For some months plans for this sewer have been in progress in the City Engi- neer's office. These plans are now practically complete. They provide for a 27 inch intercepting sewer on White Street from Sixth to Fif- teenth Street, which will intercept and take up the flow in the sanitary sewer from the hill district leaving the present 24 inch sewer, north of Sixth Street to take care of the north end of the city. The plans also provided for a 42 inch outlet sewer from this point, crossing the railroad tracks a little below Fourth Street, running close to the harbor and the shore line of the Mississippi River to a point some 350 feet below Mul- grew's Ice House, which will be its terminal. In connection with the construc- tion of the outlet sewer our plans also provide for the construction of an outlet storm sewer to intercept the flow of the present storm water sewer which empties into the tri- angular pond lying between the rail- road tracks from Fourth to Sixth Street, and turn this flow into the harbor. In the last budget which was made before the plans were started, we suggested a bond issue of $125,000 to defray the cost of this work. This was simply a guess and is' probably less rather than more than the en- tire cost of the work. It is my thought that this work should be divided into contracts, the one contract covering that part of the work lying north of the north line of Sixth Street and the same to be completed on or before the first day of May, next. The balance of the work including the outlet sanitary sewer and outlet storm sewer which forms the larger part of the work should be let in the other contract and the contractor should be given enough time to complete it so that he would be in .position to take ad- vantage of the best river and weath- er conditions. Iwould respectfully recommend that authoroty be given to advertise Regular Session, October 2nd, 1922 ed to prepare a plat and schedule showing the lots or parcels of real es- tate subject to assessment for said improvement and file the same in the office of the City Clerk subject to public inspection, and the City Clerk shall, upon receipt of such plat and schedule, publish notice of said as- sessment as is required•by law. Adopted October 2nd, 1922. Approved: JAMES ALDERSON, L. H. BREDDE, THEO. GABRIEL, ED. SCHREMPF, H. G. MELCHIOR, Councilmen. Attest: JOHN STUBER, City Clerk.

A communication from the Cham- ber of Commerce, stating that they had proceeded with plans for a com- munity 'rest - room and comfort sta- tion in the basement of the Cham- ber of Commerce building, at Ninth and Locust Streets, to the extent of securing an architect, blue prints, specifications and bids on the work, and now wish to lay the matter be- fore the City Council for considera- tion, stating that the total altera- tions, including the furnishings, would amount to approximately $3,- 000. It is the belief of the directors that this is a very needed project. The Chamber requests that the City appropriate sufficient money to pay for the alteration of the building and the furnishing of, said rest room and comfort station, and that Coun- cil make such further appropriation as would be necessary' for the sal- ary of a matron. The Chamber is willing to provide the heat, light, water and janitor service necesary in maintaining said rest room.

Gentlemen: With the construction of the new High School and the acquiring of the entirt tract down to Rosedale Avenue by the Board of Education, they propose to widen the present twenty -foot alley adjacent to their property, to make of it a full city sttreet. This alley, south of Mills West Dubuque Add., is a forty -two foot street. Lot 20 of Subdivision of Mineral Lot 179 intervenes be- tween Rosedale Avenue and the Milts West Dubuque Addition. This lot has been subdivided and there is prospects of a house being built so close to the present alley line aS to make it necessary, in widening the alley, to remove the house which it is now proposed to build. This street, if opened, would give a direct and short route from West Dubuque, .'Delhi Street district, to the new High School, and, in my judgment, should be a good and important thoroughfare leading to the new School. Mr. Westaby, the owner of this property, places a value on the twen- ty -two or twenty -five feet required for street purposes considerably in excess of what the entire lot was worth two years ago. For this rea- son I would recommend that pro- ceedings be started to condemn a sufficient strip for street purposes off of the west side of Lot 2 of the Subdivision of Mineral Lot 139. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Gabriel moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved and the prop- er resolution be prepared for con- demnation proceedings. Seconded by Councilman Melchior.

Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: Prior to the improvement of Sem- inary' Street. a corner should be a.c- entred off of Lot 47, Finley's Add., for street purposes. At the nresent time there is hard- ly room for an automobile to pass between the street car and the pole by the curb. i have endeavored to negotiate a Purchase with Mrs. Theresa. Pose Tamlin. owner of this property. and. while she is willing to sell the few feet needed by the City in order to widen the street at this point, her price is ridiculously high. I would therefore recommend that the neces- sary proceedings be started to con- demn this small plat of ground in order to widen the street at this point. Respectfully submitted, O. E.

City Council, Dubuque, ,Iowa. Gentlemen: On October 9th, bids were receiv- ed for the construction of - a sani- tary sewer in Audubon Street and in Fourteenth Street. These bids were reported to you at your meeting on October 10th. Edmund A. Linehan, who submitted the lowest bid, to- gether with a certified check for $350 as a guarantee that he would ac- cept -the contract if the same were awarded to him, is unwilling to exe- cute a contract for the work at the price bid. I would respectfully recommend that the contract be awarded to Cook & Kean, as their bid was the next lowest bid received for this work. The certified check as handed in with the bid of Edmund Linehan may be used as the Council thinks best, either returned to him, turned into the general funds of the City or hold to apply on the cost of the work, Cook & Kean's bid being about $1,530 higher than the bid as sub- mitted by Edmund Linehan.

