City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen In connection with the
assessments ac levied last year for
sewer and water connection in Low-
ell street an assessment was levied
against Joseph Birner, the owner of
Lot 112 Mechanic's Add. amounting
to $22.01. This was on the basis
of the report as made by Mr. Lee
as to the work which he had done.
We find that this report was in
error and no connection was laid to
the above described property. The
amount of this assessment was de-
ducted from the payment which was
later made to Mr. Lee so in order
to straighten out the entire matter,
the assessment as levied against
Joseph Birner should be ordered
cancelled by the City Council.
Respectfully submitted,
O. H. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved, the assess
ment against Mr. Birner be cancelled

Council,
D City ubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At the meeting of the
City Council held on July 7th, pet-
ition of Joseph P. Nines, asking that
the accompanying check for $30.60
be accepted as payment in full for
two old street assessments against
Lot 3 of Sub. of Min. Lot 178, was
referred to the City Manager.
On investigation I find that the
facts are as stated. The one assess-
ment was levied in 1898 and the
other in 1912. The check is payment
in full up to the time of the sale
and I believe under the circumstanc-
es should be accepted by the city.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the prayer of the petition be grant-
ed, the check be accepted, and the
Treasurer upon receipt of same be
instructed to oancel the assessment
and surrender the tax sale certificate.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen: Some time ago the
James F. Lee Paving Company filed
a statement with the City Manager
of bills claimed to be due him from
the City for extra work and mater-
ials furnished in connection with
improvement work during the years
le 5 y -32 and 23. and also a hill far non -
alties on contracts, the various
amounts of which were retained by
the City, amounting in all to $1728.26.
On the other hand the City made
claims against this firm for water
furnished to it and penalties upon
contracts for the year 1922, these
claims amounting to $706.00.
After several co iferences between
the parties it was deemed advisable
that these claims be adjusted by a
Board of Arbitration rather than
gation in Court, and it was decided
that the Board of Arbitration con.
sist of the attorneys represening the
different parties and W. H. Smith
of the firm Hurd, Lenehan, Smith
and O'Connor. The Arbitration meet-
ings were held for several days and
it was agreed that each party pay
one -half of the cost of the services
of Mr. Smith. The work of the Ar-
bitration Committee has been coin -
pleted and the result thereof is that
it is found that the city is indebted
to Mr. Lee, after making all proper
deductions for penalties and water
claims held by the City, in the sum
of $598.53. As both parties are
bound by the final adjustment and
derision of the Arbitration Board it
will be necessary for the City to
pay Mr. Lee this amount and I there-
fore recommend that a warrant be
drawn in his favor for the amount
above stated. In arriving at this
amount proper deduction has been
made for the water bill which is
due the water department amount-
ing to $160.49 and I assume that the
proper way to handle this amount
would be to have a warrant drawn
on the general fund in favor of the
water department in the amounts
figured.
The amount which the City owes
Mr. Smith for his services in this
connection is $70.00 and I recom-
mend that a warrant be drawn in
favor of W. H. Smith as Arbitrator
in that amount.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEH,
City Solicitor.

