Realty Co., against the proposed
sanitary sewer 111 Green Street, stat-
ing that they are the owners of lots
13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 in Mill's West
Add. and they hereby protest against
the proposed sewer in Green Street
and across certain lots in Mill's
West Add. in said City for the rea-
son: That the area which would be
traversed by said proposed sewer is
for the most part unimproved, and
said Green Street is a portion there-
of, and is not graded or improved
and the construction of said pro-
posed sewer would be valueless in
that there would be no demand for
said property, that the route of said
proposed sewer is through uneven
terrain, and the probable cost there-
of will far exceed the estimate cost,
in that the subsurface is rocky and
construction work would be very
expensive.
Councilman Schuckert moved that
the petition be received and filed.
Seconded by Councilman Meuser.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas —Mayor Maclay, Councilmen
McEvoy, Meuser, Schuckert, Yount.

and 39 in said Addition, and lots 42,
43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48 and 49 in Rose-
dale Add., all in the City of Du-
buque, remonstrating against the
construction of a proposed sanitary
sewer in Adair Street, stating that
the route 'of said proposed sewer is
over and through an unimproved dis-
trict, the fact being that Adair
Street is merely a platted street and
the topograph over which platted
street extends is rough, hilly, cut by
ditches and waterways that extend-
ing from 14th Street to Rosedale
Ave., and along the entire route of
said proposed sewer there are prac-
tically no improvements. The Real-
ty Investors Corporation join in the
foregoing objections as affecting lot
No. 3 in Woodlawn Park Sub.
Councilman Schuckert moved that
the remonstrance be received and
filed. Seconded by Councilman
Meuser. Carried by the following
vote:
Yeas —Mayor Maclay, Councilmen

that Vernon Street be paved from
Mt. Pleasant Street to Glen Oak and
from Alta Vista Street to the east
edge of the valley running from

red to your City Manager for report.
Your City Manager wishes to re-
port that some years back both the

and in order to safeguard same, it
is recommended that the street be
paved as requested.
Very respectfully submitted,

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At your meeting held
February 28th, 1928, a petition from
the Dubuque Lumber & Coal Com-
pany and the Interlocking Cement
Block and Concrete - Company re-
questing that North First Street
from Rhomberg Avenue or the High
Bridge approach to the Mississippi
River be opened to traffic, was re-
ferred to your City Manager for re-
port.
This is to advise that your City
Manager has been in conference
with the interested parties several
times during the year and it has
been decided and agreed to not open
First Street as petitioned across the
railroad tracks, but to move a cer-
tain barn belonging to the Dubuque
Lumber & Coal Company and open
up the alley first north of the rail-
road tracks, making a connection
with the crossing at Lincoln Avenue
and First Street north of the track,
which will properly serve the pro-
perty owned by the petitioners and
it is entirely satisfactory with them.
Your City Manager therefore recom-
mends that the petition be filed with
no further action at this time.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRATZ,
City Manager.

foot alley between lots 8 and 9 Pros-
pect Hill Addition extending be-
tween the alley in West 3rd Street,
was referred to the Council to view

that your City Manager has inspect-
ed this proposition on the ground
and can see no reason why said
alley should not be vacated and so
recommends with a proviso that the
City retain a perpetual driveway
over said strip for the purpose of
laying water and sewer pipes if
same is deemed advisable in the

The following records on the mat-

tion of Wirt. Hanson in regard to the
canopy which was presented at the
Council meeting of October 15th,
1914.
"Petition of Wm. Hanson asking
the City Council to grant him per-
mission to erect a steel awning in
front of his place of business at
Twelfth and Iowa Street, presented
and read. On motion of Ald. Singrin
the petition was referred to the
Committee of the Whole and Mr.
Hanson notified to furnish a design
of the awning."
On November 19th, 1914, the fol-
lowing report of the Committee of
the Whole was adopted.
"On motion of Ald. Singrin the
various reports of the Committee of
the Whole were adopted. Your
Committee of the Whole, to whom
was referred the petition of W. M.
Hanson asking permission to erect
a steel awning along the entire front
of his store building situated on the
northwest corner of Twelfth and
Iowa Street, would respectfully rec-
ommend that the prayer of the peti-
tion be granted and the City At-
torney be instructed to draw up
waivers."
On December 3rd, 1914, the follow-
ing stipulations and agreement was
made a matter of record.
"Know all men by these presents.
That, whereas, William Hanson, of
the City and County of Dubuque,
Iowa, has petitioned the City Coun-
376 Regular Session, November 5th, 1928
cil for the right and privilege to
erect a steel awning in front of his
store, located on the corner of
Twelfth and Iowa Streets, said awn-
ing to extend out over the sidewalk
and braced upon steel poles placed
upon the sidewalk; and,
Whereas, said petition has been
viewed with favor by said City Coun-
cil; now,
Therefore said City Council does
hereby grant unto said William Han-
son the right to construct said awn-
ing and maintain the same upon the
following conditions, to wit:
(1) Said William Hanson shall
alone be responsible liable, in law
or equity, for damages which may
be caused in any way whatsoever
by reason of the maintenance of said
awning in said place, and said Han-
son shall appear and defend in any
suit in law or equity, which may be
brought against the City of Dubuque
by reason of the existence of said
awning and shall pay any judgment
which may be secured by anyone
against said City by reason of said
awning.
(2) Said William Hanson shall re-
move said awning at any time that
the City Council of the City of Du-
buque shall consider the same a
nuisance or a menace to the free use
of said sidewalk; and if said Wil-
liam Hanson upon notice received
through the proper officers of the
City of Dubuque to remove said awn-
ing should refuse to do so, the City
of Dubuque, by its Chief of Police,
shall have the right to go upon the
premises of said Hanson and with-
out the formality of any legal action
therefore, he shall have the right to
preemptorily remove the same.
(3) That nothing herein shall be
construed as giving to said Hanson
any right or privileges in addition
to those he already has in common
with all other residents, and it is
understood that the right herein
granted is merely a license revoc-
able at any time at the wish of the
• Council.
(4) Nothing herein shall be con-
strued as giving to said William
Hanson the right to obstruct the
sidewalk with barrels, boxes or oth-
er materials.
A signing of this stipulation shall
be deemed an acceptance of the con-
ditions hereof.
Signed this 28th day of November,
1914.
(Signed) W. H. HANSON.
On motion of Ald. Singrin the stip-
ulation and agreement was made a
matter of record."
You will note that paragraph 2
of the agreement gives the City
right to remove said canopy when-
ever deemed advisable, first notify-
ing Wm. Hanson or his estate and,
upon refusal, the Chief of Police is
given authority to remove same.
This is to advise that your City
Manager is notifying the Wm. Han-
son Estate to remove the canopy
which seems to be the wish of the
Council and a further report will
be rendered in regard to the matter
as we hope to report that the canopy
has been removed.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held
October 30th a communication from
the James F. Lee Paving Company
. stating that they had carried out or-
ders of your City Manager in the
various details as regards comple-
tion of their contract on Windsor
Avenue, was referred to your City
Manager for report. •
This is to advise that after a thor-
ough investigation of the improve-
ment as put in by the James F. Lee
Paving Company, your City Engin-
eer wrote them a letter stating in
detail the various things that it
would be necessary for then to do
before the work would be accepted
and at the time of Mr. Lee writing
the above mentioned letter to the
Council, some of the work had not
yet been done. As a matter of fact,
at the present writing some of the
excess material deposited in the
center parking strip by Mr. Lee in
grading the street has not yet been
removed. However, in a separate
report I am recommending the ac-
ceptance of the street, recommend-
ing that certain moneys due him be
withheld until the grading is finally
completed.

