I have made an investigation and herewith submit the following recommendations: That parking be restricted to two hour parking on both sides of 5th Street frcm Cenfra] Ave. to White Street. That parking be restricted to two hour parking on the South side of 9th Street between Washington and Jackson Streets. That parking be restricted to two hour parking on the South side of 7th Street between Washington and Jackson Streets.

To the Honorable Mayor, City Manager and City Council of the City of Dubuque, Iowa: Gentlemen: The undersigned owners of prop- erty abutting and adjacent to Platt Street and Platt Street Extension from the East curb line of James Street to the East curb line of Cardiff Street, respectfully object to the proposed resolution of neces• city to the proposed plans and specifications and to the cost of said improvement and special assessment to pay such cost upon the following grounds: 1. The proposed special assess- ment as to the property of each of the undersigned owners is not in proportion to the special benefits conferred upon tho property by the proposed improvement and is iu excess of such benefits. 2. The plans and specifications prepared by the City Engineer and approved by the Council now on file in the office of the City Clerk, provide for a concrete pavement. This is one of the most expensive types of street and it is believed that the actual cost will exceed the estimated cost by more than the ten per cent limit provided by taw for the special assessment a- gainst any lot. 3. A street such as the newly es• tablished Wooten Street would ~~ M 282 Special Session, July 18th, 1948 meet all the requirements for the proposed Platt Street and Platt Street Extension upon which the traffic will he very limited and much less than the traffic over Wooten Street to and from Mercy Hospital. The petitioners for Platt Street and Plait Street Extension have stated before the City (council that this type of street would meet with their approval. Attention is also called to the fact that there are no sewer or gas mains in the proposed Platt Street or Platt Street Extension and in conformity with the general policy of the City Council the street should not be caved with concrete or other per- manent paving until the utilities are first provided. Dated July 19, 1948. Respectfully submitted, H. E. DILWORTH THEODORE KAREGAN CAi'i.L V. RILEY 111RS. REGINA DUGGAN Attorney Thomas H. Nelson, H. E. Dilworth and Carl V.

To the Ilonorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: Pursuant to your instructions sealed bids were received until 10:00 o'clock A.IDl. on July 19, 1948 for 16 units of Multiple T- Hangars for the Municipal Airport. Four bids were received as shown on the attached tabulation. Construction of the T-Hangars ou the basis of the lowest bids received would make it impractica- ble far the city to rent space for privately owned aircraft at reason• able rates. Therefore I recommend that the bids be rejected and some rnore feasible means be found to provide T-Hangars at the Airport. Respectfully submitted, A. A. RHOMBERG, City Manager.

Today the two attached bids were received from the K-M Con- struction Co. and from Thos. Flynn Coal Co. The bid of the K-M Con- atruction Co. is lower, however, through error it was made out for the items of work called for in the earlier letting. I recommend that the bids be rejected and a contract be negoti- ated at a price not in excess of the lowest bid received. Respectfully suomitted, A. A. Rhomberg, City Manager.

July 15, 1948 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: With reference to a number of claims for damages received by in- dividuals waiting in line to enter Mills Bros. Circus on the 4th Street Extension in the City of Dubuque about 1:30 P. M, on May 18, 1948; sometime prior thereto a connection had been made from a fire hydrant for water for the circus, and water had been run- ning through said connection into the circus; that about 1:30 that afternoon firemen of the City of Dubuque went to the location of this hudrant, one fireman had a wrench to shut off the water and connect the fire hose with the hydrant. That when he placed his wrench on top of the hydrant, a cap blew off causing a large stream of water under heavy pressure to be discharged therefrom and a- gainst various individuals, knock- ing some to the ground and dam- aging some otherwise. It was later discovered that the threads on the nipple to which this cap had been attached were cross sectioned and defective. In my opinion this con- dition should have been discovered and remedied and therefore, the liability herein is one of the Dubuque City Water Department. I recommend that the claims be allowed and paid from the City Water Department, and that the remittances be paid to the claim- ants upon delivery to the City of a release properly executed by them. 1.
