracts and agreements in this series do not include titles to city land or property. Generally they contain leases and operational contracts and agreements. Other contracts and agreements may be found in the City Clerk’s office or the City Attorney’s office both located in City Hall.
These materials are arranged in chronological order, and were housed in the City Clerk’s area in the basement.
The older contacts were copied into bound volumes (1875-1898) by the City Clerk, and include contracts and agreements made with railroads, the railroad commission, individuals, businesses and industries, etc. At this time, there is no indexing available to this set of contracts and agreements. The information in these is hand written.
The loose documents (1928-1967) include more leases and operational agreements such as concession agreements, audit agreements, Memorial Field grandstand assessment contracts, and the like. These documents have been indexed individually, and a list is contained at the end of the container list in this inventory for quicker access. The information in the loose documents is type written.