To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: I am transmitting
herewith a communication from the
James F. Lee Paving Company re-
questing an extension of time to
complete their contracts on South
Main Street from the present pave-
ment on South Main Street to Rail-
road Street and Railroad Street
from South Main Street to South
Locust Street and Spruce Street
from Julien Avenue to Wilbur
Street to June 1st, 1929.
Mr. Lee is at present endeavoring
to complete the improvement of
Plymouth Street and due to the late-
ness of the season it is deemed in-
advisable to tear up any additional
streets this year.
Mr. Lee was willing to start on
the paving of South Main Street
and Railroad Street directly after
being awarded the contract, but due
to the fact that Uhlrich -Paley Com-
pany had located their mixing plant
at the foot of South Main Street, it
was deemed inadvisable to allow
him to proceed for the reason that
the paving of the Rockdale Road
would be retarded and for that rea-
son I am recommending that the re-
quest of the James F. Lee Paving
Company for an extention of time
until June 1st, 1929, be granted as
they appear to have received a tele-
gram giving the consent of their
Bonding Company which is hereto
attached.
Very respectfully submitted,
O. A. KRATZ,
City Manager.

the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved. Seconded by

Notice of publication, certified to
by the publisher of notice to sewer
contractors that sealed bids will be
received until 10 o'clock a. m. No-
vember 22, 1928, for the construc-
tion of sanitary sewer 111 Nowata

City Manager Kratz reported that
the bid of Cook and Kean came in
approximately 15 minutes after the
appointed time, 10 o'clock A. M., as
per notice to contractors. However
if the City Attorney rules that this
is irregular, he recommends that all
bids be rejected and the Clerk be
instructed to readvertise for bids.
The City Attorney ruled that this
would be establishing a bad preced-
ent, and inasmuch as the Cook and
Kean bid came in after the time as
advertised, the bid should be reject-
ed and given to the next lowest
bidder, Uhlrich -Paley Co. being the
next lowest bidder.
Councilman McEvoy moved the
bid of Cook and Kean be rejected.
Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

Special Session, November 22nd, 1928
November 22, 1928.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In accordance with
your instructions and our advertise-
ment, bids were received at 10 A.
M. Thursday, November 22nd, 1928,
for the construction of a six inch
tile sanitary sewer in Nowata Street
from a point about one hundred and
thirty feet north of Julien Avenue
to West 14th Street and a six inch
tile sanitary sewer in West 14th
Street from the manhole in Adair
Street two hundred and fifty feet
easterly and an eight inch tile san-
itary sewer in Adair Street from
West 14th Street to Rosedale
Avenue.
Cook & Kean -825 feet of 6 inch
tile at $1.00; 1,826 feet, 5 inches
of 8 inch tile at $2.40; 2 drop man-
holes at $90.00; 9 standard man-
holes at $85.00; total, $6,153.60.
TJhlrich -Paley Co. -825 feet of 6
inch tile at $2.00; 1,826 feet, 5 inch-
es of 8 inch tile at $2.10; 2 drop
manholes at $125.00; 9 standard
manholes at $75.00; total, $6,410.65.
Engineer's Estimate — $6,629.15.
The bid of Cook & Kean came
in approximately fifteen minutes af-
ter the appointed time of 10 o'clock
as per our notice to contractors and
directly after the other bids had
been read and I am confident that
same is an honest bid. By that I
mean Cook & Kean did not profit
in any way by the information ob-
tained by the other bids and I there-
fore recommend that the contract
be awarded to them. However, if
the City Attorney rules that this is
irregular, I recommend that all bids
be rejected and the City Clerk be
instructed to readvertise for bids.
Respectfully submitted,
