Gentlemen: At the annual meeting of the Cen- tral Aveune Business Men's Ass'n., held Jan. 21st, 1930, the question of a time limit for parking on Central Avenue was brought up and dis- cussed.

February 3rd., 1930 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: The Retail Merchants Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce has de- voted considerable study to the ques- tion of parking restrictions in the down sections of the City. A com- mittee was appointed to consider this question and upon its report, the Board of Directors has instructed the writer to submit the following recommendations to the City Council to be included in the redrafting of the Parking Ordinance. That parking on Main Street from 2nd, to 13th. streets be restricted to one hour. That parking on the side streets from 5th to 10th inclusive between Locust and Iowa Streets be restricted to one hour. That parking on Iowa Street and Locust street between 7th. and 10th. Streets be restricted to one hour. Because of the increasing number of automobiles in the City of Du buque and territory tributary to this city, our Board of Directors believes that steps should be taken by the City of Dubuque to facilitate parking of automobiles in those sections of the city devoted to retail business Restriction of parking on Main, Iowa, Locust; and the side streets 12 Regular Session, February 3rd, 1930 above outlined would seem to pro- vide ample harking space for shop- pers seeking accomodations in the down town business district for some time to come. It would also provide a uniform parking regulation, covering this en- tire section which would result in removing any confusslon from the minds of visitors in the City who are not thoroughly acquainted with park- ing regulations Our Organization believes that the question of regular parking of Auto- mobiles is one of the most important traffic problems at the present time and would like to offer its assistance to the Council in any way that is within its power to solve this ques- tion.

Scharle also addressed the II, Council and suggested that when the traffic rules are revised he hoped that there would be a clause inserted Prohibiting the parking of automo- biles in front of garages and private drive -ways. The foregoing suggestions will be considered at an informal meeting of the Council next Friday, when the new traffic ordinance will be thor- oughly gone over. In order that the new permanent registration system will be thorough- ly installed and completed before the School election to be held March 10th, the Council decided to employ 15 stenographers, one for each pre- cinct.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The Board of Directors of the Du- buque Benevolent & Humane Society again apply to your Honorable Body for the amount of $300.00 which you have in the past set aside for our work, a part of which was formerly carried on through your police de- partment. Our efforts in connection with this most important work are productive of much good as evidenced by the reports we file each month. We have an average of more than 100 tele- phone calls each month, in addition to many personal calla at the shelter. To give you some idea of this, dur- ing the month of January we re- ceived a total of 71 animals at the shelter. During the same month we had 167 telephone calls, and 68 peo- ple called at the shelter. Many com- plaints we received during the year relate to neglected children, and also to sick and neglected dumb animals. We hope that during the coming year we may still have the help of your Honorable Body towards this most necessary work. Yours Respectfully, Dubuque Benevolent and Humane Society.

To the Honorable Mayor, City Council and City Manager of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The first purchase by the under- signed, Maizwood Building Company, from the City of Dubuque of land for the purpose of building and estab- lishing the Maizwood plant in this city comprised lots 4 and 3 of Block B and lot 4 of Block C in Industrial Subdivision of the City of Dubuque, and in connection with that purchase the city granted this company an option to purchase lots,1 and 2 of Block B and 1 of Block C of said subdivision- at the same price per square foot as paid for the land pur- chased, that option to run for the Period of five years from January 1, 1.928. Subsequently and recently this company has purchased from the City lot 1 of 3 of Block C and, has obtained an option running for the same period as the ori Final option. This latter option covers lot 2 of Block C. The undersigned, Maizwood Build- ing Company, erected substantial buildings on the property so first acquired and made a lease of said land and property to Maizwood Pro- ducts Corporation for the operation Of a plant for the production of in- sulating wallboard. Said plant is now in productive operation. When the original plant was built a spur railroad track along Salina Street was constructed. Now that the plant is in productive operation it has been ascertained that for economic operation it is necessary to build another spur rail- road track which will take off from the Illinois Central track on Salina Street and run along on the westerly side of the building. The approxi- mate location of said proposed track is shown by the sketch hereto at- tached. This proposed track will extend probably across a small corner of lot 1 of Block C and along the east- erly side of lots 1 and 2 of Block B. The contract between this com- pany and the Maizwood Products Corporation provides that the Pro - 24th, 1930 �1 ducts Corporation has an option to Purchase all of this property from this company including an assign- ment of the expectation of this com- pany that before the five year op- tion for the purchase of the addi- tional land has expired the Maizwood Products Corporation will exercise its option and also the option to buy the additional ground from the city but they represent that at the pres- ent time they have been putting a great deal of capital in this business to get it started and do not wish to increase its investment at the pres- ent time any more than is absolutely necessary, and it is contemplated that if this new spur track is built it will be built by this corporation, MaiZWOod Building Company, and in- cluded in the lease to the Products Corporation. The Center line of the proposed new spur track will encroach about 34 feet beyond the westerly line of the property heretofore purchased by this company and it is thought that if this company now buys from the city a strip 50 feet wide it will give room for the track with some margin. The option this company now holds, ofcourse, is to buy the whole property covered thereby but we ra- quest now that the city sell to this company, Maizwood Building Com- pany, the easterly 50 feet in width of lots 1 and 2 of Block B and of 1 of Block C and that part of vacated Charter Street included within that scrap, all being in Industrial Subdivi- sion in Dubuque, Iowa. This is a tract of ground 659.5 feet long, 50 feet wide, making a total area of 32,975 square feet which at the pur- chase price heretofore fixed would amount to $3,297.50. We will appreciate it if you will promptly advise us whether or not you are willing to sell that part of the land above described. February 18, 1930. MAIZWOOD BUILDING CO., By Geo.

