Dear Sir:
With reference to the claim of

Mancini, Ventrella & Sons,
912 West Taylor Street, Chicago,

upon Order of Court or written a-
greement of the parties Piled with
the City.
Yours truly,
JOHN J. KINTZINGER

Board of Education,
Dubuque, Iowa,
June 3, 1948.
Honorable Mayor, City Council,
and Members of the Planning and
Zoning Commission
Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
At the joint meeting held May
24, 1948, the matter of the location
of the proposed highway between
Audubon Street and Seminary
Stroet was thoroughly discussed by
the City Council, the Planning and
Zoning Commission, and the Board
of Education. We were then ad-
vised that the City Council desired
an expression of our views and a
reply to she question of such loca-
tion, 'Phis letter is in answer to
that request.
The Board of Education held a
special meeting on May 7, 1948, to
consider this particular problem. I
was directed at that time to call
the attention of the Council to
the following conclusions:
(1) We have been advised by
experts in the field of school and
playground facilities that the loca-
tion of a highway bisecting school
grounds with terrain such as ours
would work an irreparable damage
to the proper use of the facilities
and to the possibilities for future
development.
(2) It would create a major
traffic hazard to the students at-
tending Senior High School by hav-
ing to cross the main thorough-
fare in order to attend classes in
the proposed gymnasium, technical
addition, and playground facilities.
(3) It would prevent adequate
extension of the present Industrial
Arts Building by the addition of the
proposed technical unit, and the
Location of the combination gymna-
sium-auditorium.
(4) We suggest that an engineer-
- ing survey and study be made. It
- is our belief that this will show the
e beat route to be on the west side
n of the Senior High School
(5) To fully co-operate with the
City Council and Provide a new ar•
n, tery of travel, I have been author-
y, ized by the Board of Education to
make available the right•of-way a-
round the west side of the Senior
High School Building and football
field as out-lined above.
202 Regular Session, June nth, x948
It is the intent of the Board of
Education that this, as well as any
other matter of mutual concern
be determined in the interest of
the genera] public, whom we all
serve.
Sincerely yours,
H. J. NACHTMAN

With reference to the claim of
Irma Biver for $5,000.00 for certain
injuries resulting from an accident
caused by the negligence of the
City in failing to exercise reason-
able care for the removal of icy
accumulations in the crosswalk on

it appears that claimant while walk-
ing across the Street on the side-
walk line slipped and fell on rough,
uneven and icy accumulations on
the crosswalk,- receiving a sprain
and fracture of her right ankle,
which required her to receive
medical service and hospital at-
tention, That she was unable to go
to work for some time after the
injury. She claims actual expenses
in the neighborhood of around
$300.00 and also claims damages for
pain and suffering. After consul-
tation with her Attorneys, O'Con-
nor, Thomas & O'Connor, they have
agreed to accept $550.00 in full
payment of her claim.
I recommend that her claim be
allowed in the sum of $550.00, that
a warrant be issued payable to the
order of O'Connor, Thomas &
O'Connor, Attorneys for Irma Biver
and the same be delivered upon
delivery to the City of a release
properly executed by claimant.
Yours truly,
JOHN J. KINTZINGER

232 Special Session, 1948
tablished, it is only reasonable to
expect that the a i r c r a f t
manufacturers and designers
will build airplanes which will fit
the airports, thus relieving the
owners of airports of the respon-
sibility of ever increasing the size
of their airports to meet the air-
craft requirements.
As a result of this Technical
Standard Order, we have been mak-
ing astate-wide study of the pres-
ent and future airport needs of
each community. The airport for
each community was tentatively
classified according to the immedi-
ate foreseeable needs of the com-
munity, and also the ultimate need.
We have classified your city as re-
quiring an airport which we, under
this Technical Standard Order de-
fine "Feeder", and an airport of
"Local" to meet the ultimate needs
of your community. According to
this Technical Standard Order, the
definitition of Feeder Airport is:
"Airports to serve certified feeder
line airlines". Definition of Local
Airport is: "Airports to serve small-
er cities on airline trunk routes."
This type of airport will require
runways of 3500' length which will
be increased when corrected for al-
titude, temperature and gradient, an
an ultimate length of 4200', which
length would be increased when cor-
rected for altitude, temperature
and gradient.
Classification of your municipal
airport has been discussed with
your City Manager.
Very truly yours,
PAUL V. ROBERTS
District Airport Engineer.

June 29, 1948.
To the Ionorable Mayor
and City Council
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
It is becoming increasingly
necessary to seek out ways for
the relief of traffic congestion.
Particularly is this true in the case
of the bottle-neck at the intersec-
tion of Loras Blvd. and Central
Avenue. I recommend that 12th
Street be made a Boulevard from
Main Street to Elm Street and that
the boulevarding of Elm Street be
extended southerly to 12th Street
and that Jackson Street be made a
mare useable thorofare from 12th
Street northerly to the city limits.
In order to accomplish these pur-
poses it is necessary that traffic
signals be installed at 12th and
Central, at 14th and Jackson and
at 20th and Jackson Streets. This
will mean that the use of East 12th
Street between Central and White
as a playground for the Prescott
School must be discontinued.
This matter has been discussed
with the school authorities and they
wish to co-operate with the City.
However, they are somewhat fear-
ful of the danger to small children
by having 12th Street thus opened
up. They have suggested that an
under-pass or over-head for their
pupils be considered.
Another situation that calls for
a remedy is the necessity of a
traffic signal at the intersection
of West 6th Street and Locust, in
order to allow cross traffic an op-
portunity to cross the State High-
way.
I recommend that the City Coun-
cil proceed to order the installa-
tion of the above four traffic sig•
pals and the designation of the
recommended boulevards.
Respectfully submitted,
A. A. RHOMBERG
City Manager.
Councilman Thompson moved
