Pleasant Street to Glen Oak and from Alta Vista Street to the east edge of the valley running from Glen Oak and Alta Vista, was refer- red to your City Manager for report. Your City Manager wishes to re- port that some years back both the curb and gutter had been installed on the portion requested to be paved and in order to safeguard same, it is recommended that the street be paved as requested. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Meuser moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved.

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. Councilman Schuckert moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved. Seconded by Councilman Yount.

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.

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.