In checking up the names on the petitions it was shown that 98 pro- perty owners representing 227 lots out of 628 lots were opposed to the sewer, and 135 property owners rep- resenting 188 lots were in favor of it. Spokesmen for the remonstrators were Carl Page, E. C. Loetscher, Mrs. Grace Jaeger, Mrs. Michael Theis, John P. Frantzen, and E. B. Lyons. Briefly summarized, the points they brought out were along the fol- lowing lines: That property owners with septic tanks, installed at much expense. will have to duplicate this expense R the sewer is installed. That streets, lawns and shrubbery will be torn up and repairs will be another big item of expense. That the assessments are so high that many property owners will be unable to pay and be deprived of their homes. That times were hard during the past winter and that many property owners cannot withstand the added burden. That septic tanks are functioning satisfactorily, the sewage stays un- derground and there is no outlet. That part of the district has a nat- ural drainage in the direction of Cat- fish creek. That because of the topography of the district, it will be impossible for many property owners to make con- nections with the sewer and it will be of no benefit to them; also that many lots assessed are practically worthless, just "chicken yards." That there is no danger of the city's water supply becoming con- taminated under the present system of sewage disposal. That it is an inopportune time to carry out such a costly project. Spokesmen for the installation of the sewer were Dale D. Welch, E. C. Kuehnle, Mrs. Maude Hutchings, T. M. Stampfer, Carl Peterson, Ste- phen Bennett, City Engineer Walter Cullen, Dr. W. J. Connell and A. H. Wieter of Des Moines, chief engineer of the Iowa state board of health. Mr. Welch, in his remarks said that sanitation and health is the real issue and that conditions in the dis trfet in which he resides are far from being sanitary at the present time. He referred to a "fragrant odor" that lasts for days at a time He declares that the "inopportunE time" argument of the objectors wa: an ancient alibi, and aimed agains' all public improvements at all times "If the sewer is a. good thing, ant we all know that it is," he said "let's build it now." Dr. Connell, director of .the city iealth department, told of the men - ice of a typhoid epidemic in a dis- trict where sewage disposal is ac- ,omplished by the use of septic :auks, crevasses and fissures and of :he peril to the city's water supply. He said that the city was responsi- ble if an epidemic was caused by an impure water supply. He added that it is now necessary to chlorinate wat- er from the level pumping station on Kaufmann Avenue. It was his statement also, that in a limestone area it is impossible to determine where sewage goes. Questioned as to his opinion on a. tank, he said that the septic tank at is best, was nothing more than a substitute for a sewer. Mr. Wieters, state board of health engineer, said that plans and speci- fications for the proposed sewer were submitted to the state board of health by City Engineer Cullen and -,,.ere approved. He declared that the present proposal is feasible and that, later on, if the district served by the sewer should grow, that the system can be extended to Catfish creek. He added that the proposed system would also be an advantage to the city if, at some future time, the city should be forced to build its own sewage treatment plant. It was his opinion that all larger cities along the Mississippi river will eventually have to discontinue dumping sewage in the river and have their own sew- age treatment plants. "Any improvement is almost cer- tain to work hardships on some in- viduals," Mr. Wieters said. "Because of the topography of the district in which the proposed sewer is to be installed, the proposal is expensive. "However, the state board of health is interested in public health and public health cannot be meas- ured in dollars and cents. We can- not place a monetary value on a hu- man life." Municipalities are held responsible. the speaker said, for epidemics that— are traceable to impure water. "So, council," he said, "in permit- ting the use of crevasses for sewage disposal, you are violating all rules of sanitation. You haven't got a leg to stand on in court." Throughout his talk, he empha• sized the fact that it is his belief, and that of the state board of health, that the West Dubuque sewer pra- Ject should go through without fur- ther delay. Councilman Schuckert moved that all petitions and remonstrances be referred to the Council for considera- tion at an informal meeting of th"- Council to be held Thursday, April al Session, April 14th, 1930 121 17th, 1930.

Property owners on upper Central Avenue from 22nd Street to 32nd Street were then given a hearing. Julius Sprengelmeyer was the first one to speak; he stated that he rep- resented the Specht interests and that they objected to the improve- ment of the street at this time. Dave Cameron objected to the improve- ment because the property on the west side of the street will not stand the assessment, being hill side prop- erty and worth very little. Jos. J. Bertsch was the next speaker; he stated that the street is in very bad condition and ought to be improved, but before the City does anything in the way of improving said street, the water which pours over the street after each rain should be ta- ken care of first, which can be done by constructing storm sewers in Stoltz and Lemon Streets. Father Wm. Weirich representing the Holy Ghost parish also addressed the Council. He coincided with Mr. Bertsch that the water be taken care of first, and stated further that the improving of the street at this time would work a great hardship on some of the residents of the north end, as a great many have been out of wvork all winter, and some are still paying on the White Street im- provement and advised that for these reasons the work should not be done at this time, and if the sewers will be constructed this year, and with the Brunswick factory now under a new management, times will be bet. ter next year and he thinks there will not be many objections to the improvement, because everybody knows it is badly needed. Geo. Bock, Adam Mueller et al. also spoke that they were satisfied to have the street improved next year and widened if necessary. Mr. C. E. Dove of the Interstate Power Co. also made a short talk and stated that by next year the power company will prob- ably remove the rails from the street and install bus service, but if the City Council saw fit to improve the street this year the Interstate Power Co. will not stand in the way. Councilman Schuckert moved that the sewers be constructed to take care of the water on Stoltz and Lemon Streets. Seconded by Coun- cilman McEvoy. Carried by the fol- lowing vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, McEvoy, and Schuckert. Nays—None.

Here Are the Details The plan calls for the erection of a sign at Fourth and White Streets to attract the attention of motorists driving west on Highway No. 20 and which will read, "Central Avenue business district one block west; Main Street business district three blocks west." Motorists desiring to pass north on either Central Ave- nue or Main Street can turn from Fourth Street and travel as far as Fourteenth Street, then turn to the left and meet up with the regular No. 20 route at West Fourteenth and Locust Streets. Another sign will be erected at West Fourteenth and Locust Streets bearing the words, "Main Street bus)?. ness district one block east; Central Avenue business district three blocks east." This sign will attract the at- tention of motorists driving east on No. 20. They can proceed east on West Fourteenth Street to either Main Street or Central Avenue, then turn south to Fourth Street and con- nect with the regular No. 20 route. Three More Signs Motorists driving west on Highway No. 61 will see a sign at Twentieth and Jackson Streets reading, "Busi- ness district two blocks west." This will permit them to travel south on Central Avenue to Fourteenth Street, where they will connect up with the regular 61 route. A sign at First and Locust Streets will convey the information that the Regular Session, July 7th, 1930 213 business district is one block east. This will take motorists driving east on No. 61 over to Main Street, then north on Main to Fourteenth and re- sume the regular 61 route. At Twenty-second and Jackson Streets a sign will be erected calling attention to motorists driving south on Jackson Street over Highway No. 55 that there is a business district two blocks west. This will bring tourists who so desire south from Twenty-second Street on Central Ave- nue to Fourteenth Street, where they will again connect up with the regu- lar 55 routing.

Gentlemen: Because it is appar. ent that a misunderstanding has aris- en over the granting of a building permit to you for the construction of the unit about to be built on Lo- cust Street, I have been directed by the City Council to write to you and make the position of the Counoil clear. Your plans contemplate under- ground construction beyond the pro- perty line and a twelve foot sidewalk. To this the Council has no objection. However, you have been advised by the Building Commissioner, acting under the authority from the Coun- cil, that you should arrange your underground construction in such a manner that it will admit of widening Locust Street at least two feet on the East side, so that, if it become nec- essary or advisable to so widen said street at some time in the future, no damage or harm will result to that portion of the building which extends out into the street, beyond the pro- perty line, by cutting back the walk two feet and using said space for vehicle travel. Your work not having yet been started, you are in a better position at this time to take whatever pre- cautions may be necessary to protect Yourselves, in case the street should be widened, than you would be if you had not been informed or warned in advance. I hope I have made the position of the City Council clear to you and trust that you will understand that a building permit is not being re- fused, but that you should, for your own protection, so arrange your con- struction as to anticipate the possible widening of this street at some future date. Respectfully yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. Councilman Schuckert moved that the communication be approved and made a matter of record. Seconded by Councilman Jansen.

Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Schuckert, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, Mc- Evoy. Nays—None. Absent—Mayor Meuser. John Loftus addressed the Council and again asked the Council to re- consider their action, property own- ers on Algona Street want Concrete paving, that Emulsified Asphalt is an experiment and they do not want to pay their money unless they know what they are getting; they know that Concrete will last and they are willing to pay the difference in the cost of paving. A petition was presented, signed by the abutting and adjacent prop- erty owners on Wood Street, from West 14th Street to Rosedale Ave- nue, asking that the street be paved with concrete paving. It is their opinion that Emulsified Asphalt will not stand up under the conditions found in their street. However, if the Council insists that the Emulsified Asphalt paving be used, they will not accept it unless the street re- ferred to be reconditioned by first reinforcing all weak spots caused by the installing of sewer, water and gas connections, recently put in, and that the Council request the Barber Asphalt Co. to extend their guar- antee that the street will hold up for at least 15 years. Signed by I. J. Plamondon, Jos. L. Schroeder, John P. Feller et al. (35 signers) Mr. Plamondon addressed the Council relative to the petition. We, the undersigned property own- ers who have previously signed a petition duly presented to your Council, expressing our desire for Concrete paving on Auburn Street, from West Fourteenth to Dexter Streets, protest as a protection of our individual rights as taxpayers, on the assessment for Emulsified As- phalt paving on said street, as a pro- tective measure against your action in awarding a contract for a type of pavement which, in our opinion, is experimental as evidenced from the fact that from the best information obtainable there has been no Emul- sified Asphalt used as a permanent paving material successfully up to the present time. Petition signed by Merrill Pregler, G. W. Heitkamp, Don A. LeVan et al. (8 signers) Frank Fuhrman et al addressed the Council relative to the petition. Councilman McEvoy moved that ac- tion on the awarding of contracts for the improving of Algona Street from West 14th Street to Delaware Street, Auburn Street from West 14th Street to Dexter Street, and Wood Street from West 14th Street to Rosedale Avenue, for Emulsified Asphalt, to Uhlrich-Paley Co., be postponed for one week and the Barber Asphalt Company be asked to guarantee that this type of paving will hold up for at least 15 years.

Special Session, August 13, 1930: To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At a meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission held August 11th, 1930, the follow- ing resolution was adopted. RESOLUTION Whereas, the City Council has re- ferred to the Planning and Zoning Commission the widening of West 4th and West 8th Street, and Whereas, the City Planning and Zoning Commission has had corres- pondence with Mr. John Nolen, now employed by the City of Dubuque. regarding the proposed improvement, and Whereas, the recommendations of Mr. Nolan are as follows: August 5, 1930. Mr. Richard V. McKay, Secretary, Planning and Zoning Commission, Dubuque, Iowa. Dear Mr. McKay: The present preliminary stage of the city planning studies make it necessary to present suggestions aid recommendations with some resew^i- tion in the light of future and more comprehensive conclusions. The matters referred to your commission for recommendation on July 17 by the Council pertaining to 4th Street and 8th Street are matters having considerable connection and atten- tion along with other related matters at the present time. As basic factors to be kept in mind in considering the present problems in question, we would point out the following items applicable to the business sections of the city. (a) The street for the purpose of this statement is the right-of-way used for street purposes and extend. - lug from property line to property line. (b) The pavement includes the space between curbs. (c) The pavement in the cases mentioned should be divided into an equal number of traffic lanes and parking spaces for traffic in each di- rection. (d) The traffic lanes should be ten feet wide. (e) The space for parking of cars parallel to the curb should be eight feet in width and for parking 45 de- gree angle, should be twelve to IV - teen feet. (f) The space for trolley cars should be ten feet wide per track. (g) The width of the sidewalk fu this type of street is very important and should not be less than ten feet and preferably fifteen feet wide, in- cluding the curb. The effective width will be somewhat reduced by the neu- t 18th, 1930 267 essary and permitted lighting stan- dards or poles. The width of 4th and 8th Streets is indicated on the maps available to us as being sixty-four (64') feet wide. This overall width would al- low - 1. 2-10 foot traffic lanes ............ 20 feat 2-12 foot 45° angle park. ing spaces ....._ ........ .................24 " 2-10 foot sidewalks ........ ...... 20 " Total...... ...................................64 feat 2 2-10 foot traffic lanes ............ 20 feet 2— 8 foot parallel park- ing spaces .... ....................... ..... 16 2-14 foot sidewalks ............ ..... 28 " Total ......................... ........... ..... 64 feet 3. 4-10 foot traffic lanes ............ 40 feat 2-12 foot sidewalks .............. 24 " Total .......... .�.....................64 feet We interpret the expression "street widening" as used in your letter to mean the widening of the pavement on 4th and 8th Streets. From a city planning point of view widening of a street pavement should be clearly related to the type of property abut• ting on the street, the resultant traf- fic doing business there, the loading and unloading of merchandise from street to store, the parking space available nearby, or in garages, and the amount of through traffic using the street as a channel to other parts of the city, and the amount of ped- estrian use for sidewalks, the width of the street right-of-way, and the relation of the street to the general thoroughfare system of the city. There are certain fallacies regard- ing streets and thoroughfares that should be pointed out, namely: the supposition that traffic on a street always means greater business for the abutting stores, and that there is no longer need for ample sidewalks. While we are not in a position yet to state final conclusions, there are certain observations that may be made to aid the commission in mak- ing their recommendations. 1. In so far as possible the load- ing and unloading of merchandize or freight from trucks should be in' the alleys or platforms located with- in the buildings. 2. Balance should be preserved between sidewalks and street pave- ment even to the extent of having only parallel parking on the 64 foot streets. 3. Certain of the business streets are now too narrow and the only satisfactory recourse is to prohibit parking entirely, a very drastic measure, or to actually widen thn street right-of-way by establishing building set -back lines said gradual- 268 Special Session, August 18th, 1930 ly at the time of the construction of new buildings to increase the street width. 4. A means probably can be found to relieve the pressure of traffic on the downtown business streets by by- passing through traffic around these streets. 5. Specifically, 4th Street is relat- ed to the elimination of the grade crossing over the railroads to the east and 8th Street is related to the approach from the west, so that both are linked up most directly with the thoroughfare system which will be devised for the city. Sincerely yours, JOHN NOLEN, By Justin R. Hartzog, Associate. (Please note that Mr. Nolen has neglected to take into consideration the ten foot street car track in con- nection with the 8th Street widen- ing.) The Planning and Zoning Commis- sion felt that Mr. Nolen's letter of August 5th was rather indefinite and Instructed the Secretary to get in further correspondence with him. The following wire was sent to Mr. Nolen on August 12th, August 12th, 1930. Mr. John Nolen, Harvard Square, Cambridge, Mass. Your three arrangements for sixty- four foot street neglects street car tracks as on Eighth Street STOP Please rush airmail statemnt show- ing more definite recommendation which we may convey to Council STOP As they stand your figures appear to Planning Commission an argument in favor of present plans to widen streets STOP Regards R. V. McKAY, Secretary. On August 13th the following reply was received from M. Nolen. August 13th, 1930. "Cambridge, Mass. Richard V. McKay, Secretary, Planning and Zoning Commission, Dubuque, Iowa. Telegram received our recent let- ter not intended as recommendation but merely explanation because our advice is not to act at this time on proposal to widen Fouth and Eighth Street STOP Later more essential traffic and city planning information will be available on which to base the best possible decision STOP If action is imperative now for reasons with which we are not familiar we would not favor the proposed wid- ening because so far as we know local Dubuque conditions the bene- fits of proposed widenings would not Justify cost and difficulty parking -s necessarily temporary regulation and subject to change. JOHN NOLEN." Be It Therefor Resolved that the City Planning and Zoning Commis- sion recommend to the City Council that they defer action pending defin- ite recommendation from Mr. Nolen or completion of the master city plan which will cover the transportation problems of the City of Dubuque.