CITY COUNCIL
(Official.)
Special Session, July 16th, 1924.
Meeting called by order of Mayor
Alderson and Councilman Schrempf.
Council met at 4:30 P. M.
Present —City Manager Carr, May-
or Alderson, Councilmen Brede, Ga-
briel, Melchior, and Schrempf.
Mayor Alderson is the Chair.
Mayor Alderson read the call and
stated that service thereof had been
duly made and that this meeting is
called for the purpose of adjusting
the assessments for the improve-
ments of Julien avenue from Delhi
street to Delhi street, Walsh street
from West Third street to Douglas
street, levy the assessments as cor-
rected and acting on any other bus-
iness that may come before the meet-
ing.
The report of the committee com-
posed of the Mayor, City Manager,
City Solicitor and City Engineer, on
the remonstrances referred to them
for investigation and report, being
the remonstrances against the assess-
ments as levied for the improvement
of Julien avenue from Delhi street
near Mt. Pleasant avenue to Delhi
street near Auburn street, presented
and read.
July 16th, 1924.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: Your committee ap-
pointed to investigate requests for
reductions in assessments levied on
account of the improvement of Jul-
ien avenue from Delhi street to Del-
hi street, have gone over the street
and have included in our report
some reductions which were not re-
quested but to which we feel the
property owners are entitled. We
shall not report on requests which
we did not feel were justified on
account of the value of the property
assessed.
Lot 2 of Sub of 46, 47, 48 and 2
of 49 of Morheiser's Add. belonging
to Berdina Bush and Virginia E. B.
Robinson assessed $161.56. We con-
sider this strip to be practically
without any value and would sug-
gest the assessment be entirely can-
celled. The assessment as levied
against 2 of 1 of 1 of Mineral Lot
172 belonging to the same parties
amounts to $3,137.72. Aproximately
one -half of this lot lies so much
lower than Julien avenue that the
improvement is of questionable bene-
fit to this half of the property. We
would therefore recommend that
this assessment be reduced to one-
half of the assessment which natur-
ally falls on this property, or
$1568.86.
Lots 1, 2 and 3 of Sub of Lot 12
of Mineral Lot 172 belonging to An-
ton Zwack we recommend be reduced
to $150.00 per lot or a total reduc-
tion of $462,15 on the improvement
of Julien avenue.
Lot 11 of Loetscher and Trueb's
Sub., owned by Brunskill we recom-
mend be valued for assessment pur-
poses at $600 which would make the
assessment for the improvement of
Julien avenue $160. or a reduction
of $128.29.
Lot 12 Loetscher & Trueb's Sub.,
belonging to J. B. Meyers is assessed
$280.09 for the improvement of Jul-
ien avenue and $238.91 for the im-
provement of Stewart- street. A fair
value of this property, as fixed by
the Committee, is $750.00 which
would make the total assessment for
the improvement of the two streets
$375.00, a reductin of $144.00.
Lot 10 Loetscher & Trueb's Sub.,
owned by C. H. Reynolds was as-
sessed $142.57 for the improvement
of Stewart street. We would rec-
ommend a value for assessment pur-
poses of $500.00 which would make
a reduction of $17.57 in his assess-
ment.
Lot 13 and 14 of Loetscher &
Trueb's Sub., property of L. J. La
Briga we recommend be valued at
$1000 each for assessment purposes,
making the assessment $250.00 for
each lot. The assessment on account
of the improvement of Julien aven-
ue on lot 13 is $287.74 and on lot
14 is $330.15. This would give a
reduction on the two lots of $117.89.
Lot 13 is also assessed $254.29 for
the improvement of Stewart street
and we recommend a further reduc-
tion on this lot of $4.59.
It is the opinion of the committee
that the value of all other property
on Julien avenue and Stewart street
will exceed four times the amount
of the assessments.
The total reduction on assess-
ments carried in this recommenda-
tion is $2604.91. We would further
recommend that a warrant be drawn
on the General Fund in favor of the
Special Improvement Fund to make
up for these reductions in case the
same are approved by the Council.

A Resolution.
Whereas, remonstrances have been
filed with the City Council by the
o wners of the property herein de-
scribed against proposed assess-
ments to pay for the improvement
of Julien avenue from Delhi street
to Delhi street which remonstrances
have received the consideration of
the City Council.
Be it therefore, resolved that the
following corrections be made.
That the assessment against Lot
2 of Sub. of 46, 47, 48 and 2 of 49

172 be reduced to $150.00 per lot.

On the remonstrance of T. J. 14Iul-
grew against the assessment as lev-
ied against his property for the im-
provement of Walsh street, the com-
mittee makes the following report:
July 16th, 1924.
City Council,
Gentlemen: At the meeting of
the City Connell on Monday, July
14th, the petition of T. J. Mulgrew
asking for reduction on the assess-
ment levied against his property, Lot
Special Session, July 16th, 1924 343
1 of Sub. 2 of Boxleiter's Sub. was
referred to the undersigned commit-
tee for investigation and report.
The amount to be levied against
Mulgrew's property was $1185.74. We
would recommend that this be re-
duced to $500.00 making a reduction
of $685.74.
We also find two other lots on
this road which in our judgment are
entitled to a reduction. Lot 1 of
the Sub. of 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 College
Add, Is forty -four feet wide. The
assessment to be levied is $326.38.
We would recommend that this be
reduced to $200.00 making a reduc-
tion of $126.38.
Also lot 7 of College Add. is to be
assessed $390.84. We would recom-
mend that this assessment be re-
duced to $250.00 or a reduction of
$140.84.
The total reductions recommended
to property on Walsh street amounts
to $952.96. If the above recommend-
ations are approved by the Council
we would recommend that a warrant
be drawn on the General Fund in
favor of the Special Improvement
Fund for $952.96.

T. J. Mulgrew addressed the Coun-

provement , stating that he was hit
hard by the assessment for this
street, however he thanked the Coup•

in the assessment, and although still
high, according to the valuation of

er, requesting a reduction on the as-
sessment against Lot 1 of the Sub.

Stewart street, was referred to the
undersigned committee for investiga.
tion and report.

der question has no frontage on

gest that the assesment for the im-
provement of Stewart street be fixed
at $80.00 making a reduction of
$31.03.
If this recommendation is approv-
ed by the City Council, we would
further recommend that a warant be
drawn on the General Fund in favor
of the Special Improvement Fund to
make up for this reduction.
