Dear Sir: Complying with stipu- lations in special Ordinance which was adopted by the City Council on the 6th day of August in which per- mission was given to the Interstate Power Co. to abandon street car tracks on Central Avenue and Wind- sor Street and the substitution of bus service in lieu of street car ser- vice. This Ordinance carried a request that the Interstate Power Co. file a formal acceptance of the terms of this Ordinance, and inasmuch as it is my understanding that it is the desire and request of the City Coun- cil and yourself that all rails be re- moved, and that such ties as are im- bedded in crushed rock sub -base be removed, but that ties which are laid in concrete sub -base wil not be removed, but that the top of these ties will be treated with a moisture proof asphaltic coating, and that all pavement is to be re- placed in good condition. That portion of the track wh(—t ties are imbedded in concrete sub- base lies between 1lerz Street an the end of the present pavemen' . which is near the entrance of I,1� - wood cemetery. The Interstate Power Company hereby accepts the terms and con- ditions as outlined in this Ordinance and described herein. Very truly Yours, INTI?RS'I AE POWER CO, By C. E.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held August 3rd a communication from Philip F. Ryder protesting against the proposed pavement of Pierce Street from West Locust to Angella Street, was referred to your City Manager and City Solicitor for re- port. As your City Solicitor has been ill, it has been impossible for your City Manager to report on the com- munication. However, your City Manager discussed the matter with your City Solicitor and your City Manager wishes to report as follows on the matter. Mr. Ryder states that lots 7 and 8 of Quigley's Subdivision, which are owned by himself, have an as- sessed valuation of from $60.00 to $78.00 and that the assesment for the Proposed improvement will run from $160.00 to 175.00 per lot which would materially exceed the one- tourth assessed valuation. Where streets are necessary for public benefit to serving territory such as will be served by the pave- ment of Pierce Street to give pro- per fire protection, it is your City Manager's opinion that even though a portion of the cost of the improve- ment must be borne by the City, that the improvement should pro- ceed and so recommends. It is your City Solicitor's opin- ion that an assesment for street im- ment is legal if it does not exceed one-fourth of the true value of the property after the improvement has been made, in which case the differ- ence between the value of the pro. perty and the assessment on account of the improvement, will not be so great. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ., City Manager. Councilman McEvoy moved that the report of the City Manager be approved and adopted. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: As I understand the Council has indicated its willingness to have submitted to the electors of the City of Dubuque the question of the purchase of Olinger Park for Playground purposes providing the price was fixed at $27,500.00, and In - as much as such price has now been agreed to by the owners of this Property, I immediately prepared a, Petition and had a. large number of them printed so that the same may be circulated at once for the neces- sary signatures. Before the Council is authorized to call a special elec- tion for this purpose, a petitior signed by at least 25% of the total number of votes cast at the last regular municipal election must be submitted to the Council, requesting the calling of such election. In order that the election may be held in conjunction with the general elec- tion to be held on November 6, 1928, these petitions must be put into cir- culation at once so that they will be on file not later than the last day of next week, since the resolution call- ing the election must be acted upon by the Council and adopted at its regular meeting in October. The no- tice calling the election must be published once a week for four con- secutive weeks and the election can- not be held less than five days nor more than 20 days after the last publication. So you will be impress- ed with the necessity of having all petitions signed and filed before the first day of October next. Judges and Clerks of Election and registra- tion officials must also be appointed at this time and arrangements should be made whereby the same judges and clerks and registration officials who will have charge of the general election will also serve for this election. This was done in con- nection with the submission of the creation of a Dock Board in 1925 and worked satisfactorily. It ought to be arranged again. I have prepared an option agree- ment which the owners of the prop- erty, through their authorized attor- ney in fact, Mr. Elfmann, are ready to sign and the same is herewith submitted. In order to give the Mayor authority to execute this agreement on behalf of the city a resolution should be adopted, and T have prepared such resolution and recommend its adoption at this meeting. You will observe that this option provides that the city may purchase this property for $27,500 and is so conditioned that it is de- pendent upon the affirmative vote of the electors at the special election to be held on November 6, 1928. It continues in force until December 15, 1928, at which time it is expected that all of the proceedings will be taken by the Council which are nec- essary to authorize the issuance of the bonds and that the bonds will be sold by that time. I have figured out the time and believe all pro- ceedings can be completed by the time stated if the Council acts promptly upon all matters connected therewith. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. Resolution Authorizing the Mayor to Execute Option Agreement for Purchase of Olinger Park on Be- lialf of the Cl'-- of Duuque.