At the same time the following ad- ditional crossings were investigated and recommendations to Mr. Bauer were as follows: (1) At 12th Street, repair side- walk on one side only. (2) At 13th, 14th and 15th Streets bring up to rail grade the sidewalks on both sides of the crossing. (3) At 19th Street, Garfield Ave- nue and 20th Street, repair present sidewalks on both sides of the street. (4) At 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th Streets slight repairs are needed in which cinders. can be used for fill. ing the present lines of sidewalks to approximate level of rail. (5) At 29th Street on the north- west corner instructions were given to remove a block of concrete tipping at a dangerous angle and on which persons might slip and be injured.

Gentlemen: The writer's attention was called yesterday to a complaint in street lighting facilities on Lowell Street between Main Street and Foye Street. We find that the distance between these two streets on Lowell Street is approximately 1450 feet. There is at present a 600 C. P. light at the intersection of Main and Lowell and Foye and Lowell. There is also one 600 C. P. light about 400 feet north- westerly from the angle in Lowell Street which angle is approximately 250 feet west of Main Street. Where Paul Street and Rosalind Street in- tersects with Lowell Street there are no street lights. - The writer would suggest authority to have the present light 400 feet from the angle of the street move about two pole lengths toward Mair Street which would afford light near the angle in Lowell Street and would also recommend the installation of new street lamp at or near the inter- section of Lowell and Paul Streets This would correct the present 70 or 800 foot stretch without light from Foye Street eastwardly.

