Seattle Aug 28th 84

To the Hon Mayor & Common Council of the City of Seattle

I the the undersigned do most respectfully petition Your Hon body for the Grading of 5th Street from James to Jefferson in accordance with the Grades now established or that the same may be made passible for a wagon, the improvements of James St having made it impossible for wagons to deliver goods at my residence.

Most Respectfully John S. Anderson

To the Honorable Mayor and Common Council of the City of Seattle,

GENTLEMEN: Your Committee on Streets and Street improvement to whom was referred the petition of John S. Anderson praying for the grading of Fifth Street from James to Jefferson

beg to report that the improvement prayed for would be very expensive, requiring extensive crib work, and a fill of about feet;

That the petition represents only one fourth of the property abutting; That the contractors on the James Street improvement can legally and reasonably refuse, and do refuse, to waste the earth from James Street, where so long a haul is required. We therefore recomend [sic] that the prayer of the petitioner be not granted.

Alfred Snyder Chairman. Dated Sept 5th 1884

To the Honorable Mayor and Common Council of the City of Seattle. Gentlemen, Your petitioners owners of property along and abutting upon Farm Street between Depot Street and James Street, respecfully petition your Honorable body to authorise the grading of said Farm Street of uniform width of sixty-six feet, placing of eight feet sidewalks and the placing of surface drains on both sides of said Farm Street between said Depot and James Streets.