TY OF DUBUQUE. W. H. ELFMAN. By JOHN H. MACLAY, Mayor. Report of S. G. Creswick, Who Was Appointed to Itepresent tile City of I)ubuque at Conference Relative to Project of \ire -Foot ('hannel on Upper Mississippi River. The conference convened at the Nicollet Hotel, Minneapolis, 10 A. M. September 14th, C. C. Webber, of Minneapolis, presiding. It was called for the purpose of arousing interest in the Mississippi Valley Cities and to file protest with the Board of En- gineers, Washington, D. C., against City the report of Major Hall, U. S. Army Engineers, Rock Island, Ill., who re- cently submitted to his superiors a report unfavorable to the construe - tion of a nine -foot channel on the Mississippi river, St. Louis to the Twin Cities inclusive. The basis of the adverse report of Major Hall is that "the maximum savings per ton mile clue to transportation on a nine- ot f foot channel over those he a six -f Oal depth, multiplied by f ton mileage of barge traffic, are en- d tirely insugicient to repay imum cost of the proposed improve - e ment." y the ad - r verseeinterest aroused rePort is very keen.b Reps sen - 6, tatives from all principal cities n along the Mississippi river, including I I Chicago, ererpresentaandity and letters o Sioux Cityy w 298 Special September 19th, 1925 were received from other cities en- dorsing the conference, but unable to send representatives. The ser- iousness of the conditions created by the report were not minimized. It was recognized that prompt and careful preparation is necessary not only to over turn the adverse report but also to convince the Board of Engineers that the construction of a nine -foot channel is necessary and vital to the welfare of the middle west. The report is made pursuant to Act of Congress and must be ap- proved by the Board of Engineers and General Judwin, Chief of En- gineers, and finally approved by the Rivers and Harbors Committee• of Congress. Considerable discussion of the situation was manifested at the conference. It was felt that Major Hall had gone beyond his knowledge when basing his report on the po- tential tonnage available for barge line movement, his experience fitting him to cover the engineering feat- ures only. The report does not state that a ninefoot channel is impossible from an engineering standpoint. Some of the reasons set out in fav- or of a nine -foot channel on the Up- per Mississsippi River are: (1) The necessity for an economic outlet for the commerce of the middle -west and as an aid to the farmer. (2) The co-ordination of all major inland waterway improvements on a uni- form depth, the lower Mississippi and Ohio rivers now having, or in the process of construction, nine - foot channels; the proposals to build nine -foot channels on the Illinois River and on the Missouri from St. Louis to Kansas City, and 3rd the discriminatory freight rates and ad- justment against the middle -west cities created by the construction of the Panama Canal. It was the unanimous decision of the conference that action should be taken to defeat the adverse report of Major Hall. The protest to be filed with the Board of Engineers will be supported by engineering and ton- nage data. The conference elected an executive committee which Ls ar- ranging hearing before the Board on October 15th. The tonnage data from Dubuque is being gathered together by the Dubuque Shippers' Associa- tion. The City of Dubuque is vitally in- terested in the successful outcome Of this fight for a nine -foot channel. A six-foot channel on the Upper river means that we will be on the "narrow gauge division" of a great transportation system with all its operating difficulties and inability to handle "a maximum volume of ton- nige. The real success of transpor- tation on the Upper Mississippi river which is of tremendous importance to our local industries and the indus- trial development of Dubuque as well as to this territory generally, depends upon a nine -foot channel and this reason coupled up with our investment in river terminals neces- sitates our full support be placed behind the efforts now being made for an adequate channel, which will enable maximum development of the Upper river for commercial traffic to be attained.

John H. :Maclay, Mayor, and Members of the City Council of the City of Dubuque, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: Your petitioner re- spectfully represents that she was on or about the 18th day of January, 1901, appointed, and thereabouts qualified. and is now, and has been since said date, the duly acting ad- ministratrix of the Estate of Mar- garet O'Shea, deceased. That said Margaret O'Shea, de- ceased, left city property title to which vested in her heirs at the time of her death, known and described as follows, to -wit: Lot No. 5 of the Subdivision of Subdivision of Mineral Lot 28, in the City of Dubuque. Iowa. That said described lot is now known and designated as "Mineral Lot 28, Lot 4, and abuts on South Grandview Avenue, in the City of Dubuque." The undersigned respectfully rep- resents that the City has assessed or attempted to assess to said property, for water connections, a sum aggre- )ecial Session, September 19th, 1928 219 gating Four. Hundred and 62-100 1 0 Dollars, ($400.62), with accumulated s interest. That the said City of Dubuque on or about the 23rd clay of December, 1926, paid the delinquent assessment i and took a certificate of sale, at- tempting thereby to attach by said act a lient to said property to cover 1 the assessment so levied. The undersigned now claims that said certificate is null and void and of no force and effect, by reason of the failure in the part of the City of Dubuque, and its duly constituted of- ficers to secure service of the notice upon the undersigned in her repre- sentative capacity as Administratrix of the Estate of said Margaret O'Shea, deceased. That by reason of the failure of said City to give said notice as re- quired by law, the heirs holding title to this real estate had no knowledge of the contemplated action on the part of the City to levy said assess- ment. The undersigned further repre- sents that the City Council failed to comply with the provisions of the law as set out in Section 5982 of the Code of 1924, in the following par- ticulars, to -wit: First: There is no report on file by the City Manager, who, under Chapter 328, Section 66669, Par. 12, Is charged with the management of the Municipal Water plants, showing that he made a report to the Council of Lots and names of the owners, and the requirements in respect to connections from any water main or pipes to the curb line of the abutting and adjacent property. on Grand- view Avenue where this property is located. Second: An investigation of the files fails to disclose any notice served upon, the undersigned as Ad- ministratrix of the Estate of Mar- garet O'Sjtea, deceased. Third: There is no report on file showing that the