Preseut—City Manager Evans, Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andel - finger, Jansen, McEvoy, Schuckert. Absent—None. Mayor Meuser read the call and stated that service thereof had been duly made and that this meeting is called for the purpose of awarding the contract for the construction of a storm water sewer in Shiras Avenue, Lincoln Avenue, and in the alley be- tween Lincoln Avenue and Rhomberg Avenue, and acting on any other business that may come before the meeting. Resolution No. 330-30 awarding contract for the construction of a storm water sewer in Shiras Avenue, Lincoln Avenue and the alley be- tween Lincoln Avenue and Rhom- berg Avenue, to Uhlrich Paley Co., for segment block construction, hav- ing been approved and on file for one week for public inspection, presented and read. remonstrance filed by competi- v, dens objecting to the award of aw contract for segment block. on Shiras Avenue sewer project, for the reason that and open competitiv(, bidding has not been obtained. Thr only concern quoting prices on seg- ment block failed to give a uniform price to all bidders thereby denying the right to bid on an equal basis. They therefore wish to go on rec- ord as opposing the award of this contract on the present bidding. Signed by: Jas. F. Lee Paving Co. James Saul & Son, R. F. Conlon. Also a remonstrance by tax payers of the City of Dubuque objecting to awarding the contract for the Shiras Avenue sewer for segment block con- struction, and ask that the same be constructed of concrete. "In these trying days, with na- tional, state and civic authorities striving to relieve suffering and hardships following in the wake of unemployment, it is incumbent up- on the City Council of Dubuque to do its small part. Within the past few days the press has carried the announcement that the city mus, curtail expenditures to keep within the budget. There was a difference of $1,336 between the concrete and clay product bids in favor of the Sitecial Sess former. Yet, with the city's finances low, your honorable body proposes to throw away the difference to use clay. A concrete sewer is more ad. visable from an engineering stand- point. Personal likes or dislike;. should not influence the selection of a material. "Concrete construction means a healthy contribution on the part of the city to help needy workmen in larger numbers and at a greatly in- creased payroll. Dubuque merchants will sell the lumber, sand, stone, steel and cement that will go into the sewer. Use of clay blocks means that. Dubuque merchants will sell no- thing. The block will be purchased outside of Dubuque, made by outside labor and the profits will go to out- side people. The cost of segment block alone will be approximately 75 per cent of the entire contract. "As taxpayers, we feel that the City of Dubuque should be glad to give all available help, as other cities are doing, rather than use a product that means a minimum of labor and no local materials. We, therefore, petition your honorable body to re- consider your action. "Before making a final award of the contract, we further call upon you to submit the entire matter to the budget director of the state of Iowa, who is vested with authority to regulate the expenditure of pub- lic authority to regulate the expen- diture of public funds in the inter- ests of the taxpayers." Councilman Andelfinger moved that the remonstrances be received and filed. Seconded by Councilman Jansen. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, M c E v o y, Schuckert. Nays --None. Councilman Andelfinger moved that the contract be awarded to the Uhlrich Paley Co., being low bidder on segment block. Seconded by Coun- cilman Jansen. Before the motion was voted upon, Councilman McEvoy moved that the rules be suspended to allow anyone present who wished to do so, to address the Council. Sec- onded by Councilman Schuckert. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, M c E v o y, Schuckert. Nays—None. Attorney Frank Gilloon addressed the Council and stated that he was representing the contractors who had bid on the Shiras Avenue sewer project in competition with the Uhl - rich -Paley Company. "The City Engineer's estimate for October 27th, 1930 341 both segment block and concrete construction of this sewer was $19,• 000," he said. "No distinction was made between the two materials by the estimator. Either one was deem. ed suitable for the project. "The purpose of competitive bid- ding is to prevent fraud and collu- sion. The Dickey Clay Manufacturing Company had a representative here to advise bidders on quotations for segment block. This representative gave Saul a quotation of $11.31 a cubic foot; Conlon, $11.31; Lee $10.34, and also told Lee he was giv- ing Uhlrich the same quotation. Whether he did or not, we do not know, but we do know that he gave different quotations to two contract- ors. "The council asks bidding on com- petitive basis. Bidding on segment block was eonfr671ed by a single firm, which gave the quotations. A total of 1,140 feet of sewer is to be laid. They gave Lee and Uhlrich a price 47 cents lower a cubic foot tha,n they gave Saul and Conlon. Take 1,140 feet at 47 cents and it amounts to $535.80 on the job in fav- or of Lee and Uhlrich and gave then an advantage over the other two bid- ders, Saul and Conlon. Now, I main- tain 47 cents a foot is a fair profit. "Is the price too high? If you had fair, competitive prices you might shave down the cost. You ought not to pass this contract without invest- igating. "In this situation, one firm con- trolling the material to be used, can put the price of this material so high on one contractor and so low on an. other that others can't make a fair bid. "The council will be remiss in its duty if it does not investigate, re - advertise for bids and give all con- tractors an even chance to bid for the work. In all bidding, contract- ors must display ingenuity to obtain contracts when the competitive bid- ding is on an even basis. But, it one contractor has to pay 47 cents more a cubic foot for matrials than others, he is at a disadvantage. If this practice is permitted, you might. as well throw competitive bids in the ash can. "You gentlemen owe the taxpayers a duty. You should investigate what hind of a combine clay products firms may have; you should abandon all proceedings so far, re -advertise for bids and give all contractors a square deal. "You should not take any action until you have made a thorough in- vestigation. If what you find isn't as clean as a hound's tooth, throw 342 Special Session, October 27th, 1930 the whole matter out and start avew." J. D. Cook, .salesmanager of the Dickey Clay Mfg. Co., replied to Mr. Gilloon: "This man (Gilloon) accuses us of discriminating in the matter of quo tations on segment blocks," he said. "The fact of the matter is, we gave Lee as low a price as was made to anybody else. However, he did not see fit to use it. "The Uhlrich-Paley account is a valuable one with our company. We sell them much material. Some of our accounts are better than others and they justify better quotations. We believe that it rests with our own judgement to quote certain prices to certain contractors. I be- lieve any fair-minded person will bear me cut in that. Linehan and Molo have been dealers in our prod- ucts here for 20 years and we are giving them a chance to profit on all materials we sell here. "As for competitive bidding, we did not bid on this project. The con- tractors did the bidding. We did not make up their figures. Six other companies are making segment block all equal in quality to the Dickey Company's. It is no fault of ours that they did not come to Du- buque and quote prices." "The Uhlrich-Paley Company has decided to dispense with ditch -dig- ging machinery on this sewer pro- ject. It will all be done by hand labor. They will pay a minimum price of 40 cents an hour to common labor and more to skilled labor. Cook insisted that segment block is more durable than concrete, es- pecially well burned, vitrified and salt glazed block, which, he claims, is not affected by gases or acids. Again -touching on the subject of competitive bidding and price quota- tions, Cook inquired as to why crushed stone has been quoted at $1.40 a ton in Dubuque and at 85 cents in East Dubuque. Mr. Paul Braun, another Dubuque contractor, addressed the Council in favor of segment block construction. In his argument, Braun said that he is probably more interested in thr sewer than any other person, as it runs along his property. He said that if a concrete sewer were built, an extremely narrow sidewalk would run along Shiras Avenue and that all trees would have to be removed from one side of what he termed as "one of the most beautiful streets in the city", one leading to Eagle Poin" Park. With a segment block sewer, lie said, the trees would not be de. stroyed and there would be a four - foot sidewalk on Shiras Avenue. The motion having been made and seconded, awarding the contract for the Shiras Avenue storm sewer pro- ject to Uhlrich-Paley Co., for seg- ment block construction, the question was then put and the vote resulted as follows: Yeas — Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, Schuckert. Nays—Mayor Meuser, Councilman McEvoy. The vote being 3 to 2 in favor of Uhlrich-Paley Co. and segment block construction. "I desire to explain my position," Mayor Meuser said. "When we ad- vertised for bids for this sewer, we called for them on two materials, segment block and concrete. No dis- tinction was made between the two. The fact that we advertised on bids for two materials and secured the lowest bid on concrete, leads me to believe that the low bidder on con- crete should have been given tho contract. I believe the City Manager recommended that the Council award the contract to the low bidder on concrete, whose bid was lower that. the low bid on segment block. 1 believe if we would re -advertise for bids we might get better price on both matert'als." "My position is the same as it was at last Monday night's Council meet- ing," Councilman McEvoy said. "When I voted `aye' on the third motion to award the segment block contract it was to have harmony in the Council. I could not see why the Council should pay $1,836 more for segment block than concrete, espe- cially at this time, when there is so much unemployment. I still feel the same way about it." Attorney Gilloon addressed the Council representing Even and Kolb, aeking permission to replace the gas filling pump between 9th and 10th Streets on Central Avenue with a new pump.

Gentlemen: The attached petit- ion of residents on Wood Street dated October 18th requesting that a street light be installed at the in- tercetion of Fourteenth and Wood Streets was addressed to the writer and received October 22nd. We have made an examination of the lighting facilities on Fourteenth Street and find that there is a pres- ent are light at Fourteenth and Mt. Pleasant, also at Fourteenth and Nowata. On Fourteenth there is a strip of approximately 700 feet with- out a light, eastern half being heavily treed. On Wood Street to- ward the north there is a strip about 500 feet before the first street light and towards the South about 300 feet. Accordingly it would seem ad- visable to have a street light placed at the intersection of Fourteenth and the new paving on Wood Street. Respectfully submitted R. M. EVANS, City Manager.

I am writing this letter to verify the verbal assurance which was given to yourself and the City Coun- cil that if these standards are erec- ted by the City on either 2nd, Street or Locust Street past our place of business, the Mid Contin- ent Petroleum Corporation will change their standards to comply with the type used by the City. Yours very truly Mid Continent Petroleum Corpora- tion, R. F. Sarff, Branch Manager. Councilman McEvoy moved that the communication be made a matter of record, Seconded by Coun- cilman Schuckert.