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At the meeting of the Council held on October 10th, a petition signed by the members of the Police De- partment, asking that they be al- lowed one day off every two weeks, was referred to the City Manager. I feel that the request is a very rea- sonable one and that the same should be allowed. On the other hand, to grant the request and keep our force up to its present strength would require an addition of three men, which would mean an increas- ed outlay from this time to the first of next April, the beginning of our next fiscal year, of about $2,000. We have no appropriation for this ad- ditional expense and the general funds of the city do not warrant a further outlay than is already auth- orized without piling up a defiecit. It is therefore my recommendation that the request as made by the po- lice force be granted, the same to be effective April 1st, 1923. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Schrempf moved that the recommendation, of the City Manager be approved and the prayer of the petition be granted, the same to be effective April 1st, 1923.

Gentlemen: The petition of property owners in the vicinity of Brecht's Lane, ask- ing that that alley be improved with a tar and gravel preparation, was referred to the City Manager at the meeting of the Council on October 10th. Investigation shows that this lane was improved at the expense of the owners of the abutting prop- erty in 1909. In driving over it,. it appears to have been improved by paving With large • rocks, which makes it about the same as an old - fashioned • cobble stone pavement. There is, however, almost no traffic on the alley excepting foot traffic and there is a • fairly god pathway for foot traffic. It would, of course, be better to have the alley paved by a smooth pavement which would be better to walk upon and which would be more easily kept clean. If • this lane is Improved it should be done at the expense of the own- ers of • the abutting property. Most of the petitioners do • not live ad- jacent to the improvement. At least one of the owners of abutting prop- erty objects to a. further assessment on account of this lane. •I would therefore recommend that the im- provement of Brecht's Lane be de- ferred for the present. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Gabriel moved that the 'recommendation of the City Manager be approved and the im- provement' on this Lane be deferred for the present.

I beg to advise that I have examined into this matter and find that the request which the Board of Education makes is not for the cancellation of taxes past due but rather is intended to request that the property described in their peti- tion be exempeted from taxation for .the year 1922 and subsequent years upon the ground that the property is used for educational pur- poses. With this view in mind it is proper that you grant the petition and instruct the Clerk to notify the County Auditor to place this proper- ty upon his books taxation free. The thought in the minds of the Board of Education was that it is possible that this property is being assessed to the original owners and not to the School District and in order that it might not be carried for tax- ation the matter should be correct- ed at this time. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor.

McInerney for a reduction of assessment for sewer on Pierce street was referred to the City Man- ager. Mr. McInerney owns the follow- ing property in Quigley's Sub. of Out Lot No. 711: Lot Assessed Sewer Assm't Reduc- No. value Assm't rec. tion 5 100 $92.78 $37.50 $55.28 12 100 82.34 30.00 52.34 13 80 82.34 25.00 57.34 14 900 82.34 82.34 00.00 15 60 82.34 20.00 62.34 $422.14 $194.84 $227.30 I would respectfully recommend that the assessments be reduced as above shown. I also have a' protest from Phil Ryder, the owner of lots 7 and 8 of Quigley's Sub. of Out Lot No. 711 assessed on the same im- provement $92.78 each. I would rec- ommend that the assescment on these lots be fixed at $37.50 each giving him a reduction of $110.56. I would further recommend that the City Auditor be instructed to draw a warrant for $337.86 on the General fund in favor of the Special Improvement Fund in order to make up for these assessment reductions. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Melchior moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved and the City Auditor be so instructed; seconded by Councilman Schrempf ; carried by the following vote: Yeas —Mayor Alderson, Council- men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior, Schrempf. Nays —None. City Council, Dubuque, Iowa, Gentlemen: — At the Councilmeting of Oct. 23rd the Quit Claim Deed of Henry Young and his wife for a 15 -foot strip off of the north side of lot 4 of Sub. of Mineral lot 68, the same to become a part of Solon was referred to the City Manager for re- port. The part of Solon Street now opened is 50 feet in width. A strip 25 feet in width has been set aside across from the Young property for street purposes to be dedicated as soon as Young would give 26 feet off of his property. The man having this property in control states he is unwilling to deed it for street purposes unless Young gives 25 feet. Special Session, October 30th, 1922 575 My recimmendation is that this deed be returned to Mr. Young with, the request that it be made for twenty -five and not fifteen feet. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Melchior moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved and the deed be returned to Mr. Young request- ing him that it be made for 25 feet and not for 15 feet; seconded by Councilman Schrempf; carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council- men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior, Schrempf. Nays —None. City Council, Dubuque. Gentlemen: At the meeting of the City Council held on October 23, remonstrances of N. M. Sutton and Mrs. Ellen McClain against the as- sessments for the Hill Street im- provement were referred to the City Manager for investigation and re- port. Mrs. McClain is the owner of Lot No. 19, P. T. Wooten Addition, as- sessed for the Hill Street improve- ment $437.03, and valued for taxa- tion at $320. In my judgment a fair value of the lot is $1,000.00. A fair assessment would then be $250.00, or a reduction of $187.03. Sutton owns Lot No. 4, Watter's Add., assessed at $560. Street as- ::essment of $325.18. I would recom- mend that this lot be valued at $1,100.00, and that the assessment be made $275.00, to corespond with this value. I would also recommend that the City Auditor be requested to draw a warrant on the General Fund in favor of the special assessment and for $237.20 to make up for the above suggested reductions. Respectfully submitted, O. E. CARR, City Manager. Councilman Brede moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved, the reductions as re- commended be made and the City Auditor be so instructed. Seconded by Councilman Melchior.