Water Works Trus- tees, or the Manager put in said con- nections, and no certificate as to the cost of same returned by the Mana- ger, or said Water Works Depart- ment. Fourth: The resolution directing that these connections be made, and the paragraph with relation thereto, reads as follws: "Install sewer, water and gas con- nections to every lot; in case a lot has more than 50 foot frontage ad- ditional connections to be installed to furnish one connection for every 50 feet." The City Map, and the Plat rec- ords of this property. in the Record I Plats, Dubuque County, Iowa, how that it is acreage property and not sub -divided. Therefore, the City Council ex- ceeded its authority under the law n directing or attempting to make a connection for every 50 feet, and charging same against this particu- ar property. Our Supreme Court has said, with relation to this matter, the follow- ing: It therefore follows, that where more than one sewer or water con- nection is charged against any in- dividual lot or acreage which has not been subdivided, the town is acting wholly without jurisdiction, and that an injunction should issue accord- ingly." I have paid to date for gas con- nections Seventy-seven and .01-100 Dollars ($77.01). I have paid for sewer connections an aggregate of Two Hundred Thirty-seven and 70-100 Dollars ($237.70). On the street improvement Seven Hundred Four and .05-100 Dollars ($704.05): or aggregating One Thousand Eigh- teen and 76-100 Dollars, $1,018.76). I refuse to pay the illegal assess- ment for water connections but am willing and do hereby offer to tender to the City, in lieu of taking this matter into court, the actual expense or cost of one connection, less any interest charge, as I do not believe I should be charged with interest in- asmuch as I have always been pre- pared to pay, without admitting that I am now legally liable for same, just what the law allows to be charged against my property. I am aged and feeble; my means are very limited and I respectfully submit this petition, tendering set- tlemen on a legal basis, in the hope that it consid- eration natyreceive tilehandsaofryor honor- able body. While I claim that the Estate, with the objections pointed out herein. is not liable for any sum, I amnnever- theless willing out of my to reimburse the City for one water connection from the water main to the curb.

Gentlemen: In order that our En- gineering Department may prepare the necessary plans and specifica- tions for our 1929 improvement pro- gram and so that the Water Depart - men and Gas Company can plan their purchase of materials for the extension of mains for 1929, I am submitting the following streets which I am recommending for pave- ment during the year 1929. Dodge Street from the easterly line of Grandview Ave. to the west- erly line of Bryant. Dodge Street between the above mentioned lim- its is 50 feet between curbs and fc is my recommendation that th,, street be paved with a central park- ing 10 feet in width similar to the improvement of Grandview Ave., the improvement to include the installa- tion of necessary light cable and th installation of central post lights. This street is one of the most trav eled streets in our city and is be coming very rough and in need o costly maintenance if same is no paved. I also recommend that Dodg Street from the east line of Sout Locust Street to the railroad track just east of Main Street be pave to a width of 40 feet between curb It is my opinion that when thi street is paved that the at at e trouble that we are having present time at the intersection South Locust Street and Dod Street will be eliminated and sa' street will receive a large amour of the traffic coming from the 1'i and entering our business district. The central 18 feet of South L Gust Street from Railroad Street end of the pavement just north Charter Street has been paved the State Highway Commission a in order that this street may recei its full usage, it will be necessa for the city to pave a strip approxi- mately 10 feet on each side of the central paving strip in order to fully pave the street to the curbs and take care of the drainage in a pro- per manner and for that reason I am recommending that this improve- ment be made by 1929. At the present time there is no paved street north of 24th Street connecting Windsor Ave. and Jack- son Street and in ordt•r to expedite trafRc in this district I wish to I - ommend that East 29th' Street be paved full width from the uorthec9} and easterly line of Jackson Street to the nortl'erly and easterly line ut Pinard Street and from the northol- ly and easterly line of Pinard :,tri.c-i to a cannection with La'��Iher Slie0l and Lawther Street from its connec- tion with East 29th Street to thy• southerly and westerly line of Bur- den Ave. be paved to a width of 2-4 feet and that the necessary con- crete curbs be included in the im- provement. At your meeting held July" '_:1ni a petition signed by •49 propel1.\ ers in the Linwood district- ing that Davis Street and Sheridan Place be improved in order to 1'a" fl- itate the bus operations in Illi,' dis- tract was referred to me for report and I now wish to reconrnn•nll tinct the south one-half of Davis -\vo. be paved to a width of 20 fet•t, includ- ing concrete curbs, feom the west- erly line of Burden Street to the westerly line of Windsor Ave. and that Burden Street be paved from the southerly line of O'Neill Street to the southerly line of Davis Ave. which will make a very desirable e loop for bus operations. Iu order that the Jefferson high _School may be more accessible and to connect up the paved srieets nn�� t running to the hill on which .Ic ffcr t son High School stands. 1 recommend that Stafford tit rcpt b� e paved full width between �•urbs franc h the northely and westerly line of s Garfield Ave. to the southerly line' cl of Linwood Cemetery. s We had St.. B4ary: Sheet t'c to the s south line of 'third NuFct to the er north line of Emme'' ti11(wt and c' Emmett Street from St. Mary's of Street to Bluff Street on ouc 192ti g e program of paving, but at the re - td quest m the property owners af- rt fected, it was decided to delay the 11 improvement until 1929 and 4n order' to safeguard the city against a con - retaining t- siderable ext and in or - of for to wall on St. Mary's Stl"' of der to relieve the earl<ucg conjestion ecom- by around thhat Cathedral, hl sn,eet., be I)IRCed id mending ve on our 1929 program in.hude al of ry It is not mY 342 Special Session, October 18th, 1928 the desired improvements in this re- port for the year 1929, but in order to give our Engineering Department an opportunity to prepare some of the plans for the coming year, I am recommending that the above im- provements be authorized and I sin- cerely trust that the Council will support this program as all of the streets included are very necessary for proper circulation of traffic with- in our city.