Gentlemen: In connection with your instruct- ions of October 20th in regard to the petition of Mr. C. L. Sheffield that a further investigation be made by the City Manager toward the for- mer assessment of lots 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 on Plymouth Street, please be advised that on assessment resolnt- ion No. 14-29, approved March 4th, 1929 by Councilmen Maclay, Schuck- ert, Meuser, and McEvoy, the follow- ing information appears: ial Session, October 27th, 1930 345 C. L. Sheffield, Lot 16, frontage S ft.; assessment units, 912; paving $42.64; extra costs, $3.48; total, $46.12. C. L. Sheffield, Lot 17, frontage, 60 ft.; assessment units, 6810; paving, $318.39; extra costs, $26.00; total, $344.39. C. L. Sheffield, Lot 18, frontage, 21 ft.; assessment units, 4848; paving, $226.66; extra costs, $18.51; total, $245.17. C. L. Sheffield, Lot 19, frontage, 30 ft.; assessment units, 6353; paving, $297.02; extra costs, $24.26; total, $321.28. C. L. Sheffield, Lot 20, frontage, 25 fl.; assessment units, 5894; paving, $275.56; extra costs, $22.51; total, $298.07. Total frontage, 144 ft.; total pav- ing, $1160.27; total extra costs, $94.76; grand total, $1255.03. The writer has gone over the ground with Mr. Sheffield and Mr. Cullen, the City Engineer, today and Mr. Sheffield makes the statement that he does not challenge the en- gineering calculations or the method of levying the assessments, which method is in strict compliance with the sense of the resolution and in accordance with the Somer's System of levying assessments. Mr. Shef- field claims that for slightly more frontage on the street than his neigh- bcrs, Messrs. Molo and Stampfer, that he was assessed more in pro- portion than they were. This dif- ference was explained to him by Mr. Cullen in regard to the area basis for levying assessments. We find that the total frontage of Property owned by Mr. Sheffield is 144 feet, against which was levied a total of $1,255.03, while against Mr. H. E. Molo, with a frontage of 7S feet, a total of $4.19.79 was levied and against Mr. J. F. Stampfer, with a frontage of 99 feet, a total assess- ment of $682.57. While the frontage on Plymouth Street of these portions of five lots is 144 feet, the lot lines radiate in such a way that at the approximate fifty foot setback line from the prop- erty line, which is the building line of said street, it would be possible to secure three lots at the fifty foot setback line, each eighty feet in width and the lot width in the rear would be considerably in excess of eighty feet. With this in mind and also due to the fact that the lots are up to street grade and are capable of being de- veloped for residential use, the writ- er can see no real reason for recom- mending any reduction in the assess- ment. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved. Seconded by Coun- cilman McEvoy. Carried by the fol- lowing vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen,tiI c E v o y, Schuckert. Nays—None. October 24, 1930. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: The petition dated October 9th from the Dubuque Realty Company that either their assessment of $128.95 be rebated or a recently con- structed White Way lamp which was removed in August 1.930 be placed on Eighth Street near Iowa, has been investigated. We find that the assessment for White Way lighting on Eighth Street was spread against lots abutting Eighth Street and for 128 feet either way. We find that on. the first of August the Council authorized the removal of the particular light in question, which was in front of the Grand Theatre and about 15 feet westwardly from the property line between the Bradley & Maclay in- terests and the Dubuque Realty Com- pany property. The light was re- moved because of its confliction v-ith the new canopy or marquee of the Grand Theatre. It was explained to Mr. Ed. G. Imhof that the light was in confliction with the new can- opy and that the lighting around the canopy would practically do away with the necessity of the light at this point. The light in question was a dark after midnight type, being a two lamp post. Accordingly if a rebate is allowed, it could not be made for $128.95 as requested because this amount includes the cost of under- ground cable and the lamp post. The actual cost of the lamp with glass and fixtures is $85.00. It was ex- plained to the Dubuque Realty Com- pany interests that if a rebate were made it would not be made to them as the light was not in front of their property and in our opinion the rebate should be made to every per- son assessed for the improvement on said lighting procedure. The writer suggested that inas- much as the Council had not fully determined as to whether or not Eighth Street was to be widened. 346 Special- Session, C that the question of re -installing the light be dropped for the time being until such time as a new location would be definite and accessible to both the Bradley & Maclay interests and the Dubuque Realty Company interests. Awaiting your instructions in this respect, I am, Yours very truly, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved. Seconded by Coun- cilman Jansen. Carried by the fol- lowing vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen. Andelfinger, Jansen, M c E v o y, Schuckert. Nays—None. October 22, 1930. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: The writer's attention has been re- peatedly called by interested citizens of Dubuque toward condition of un- sightly, demolished or partly demo- lished building in the City. I am told that at the meeting of the Woman's Club Tuesday, October 21st, a plea was made to the City Council, espe- cially on two of these sites, namely the Cooper Building at Third and Locust and also a condemned house at Eleventh Street near Race Street. I find that on August 5th, 1930, the Building Inspector made the follow- ing recommendations: Demolish present house owned by C. C. McGregor at 737-739 West Elev- enth Street. Demolish present frame shed:; owned by J. Doyle Estate at 14 Lo- cust Street. Demolish old barn owned by J. E. Kringle at 1598 Jackson Street. Remove old rock house on the for- mer City of Dubuque property at 2417 Queen Street. This house was recently sold and the Building In- spector has been instructed to inter- view the present owner to hasten the tearing down of this house. Demolish the two story frame building owned by H. Pfotzer at Windsor Avenue and Ries Street. I am told that these matters were referred to the City Council for Council action at a later date. I would suggest that haste be made to clean up the hazards as above men- tioned. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. Councilman McEvoy moved that the City Manager and City Engineer be instructed to prepare plans for ,ctober 27th, 1930 the bringing up to grade the side- «alks adjoining the A. A.

Gentlemen: On April 7th, 1924 the City of Du- buque levied assessments of $96.69 respectively against lots 314 and 315 Ham's Addition for a district and sanitary sewer in Eagle Point dis- trict. These aforesaid lots 314 and 315 Ham's Addition appeared on the City's books in the name of Louis and Elizabeth Arthofer. After mak- ing one payment against said lots Mr. and Mrs. Arthofer appeared be- fore the City Council asking for a reduction of these assessments to $13.88 per lot which was granted by the City Council May 2nd, 1927. Before this change could be made the installment due for that year was sold to Mr. Edward Muntz at a tax sale. Inasmuch as this sale was in error, authority is now requeseted that the Auditor of the City of Du- buque be authorized to issue a war- rant in the sum of $34.84 to the Aud- itor of the County of Dubuque for the redemption of said certificate now owned by Mr. Muntz. The afore- said $34.84 represents only a refund as the amount had been collected and placed to the credit of the Spec- ial Assessment Fund. This question has been submitted to the City Solicitor who advises that this is the proper procedure in order to get the records straightened out. Respectfully submitted OTTO F.

Gentlemen: This is to advise that in connec- tion with the storm sewer work on Stoltz Street and Saunders Street awarded to the James F. Lee Pav- ing Co., that the work cannot be completed at the arbitrary date set in the contract, namely November 15th. The City Engineer and the writer feel that the concrete streets tinder maintenance by the James F.

Novem- ber the 15th. Accordingly. I would suggest that the time limit he extended one month which should amply provide fox tha final conrlitetion of this storm sewer project.

Rafoth for the sum of $3000.00 secured by a mort- gage of Lots 20, 21 and 22 in King's Grove Addition to the City of Du- buque. That the said Rafoth de- faulted in the payment of the inter- est on said note on March 1, 1930, and said note was past due, and this administrator brought and action to foreclose said mortgage. That. said mortgage has been foreclosed and bought in at sheriff's sale on behalf of said estate by this administrator. This administrator finds upon ex- amination that said property was sold to the City of Dubuque on De- cember 5, 1927, for the regular taxes of 1925 and 1926, and sold on De- cember 3, 1928, for the regular taxes of 1927, and again sold for regular taxes of 1928 on December 2, 1929, to the City of Dubuque. That said property was also sold to the City of Dubuque for sewer tax, bund No. 381, for the 4th and 5th installments on December 5, 1927, and for the 6th and 7th in- stallments on December 3, 1928, and December 2, 1929, respectively. That said property was also sold for special tax on Broadway Exten- sion for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th install- ments on December 3, 1928, to the City of Dubuque. Your applicant further states that the total amount actually invested by the laity of Dubuque in the above purchase at tax sales as reported by the City Treasurer is $974.93. That in addition to the above there are the regular taxes for the year 1929 now due with penalty in the sum of $204.16; special assess- ment for fund No. 381, $23.90; two Installments for special assessment Broadway Extension 1929 and 1930, $10.90.

Gentlemen: Mr. Sigman is compiling a list of names of all members of Commis- sions and Boards of the City, to- gether with their date of appoint- ment and date of term expiration. `6pecial Session, December 22nd, 1930 We have a question in regard to the intention of the Council in the Planning and Zoning Commission personnel. Section 2 of Ordinance No. 26-29 reads as follows: "The term of office of said mem- bers shall be five (5) years, ex- cept that the members first named shall hold office for such terms, not exceeding five years, that the terms of not more than one-third of the members will expire in any one year." We interpret this to mean that not over two expirations shall occur in one year. Accordingly we believe that the first two mentioned names or appointments are for the five year period, the third and fourth are for four year terms and the fifth and sixth are for three year terms and the seventh for a two year term. Inasmuch as undoubtedly these same members will be reappointed, it does not seem necessary to pass additional legislation if Council views this procedure as we do. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the communication be referred to the City Solicitor to prepare a reso- lution covering the same. Seconded by Councilman Andelfinger.

Gentlemen: In connection with the request of the City Treasurer, as reported in the Council December Sth, regarding his desire to sell Lot 319 Ham's Addition, Rhomberg Avenue near the Water Plant, please be advised as follows: The City purchased this lot May 24, 1924 for $875.00 in order to secure the right-of-way for sanitary sewer east of Rhomberg .avenue, flowing 436 Special_ Session, December 22nd, 1930 in a northerly direction. In addi. tion to the $875.00 purchase price, the City also has in a sewer assess- ment amounting to $96.69, or a total amount involved in the lot of $971.69. Mr. E. W. Giese has offered a maximum of $550.00 for Lot 319 with reservation to the City of the right- of-way -for the said sewer. The as- sessed valuation of Lot 319 is $360.00. The lot is a corner lot, having ap- proximately 50 feet frontage on Rhomberg Avenue and 127 foot front- age oil Hawthorne Street. Assessed valuation of Lot 318 to the north is $300.00 and Lot 317, $300.00, while the assessed valuations of Lot 320, with a house, is $1620.00, lot 321, with a house, $1425.00, a portion of Lot 322, $120.00 and portions of Lots 322, 324 and 325, totaling $160.00. This lot offers a possible future advantage to the Water Department, either for trade for property imme- diately in . front of the Water Plant, having a shorter depth, or possibly other uses of undetermined char- acter. It is the writer's recommendation that the offer of E. W. Giese of $550.00 be not accepted and that the authority be granted to deed said lot to the Water Department for the sum of $750.00, which I believe is a fair value for the use that may be applied to said property in the future by this department. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City '.Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved and the property be transferred to the Water Depart- ment. Seconded by Councilman Mc- Evoy. Carried by the -following vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, McEvoy and Schuckert. Nays—None. December 12, 1930. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: The following four small storm sewer requirements are brought to your attention. We ask that author. ity be granted for the City employees to purchase and install said drains with the expenses being charged to the storm sewer bond issue fund. (1) Extension of terra cotta pipe drain from the west terminus of the present storm culvert in Mt. Carmel Road about 500 feet south of Cannon Street. 30 feet of 24 inch terra cotta pipe furnished and laid, estimated price, $75.00 . (2) New pipe culvert at the east side of the Cascade Road at the inter- section of Mt. Carmel Road. 100 feet of 18 inch corrugated pipe and one inlet, estimated price, $250.00. (I have suggested the corrugated pipe rather than terra cotta pipe for the reason that there is a rock cut at this intersection) (3) On Green Street west of As- bury Street about 500 feet, 60 feet of 18 -inch corrugated iron culvert to lead storm water from the south side of Green Street to the gulley at the north side, estimated price, $100.00. (4) Oil the north side of Semin- ary Street at Keppler Street there is a present 20 -inch iron pipe dis- charging along a bank into Keppler Street hollow that is washing said Keppler Street and is damaging a fill matte by the property owner of a four family apartment house along the east side of Keppler Street. It is estimated that 50 feet of 20 -inch iron corrugated pipe and 50 feet of 24 -inch terra cotta pipe from the bottom of said fill to the rear of the apartment house property will avoid a possible future damage case at this intersection, estimated price, $250.00. Total estimated cost, $675.00. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the recommendation of the City :Man- ager be approved. Seconded by Coun- cilman Jansen. Carried by the fol- lowing vote: Yeas—Mayor Meuser, Councilmen Andelfinger, Jansen, McEvoy and Schuckert. Nays—None. December 12, 1930. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council. Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: In connection with the auditing of the City books every two years by the State Examiners, please be advised that the actiial cost for the last two years, as paid for in 1930, was $1,237.08. This charge was paid for in one fiscal year's appro- priation, while it covered the exam- ination of two fiscal periods. It is the writer's belief that an audit of any business the size of the City of Dubuque should occur at least once per year. Accordingly it is my recommendation that authority be granted to negotiate with the Auditor of State towards securing an annual audit which is estimated at approximately $700.00. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager. ii, S1lecial Session, I eccrnher 22nd, 1930 437 Councilman McEvoy moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council. Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: In the 1930 budget under the general head "Municipal Improvements" there has been spent to December 1st the sum of $3,514.83. It includes new construction on vari- ous storm sewers of the City since April 1st. I am told that the bond issue solri in September for storm sewers was to include the items totaling this amount. However, the expenditures were largely made before the pro- ceeds of the bend money were re- ceived. I ask that. authority be granted by the Council to transfer from the spe- cial bond fund for storm sewers to the consoli(hited fund the sum of $3,514.83. This will eliminate an overdraft in the Municipal Improve- ment section of the budget. Respectfully submitted, R. M. EVANS, City Manager.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: We herewith offer for your consideration and approval, certain changes in our electric light and power rates as applicable to your City. For some time we have been contemplating a rearrangement of electric rates for Dubuque, and atter mature consideration envolviug considerable study, we have arrived at a readjustment sof rates which gives our customers a material re- duction in their electric bills. It will be observed that all classes of service (except those hereafter noted) are affected, and that prac- tically all consumers, large and small, are benefitted. Although these changes are not warranted by the present state of our business and that we Are mak- ing considerable sacrifice in our an- nual earnings, we hope and feel that such sacrifice may be temporary and will result in greater use of electric service. In making this reduction we also have in mind our obligation to the public in helping to relieve the pres- ent financial condition of the coun- try. Reductions have been made in rates for Domestic lighting, Option- al Domestic Service, Commercial lighting, Small Power Service, Large Power Service and Street Lighting. No reduction has been made in our rate which applies to primary high voltage service, and to special con- tracts for wholesale service in large quantities. Our special electrical cooking rate also 'remains unchang- ed. These exceptions are now at the lowest rate which we can afford. At present, Residence and Commercial Lighting are served under a common rate, but the proposed changes con- template a segregation of these classes of service. The proposed Residence Lighting rate will apply strictly to single homes or single apartments; Com- mercial Lighting rates will apply to commercial businesses of all kinds, includinc combination business houses and residences. The Option- al Residence Lighting rates shall be available for single residences and apartments only, with the exception that such rates shall apply to re- frigeration and cooking in commer- cial houses where the service is sep- arately metered. but shall not apply to lighting in commercial houses. By Commercial houses we mean all stores, boarding houses, churches, theatres, schools and institutions of all kinds. IN Special Session, December 22nd, 1930 443 Small factories using light and power will take the Commercial lighting rate for their lighting load and the Power rate applicable to their particular lead. The 5% discount proposed for large power users applies only to the rate known as the Large Power Rate, and does not apply to special contract rates or primary metered customers. With the approval of your honor- able body we expect to put these changes of rates in effect as of Jan- uary first, 'Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-one. Schedules of present rates and proposed changes are hereto at- tached. Yours very truly, INTERSTATE POWER COMPANY, By Geo. E. Taylor, General Manager.

Gentlemen: The letter of Decem- ber 17, 1930, and the proposed changes in Light and Power rates attached thereto from the Interstate Power Company are resultant from the discussions and investigations started by the City Council with Mr. rharles Dove and the further power considerations and comparisons by Council on December 6th and 15th and the tentative approval of the same by Council December 20, 1930, sifter the conference with Messrs. G. E. Taylor and G. F. Maddock. The proposed rates include reduc- tions to the following service: Resi- dence Lighting, Optional Residence Lighting, Commercial Lighting, Small Power, Large Power and Street Lighting. No reductions have been made in the Cooking Rare, Large Power Rates "C" and "CC", and no reductions are made to spe- cial rate contracts. No rates have been increased in this proposal of rate changes. The proposed reductions occur at the be- ginning of each class of rates, thus benefiting all customers. Specific changes in the effected rate sched- ules are as following: (A). RESIDENCE LIGHTING, as proposed is separated front present Residence and Commercial Lighting schedule. A redaction of 1h cent per KWH is effective in each step up to a consumption of 2000 KWH per month. This new rate offers reduc- tion of 5% at 15 KWH and up to 7'-,r at 500 KWH per month. The minimum is and remains at $1.00 per month. (B). OPTIONAL RESIDENCE LIGHTING, as proposed, is based on same steps of KWH as present schedule. The change occurs in the cost to every consumer of the first 50 KWH per month minimum charge. Present rate is $4.45, while the proposed cost will be $4.25, a saving of $.20 per month. No other change is proposed in this schedule so that all optional customers will be reduced a flat $.20 per month. (C). COMMERCIAL LIGHTING, as proposed, is separated from Resi- dential Lighting. This schedule of- fers reductions in the first 200 KWH per month. The present cost for 200 KWH is $15.30 and the proposed will be $14.00, a saving of $1.30 or 9% At higher consumptions than 200 KWH the flat reduction of $1.30 per month will apply to each. The mini- mum bill per month will be $1.00, as at present. 445 (D). SMALL, POWER SERVICE, as proposed, includes a reduction of one cent per KWH" for the first 250 KWH per month. The present cost of 250 KWH is $17.50; the proposed cost will be $15.00, a saving of $2.50 or 14% at 250 KWH. Loads higher than 250 KWH will receive a pro- posed flat reduction of $2.50 per month. The minimum bill per month will continue to be $1.00 per Ii. P. of connected load. (E). LARGE POWER SERVICE, as proposed, is exactly as the present rate structure, except that a• Rat 5% reduction is made on each bill. The minimum of $1.00 per month per H. P. is the same as present minimum charge. (F). STREET LIGHTINC, as pro- posed, includes a reduction in nearly all classes of service of street and boulevard lighting and is calculated to be a 10% reduction. 600 C. P. overhead lamps will be reduced from $65.00 to $58.00 each per year; 400 C. P. overhead lamps will be reduced from $57.50 to $50.00 per year; 250 C. P. overhead lamps will be reduced from $42.50 to $35.00 per year, etc. The annual cost at present basis of charges and lights in service is $66,- 390.57. The proposed cost at the same basis will be $59,317.44, or a saving of $6,573.44 per year or 9.9%. The proposed change of rates in- cludes the following estimated re- ductions: Per Year. Residence Lighting ....$14,500.00 Optional Residence lighting 1,700.00 Commercial Lighting .......... 10,000.00 Small Power ...................... 1,200.00 Large Power .......................... 2,100.00 City Street Lighting ............ 6,500.00 Total Reductions ..........$36,000.00 The writer is gratified at the ac- tion of the Interstate Power Com- pany officials for their agreed upon rate reductions at this time. It is earnestly hoped that increases in in- dividual consumption will stimulate the electrical load to such an extent that other rate changes may be ef- fective in the near future. I wish to thank the City Council for the thorough and conscientious effort made within the last two months toward a comparison and study of light and power rates with other cities and the final culmination of this rate reduction which will ef- fect nearly every customer in Du- buque. It is recommended that acceptance on the part of the City" Council be made of the proposed redaction in 446- Special Session, December 22nd, 1930 Light and Power rates at this time.
