Mr. Garland McNutt, representing the Special Committee appointed at a mass meeting of the citizens for the purpose of taking a census of the eligible male citizens who may be called to arms, and to consider other questions relative to the defense and protection of property, was granted the privilege of the floor and stated that his committee desired to call to the attention of the Council the question of placing guards at the City reservoirs for their proper protection at this critical period. the matter was referred to the Mayor for his consideration and attention.

Streets, desires to improve his property, and requested me to ask teh Council's permission to absorb a five foot strip of the street on 7th Street, which would aid him very much in improving his property. I have lined up the curbs and property lines on West side of 7th Street and believe that the granting of this privilege will not be detrimental to the interests of the City. ( The Council referred this request to the Street Committee and City Manager with power to act. The Board of Alderman at its meeting on the 16th did not concur in this reference with power.) Requests for permission to install gasoline tasks under street surface have come from Ryalls Machine Works and Sparks Vulcanizing Co. I recommend that, if the privilege is granted, the parties be required to install tanks so that both intake pipe and pump be located between curb and property line, preferably right near the curb line. (Referred to Street Committee and City Manager with power to act. The street sprinkler has gotten in a "one-horse shay" condition, and I recommend that a new one with oiler attachment be purchased immediately so that it can be used for putting down the dust-laying oil. The coat will be about $500. (Referred to Street Committee and City Manager for report.) An appropriation for dust laying oil should also be made at this time. From $1,200. to $1,500. will probably be sufficident for this purpose. That amount ought to purchase two tank cars. (over) |