Recommendation of the City So- licitor on the following petition: To the Honorable :Mayor, City Man- ager, and City Council of the City of Dubuque, "lowa. Gentlemen: The undersigned her(1- by states that heretofore it bec;un , the owner in fee simple of lots 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the subdivision of lot 4 of the subdivision of 'li"cral lot 1.14 in the City of Dubuque, Iowa, according to the recorded Plat Iher�' of, and subsequently sold the sante, it being incumbent upon petitiolwr to transfer merchantable title' 11) said premises. That after the sale referred to, a cloud upon the title to ;aide1)�N"ysoi was placed thereon by Dubuque in the following ratan hich should be removed by You,' Honorable Body. It appears that a sidewalk tai was levied January 15th, 7921, and ot assessed to A. L. Rho obc'I) briquet, of Mineral lot it Cily of sanu, in- the sum of *312.91, the was not certified to the County And icor until October 27111, 1927. It- is the contention of the peti- tioner that, under the circurnstance , this Special assessment 1tn is not it I(,])upon tine prol of Dubuque- ; cent lax sale to the City 346 Special Session, October 22nd, 1928 by, reason of said assessment is il- legal and without authority in lay. When the levy was made in 1924 it was then incumbent upon the proper officials to certify the same to the County Auditor, as the sale provi- sions in relation thereto are manda- tory as specially provided. No prior tax sale was attempted by the City, there was nothing of record to give legal notice to the undersigned with reference to said assessment, the tax was not certified as provided by law, and the County Treasurer did not and could not bring forward on his books each year following the levy the special assessment re- ferred to, particularly in view of thy_ failure to certify same to him. Our Supreme Court has held that these various laws with respect to certification, delinquency, carrying forward, and the like apply to spe- cial assessments. In view if the foregoing, your pe- titioner respectfully requests your honorable body to cancel of record any claim for said special assess- ment, to cancel the tax sale referred to, and thus wipe out the apparent cloud against the premises, which as above stated, is not and never has been a lien thereon. Respectfully submitted, FEDERAL BANK AND TRUST COMPANY. By .John Rider Wallis, Vice Pres. and Cashier. The City Solicitor recommends that inasmuch as the County Treas- urer refused to put this assessment on the assessment book, the city ha: - no recourse, and that he had suc- ceeded in compromising a settle- ment for $137.50 and recommends that the City accept this amount in full of settlement of this assess- ment. Councilman Meuser moved that the recommendation of the City So- licitor be approved and the Treasur- er be instructed to accept $137.50 in full of settlement of this assessment. and upon receipt of same cancel the tax sale certificate.

The City Solicitor reported on the Asbury Street paving matter, on which Uhlrich and Paley had signed an agreement with the City of Du. buque, to pay the assessments, pro- viding some of the abutting property owners who objected to the improve- ment and had taken it into the court, would win the case. Whereas, Uhlrich and Paley have already paid approximately $3,000 on this improvement, he recommends that the City assume the balance of any deficiencies which exist or may arose by decree of court or reduc- tion by the Council. Councilman McEvoy moved that the recommendation of the City So. licitor be approved and the City and County Treasurers be instructed ac- cordingly. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

As far as I know, the Council has never received a petition for the paving of this street, but your City Manager has received a great many complaints from the property owners, having to use this street, on account of the washed-out condition of the present macadam and inasmuch as it would be a very expensive proposition to continue to maintain the macadam on this street due to the fact that a great amount of water finds its way into said street, it is deemed advisable :o pave the street. and thereby avoid continual expense of maintenance. It is recommended also 1 hat Schroeder Street in this same di<• - tract be paved from the north lint, of Seminary Street to the south lin" of Lowell Street which will make a connected improvement as Lowell Street is at present paved from IIW west line of Schroeder Street o the east line of Paul Street. Pursuant to a petition fron+ e+•N- eral of the property owners on pal" Street for a pavement, it is the rec- ommendation of your City Manager that Paul Street be paved from the- north line of Seminaiy Street to the south line of Lowell Street. Farley Street from Thomas Plac" to Garfield Avenue has been a source of expensive maintenance of the present old macadam due 10 th" continual wash of the eater conibw from Thomas Place and the hills above Thomas Place and your City Manager therefore r"commends that inasmuch as this is one of the streets that serves a g+'er+t nr`rny houses on pavlomas ed during Place the year 192at 91 As stated in my t'orrr+er recom- mendatiou, it is desirable for th(' Council to take immediate action oil these proposed iml)"Ov 1nPuts 1 that the Engineering Department can proceed cinformationin tng the beforerV­ the srry o n ground is covered N%.ith snow redlr at may proceed a1. our paving program m the earliest possible time I Spring andI therefor+ sincerely. hope 2 that the onotherl )rop°�(I(im I ount.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held October 1st, 1928, the proposed or- dinance regulating and licensing curb pumps, together with a very lengthy petition on the subject, was referred to the Council for further consideration. Your City Manager is referring this matter back to the Council with the recommendation that the ordin. ance be revised and passed immed- iately, to take effect April 1st, 1929, the same date as all of our licenses become due. This your City Manag- er believes would be the proper step to take at this time in order to defin- itely settle the matter and not to be brought up again in the Spring. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Referred back to the Council. No action. October 25, 1928. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held August 27th a communication from Helen and Wm. Meehan regarding the storm water condition at the corner of Dodge and South Locust Streets was refererd to your City Manager for report. Immediately after receiving the Petition for report, the bars in the catch basins at this intersection were removed and it is the opinion of your City Manager that until Dodge Street is paved and curbs constructed to withhold the water within the street, that the Meehan Property will experience considerably trouble with the storm water. How- ever, this is no fault of our present drainage facilities at this point. I therefore recommend that the com- munication be placed on file with no further action at this time. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Meuser moved that the petition be received and filed. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held August 27th, 1928, a communication from Helen and Wm. Meehan ie. garding the storm sewer condition at the intersection of Dodge and South Locust Streets was refered to your City Manager for report. Your City Manager is attaching hereto a sketch showing the present drainage facilities at this point. A glance at the sketch will show that there are at present three large in- take grates and four other smaller intake grates at this intersection which is deemed entirely adequate to take care of the storm water at this point. The Council will also note, upon looking at the sketch, that the principal reason for the Meehan property having trouble with the storm water is the fact that there are no curbs in Dodge Street opposite this property which would tend to hold the water within the street and at the present time the water is able to round the corner and flow over the Meehan property unobstructed when there is the least obstruction in the catch basin grates. Your City Manager_ believes that when Dodge Street is paved from South Locust Street to the railroad tracks that the trouble now being experienced by the Meehan property Nvill be eliminated and it is there- fore recommended that the commun- ication be filed with no further ac- tion at this time, awaiting the pave- ment of Dodge Street at which time, if the Council deems advisable, ad- ditional catch basins may be includ- ed in the improvement. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Meuser moved that the petition be received and filed. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held October 12th the matter of purchas- ing the A. Heeb private sewer in Rock Street, was referred to your City Manager with power and this is to advise that we have purchased the private sewer from Mr. Heeb for the sum of $200.00 and to date have collected back from property owners that will be served by said sewer the sum of $40.00. At some later date during the coming year it is the intention of the City to connect a lateral sewer to this sewer and therefore it seemed very necessary for the City to own same in order to eleminate consid- erable expense in serving several pieces of property. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Meuser moved that the communication be received and filed. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

Cooper requesting the City to take some action in open- ing Railroad Street from East Main Street to the river was referred to the City Manager for report. Your City Manager can see n great benefit to be derived by till opening of this street at this time and it would greatly inconvenient.. the Illinois Central Railroad and 1 so informed Mr. Cooper on one of his recent visits to the City. How- ever, I suggested to Mr. Cooper that whenever he was able to sell any of his property along the water front, which would require the open- ing of Railroad Street, that I would submit the proposition to the Coun- cil in the proper form, and, under the circumstances, I recommend that the communication from Mr. Cooper be placed on file with no further ac- tion at this time.

It will be recalled at that time we were having some trouble with the Telegraph -Herald regarding; charges for printing official notices, but inasmuch as this matter has been adjusted and the Telegraph- Heiald has agreed to accept the leg- al rate, I wish to recommend that we continue with the Telegraph -Her- ald and therefore no further action is required on the resolution from the Dubuque Trades and Labor Con- gress other than to file same.

To the Honorable Mayor and City o Council, Dubuque, lo«'a• Gentlemen: ,1t your meeting held P 22nd, 1925, a compromise October• settlement "as made with the Fed- 352 Special Session, October 30th, 1928 eral Bank & Trust Co., account of delinquent sidewalk tax which was levied January 15th, 1924, and as- sessed to A. L. Rhomberg, being lot 4 of Mineral Lot 144, City of Du- buque, in the sum of $312.91, stat- ing that the lien was not certified to the County Auditor until October 27th, 1927. The compromise settle- ment was in the sum of $137.50. I find upon investigation that our City Treasurer did certify to the County Treasurer the lien as of April 17th, 1924, and that the County Treasurer refused to accept in his books the liens, claiming that he was not the collector of unbonded liens and therefore the City seemed to be helpless in forcing the entry and collection of said liens. The City Treasurer again certified the liens on October 27th, 1927. At the last meeting of the City Treasurer and City Clerk were criti- cized on account of laxity in certify- ing liens and this report is being made to you with an idea of fully in- forming you on the situation. Very truly yours, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the communication be received and filed. Seconded by Councilman Meuser.

If the local contractors desire to keep the City's paving business from going out of town they should show a little more disposition to complete the contracts when same are given to them and due to the fact that they had neglected to complete their contracts on time, it seems no more than right that they should maintain the streets under contract to them in a condition that they may be trav- eled with comfort during the winter months.

On October 11th a communication from Al. G. Acker requesting a year's extension of time in which to put in a concrete sidewalk in front of lot 2 of 2 of 2 of 2 of 7 of Mineral Lot 159 and in front of lot 1 of 2 of 2 of 2 of 1 of 7 of Mineral Lot 159 oil College Street and while no action was taken by the Council in grant- ing the extention of time, Mr. Ack- er was really given a year in which to put in the walk and this is to advise that inasmuch as the walk was not put in by him, that the City is now installing the same along with several other walks in the same district. Also a notice to install walk in front of lot 4, 5, 6, Cushing's Addi- tion, which are owned by the City, was referred to the City Manager without any action and it is the rec- ommendation of your City Manager that these walks be installed along with our 1929 program.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held April 16th a communication from Peter Deutsch in regard to the park- ing conditions on Iowa Street be- tween 12th and 13th, was referred to your City Manager for investiga- tion and report. Mr. Deutsch is complaining about the business houses in this block blocking the sidewalk with barrel trucks and carts and inasmuch as this is more or less of a market square, with business houses in this block which require more or less trucking across the sidewalk due to the nature of their business, it seems to me that there is little that the City can do to abate the nuis- ance other than we have already Special Session, October 30th, 1928 351) done be requesting the proprietors to create as little nuisance as pos- sible. In regard to the parking condition, we feel that this has been material- ly unproved by the City cutting back the curb and widening the pavement in front of the City Hall property and your City Manager therefore recommends communica- tion be fled with at h th nofurther at this time.

Your City Manager has inspected this proposition on the ground and finds that the storm water when it leaves the culvert under Lincoln Avenue takes a very meandering course in order to cross Shiras Av- enue and for that reason causes tha banks to wash considerably, also that it is impossible to extend the sanitary sewer from Stanton Street to Shiras Avenue until the storm ditch is filled up, which causes a very unsanitary condition at this point and it is therefore the recom- mendation of your City Manager that the City straighten out and con- struct a covered storm sewer from the present outlet of the storm sew- er under Lincoln Avenue to a con- nection with the culvert under Shir- as Avenue and that a sanitary sewer be extended to serve Mr. Eichman's property.

Report of the City Solicitor rela- tive to the petition of Peter H. Mc- Carthy relative to the rights of the City of Dubuque in and to certain streets, alleys and the levee front abutting upon and lying within the Dubuque Harbor Company's Addi- tion to the City of Dubuque, pre- sented and read. 'Ib the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: This Council has re- ferred to me for examination and report, the petition of Peter McCar= Illy, relative to the rights of the City of Dubuque in and to certain streets, alleys and levee front abut- ting upon and lying within the Du- buque Harbpr Company's Addition 456 Regular Session, December 3rd, 1928 to the City of Dubuque. I beg to advise you that covering a period as far back as 1876 certain vacations took place and certain conveyances were made, all of which required careful study and examination. In explaining these matters to you I have attached hereto copies of docu- ments, evidence of the various trans- actions and these will aid you in understanding this report. I desire to preface this report by sayinz tha: whenever a street or other -.:blip place is vacated by the Cour., ::c1: vacation does not have the ' alienating the title of the '-o:n the City, but mere- ly a::.discontinuance of the use c'. :-eet for public purposes, unle -he clear intention of the vacat'. :. i,roceedings to grant the title others. But such intention must be clearly expressed in the proceedings themselves, and cannot be infered or presumed. With this in mind we proceed to a consider- ation of the various vacations and their effect. Tower Street Tower Street is the most easterly street in Dubuque Harbor Improve- ment Company's Addition and runs as far north as Eighth Street. In 1876, when blocks 1 and 8 of such addition were owned by Ingram, Ken- nedy, and Day, that part of this street lying between the north line of Commercial Street and the south line of 8th Street was vacated, but the City did not divest itself of the title thereto. A copy of this vaca- tion is hereto attached. In 1888 an ordinance was adopted by which all that part of Tower Street north of Diagonal Street was vacated. Diagonal Street is the first street south of Commercial and runs diagonally from Tower Street to Commercial Street. Apparently the intention of this ordinance was to include Tower Street north of Diag- onal to Eighth Street. By the terms of the ordinance "the exclusive right to use and occupy for the manufac- turing purposes, or purposes incident thereto" was granted to the Stan- dard Lumber Company. But this grant was conditional and provided that "at the expiration of twenty- five years or at any other time that the City should demand it, said Premises should be re -conveyed to the City. It also provided that if said Company should abandon the use of the premises for manufactur. ing purposes for three consecutive Years, such premises should go back and revert to the City. It will be observed that by the language of this ordinance, the title to the street was not conveyed to the Standard Lumber Company, but it was grant- ed merely the right to the use there- of. The Standard Lumber Company discontinued the use of said prem- ises for manufacturing purposes in 1911. A copy of this ordinance is hereto attached. The Standard Lumber Company was the successor Ingram, Kennedy and Day. M. H. McCarthy was the successor of the Standard Lumber Company. In 1916, five years after the Stan- dard Lumber Company discontinued operations, said' M. H. McCarthy exe- cuted a quit claim deed to the Du- buque Electric Company by the terms of which he conveyed to said Company all his right and interest in and to "all that part of Tower Street which lies between Lot 1 in Block 8, and Lots 1 to 4 in Block 1 Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition." The portion of Tower Street thus attempted to be conveyed lies north of the alley which runs east and west between Commercial Street and 8th Street. By virtue of such conveyance, the Dubuque Electric Company, and its successor, Interstate Power Com- pany, might assert some claim that it is the owner of that part of Tow- er Street described in said deed. It is my opinion that the Inter- state Power Company did not ac- quire any right to said vacated Por- tion of Tower Street adverse to the City by virtueof said deed. At no time did the City divest itself of its title to said street. The most that can be said is that by the ordin- ance of 1888, the City granted the use of said vacated street to the Standard Lumber Company and when said company discontinued business, not only the title to said street reverted to the City, but it also became relieved of any obliga- tion to permit the same to be used by any private party. M. H. McCar- thy, not having title to the fee of said street, could not convey the same to the Dubuque Electric Com- pany and when he attempted to do so, the grantee in said deed acquired no greater rights than were owned by the grantor. In view of what has been said, it is my opinion that title to Tower Street north of Diagonal Street, to the south line of 8th Street is in the City of Dubuque, and the Council can, if it so desires, re-establish Tower Street as originally plated. In this connection, I might say, that I deem it advisable at this time, that the Council take some action look- ing toward the affirmance of the City's interest in said Tower Street, so that any conflicting interests may be duly appraised of the con- tention of the City. In October, 1915, M. H. McCarthy Regular Session, December 3rd, 1928 457 executed a quit claim deed to the Allison -Henderson Memorial Associa- tion, of certain described property and included therein certain vacat- ed streets and alleys. Among these streets was that part of Tower Street commencing at the southerly line of Blocks 2 and 7, thence ex- tending northerly to the southerly line of the alley in Block S. By this deed it was intended to convey all that portion of Tower Street extend- ing northerly from River Street to the alley between Commercial and sth Streets. In 1921, the Allison - Henderson Memorial Association ex- ecuted a quit claim deed of these premises to the City of Dubuque. The Outer Levee When the abandoned river chan- nel was filled by the Dubuque Har- bor Company about the year, 1857, and the Dubuque Harbor Improve- ment Company's Addition was cre- ated, express provision -,vas made to reserve to the City a strip of land 150 feet in %vidth east of the easter- ly lot lines of Blocks 1, 2, 3, 4 and 24 of said Addition for lovee purpos- es, and this was known as the outer levee and extends northerly to the south line of 8th Street. In 1888 the City granted the use of that part of the outer levee lying south of 8th Street and east of Lot 7, Block 2, to the Standard Lumber Company on the same conditions that were provided for the use of Tower Street. In the quit claim deed which was executed by \1. H. McCarthy, to the Allison -Henderson Memorial Association in 1915, that portion of the outer levee easterly from and adjoining block 2, and the easterly end of lots 6 to 10, of block 1, was conveyed to said association and it, in turn, conveyed the same to the City in 1921. It will be observed that no part of the outer levee as originally plat- ted and reserved, was ever vacated by the City unconditionally to any one. So that when Al. H. McCarthy attempted to convey the same to the Allison -Henderson Memorial :Associ- ation he had no right to do so, and no rights passed by this deed. At any rate, the Mile to the entire outer levee north to the south line of 8th Street is in the City of Dubuque, but in view of the attenrpted con, veyances, and certain confusion in the record, some affirmative action should be taken by the Council at this time in order to clarify thesitu atimr. This is especially important ih view of prospective river develop ment in the future. Commercial Street Commercial Sheet is an extension: of east 7th Street to Market Street and thence easterly to the outer levee. In 1888 that portion of Commercial Street running easterly from Diag- onal Street was vacated, and the use thereof granted to the Standard Lumber Company on the same terms and conditions, as stated with re- ference to Tower Street, and the same action should be taken with reference to this street as was sug- gested for Tower Street. In the deed by M. H. McCarthy to Allison -Henderson Memorial Associ- ation, and by said Association to the City, heretofore refered to, Commer- cial Street from the center of Bell Street easterly to the east line of Blocks 1 and 2 is conveyed. I find no record where any part of Com- mercial Street west of Diagonal Street (excepting a part to be re- fererd to) was ever vacated, so that when M. H. McCarthy attempted to convey that part of Commercial Street west of Diagonal Street, he had no right to do so as he poss- essed no rights which he could con- vey. A small part of Commercial Street, however, has been entirely alienated by the City when it adopted an or- dinance in 1896. This portion is de- scribed as "Commercial Street, north and abutting Lot 15 in Block 13." By the terms of this ordinance, the vacated section of the street was given to the owners of the lots abut- ting thereon. A copy of this ordin- ance is attached. Washington Street Washington Street runs east and west through the Dubuque Harbor Improvement Company's Addition TO Tower Street. In 1896, by the passage of an or- dinance, the City vacated Washing- ton Street from High Bridge Aven- ue (now East 4th Street) to Bell Street, and from Bell Street to Tow- er Street, and granted such vacat- ed portion of the street to the abut- ting owners. Bell Street Bell Street is the first street west of Tower Street and runs parallel with it to 8th Street. In 1896, by the passage of an or- dinance, the City vacated Bell Street north of Commercial Street, that is, between Commercial Street and 8th Street, and granted such vacated portion of the Street to the abutting owners. In 1916, M. H• McCarthy deeded Bell Street north of the alley lying between Commercial Street and 8th Street to the Dubuque Electric Com- pany, and in 1915, deeded the por- tion of the street south of the alley to the :Alison -Henderson Memorial 458 Regular Session, December 3rd, 1928 Association, and it, in turn, deeded said portion of Bell Street to the City. So that the City now owns Bell Street south of this alley, and the Interstate Power Company owns Bell Street north of this alley. Market Street Market Street is the first street west of Bell Street and runs par- allel with it to 8th Street. In 1896, by the passage of an or- dinance the City vacated Market Street north of Commercial Street and granted such vacated portion of the Street to the abutting owners. In 1916, M. H. McCarthy deeded Market Street north of the alley ly- ing between Commercial and 8th Street to the Dubuque Electric Com- pany, and 'in 1915, he deeded the portion of the street south of the alley to Allison -Henderson Memorial Association, and it, in turn, deeded said portion of Market Street to the City. So that the City now owns Market Street south of the alley and the Interstate Power Company owns Market Street north of the alley. Eighth Street Eighth Street is platted along the northerly boundary of the Dubuque Harbor Improvement Company's Ad- dition. In 1925, Eighth Street from the easterly line of Pine Street to the easterly line of Lot 20, Block 12, ex- tended, was vacated in favor of Du- buque Electric Company. The re- maining portioil of 8th Street as platted, has no• been vacated. The Alley Between Washington and Wall Streets In 1896, by the passage of an or- dinance, the City vacated the alley between Washington and Wall Streets from High Bridge Avenue (now East 4th Street) to Bell Street and from Bell Street to Tower Street and granted such vacated por- tion of the alley to abutting owners. Alley in Blocks 8 and 9 This alley lies between Commer- cial Street and 8th Street and in 1896, it was vacated from Tower Street to Market Street and granted to the abutting owners. An undivid- ed one-half of this alley was later deeded by M. H. McCarthy to the Du- buque Electric Company. Alley in Block 12 Block 12 extends from Market Street to Cypress Street and lies be- tween .Commercial Street and 8th Street. I do not find any vacations of the alley in this block, but in 1916, M. H. McCarthy deeded to the Dubuque Electric Company, an undivided one- half interest of so much of said alley commencing at the westerly edge of Lot 23 in said Block 12, and thence easterly and southerly to the south- easterly end of said lot . Summary It will appear from the foregoing that, while some of the streets and alleys lying within Dubuque Harbor Improvement Company's Addition have not only been vacated, but title thereto has been conveyed to others, yet there are some streets and alleys to which the City still retains title. This is true of: (a) Tower Street. (b) Commercial Street. (c) The Outer Levee. (d) A portion of Bell Street. (e) A portion of Market Street. (f) Possibly the alley in Block 1.2 last referred to. With reference to these streets and this alley it is my belief that this Council should adopt such measures at an early date as will insure the ownership of these prem- ises to the City for future record or development. