Gentlemen: At the Council meet- ing held May 6th, 1929, a verbal pro- test of Mr. George W. Holmes, own- er of the west 80 feet of subdivision of lots 14 and 15 Bush's Subdivision, protesting against his assessment for the construction of sanitary sewer in Burns and Oak Streets was referred to your City Manager for report. The total amount of Mr. Holmes' assessment for the construction of said sewer is $202.71 and your City Manager inspected this proposition on the ground and finds that Mr. Holmes' property is accessible and can be connected to the sewer with perhaps some rock excavations as is necessary for all property in this district and that ordinarily his as- sessment is a proper one inasmuch Mr. Holmes has a frontage of 95.8 feet and with a $3.00 assessment lim- itation on that frontage the assess- ment could be made up to $287.40. Your City Manager has made an investigation of damage done to plas- tering inside the house due to blast- ing while constructing the sewer and wishes to recommend that an allow- ance be made Mr. Holmes on his assessment of $50.00 on account of said damage and that the City fur- nish the air compressor without cost to Mr. Holmes when he desires to make a connection to the sewer. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman McEvoy moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved and the City Aud- itor be instructed to draw a warrant in favor of Mr. Holmes in the sum of $50.00 he to indorse same to the City to apply on his special assess- ment.

Immediately upon receipt of this communication I took the matter up with Mr. John Kerper of the Dock Commission and it is his opinion that if a 65 foot clearance is maintained that no objection should be made to the crossing and I therefore recom- mend that the U.
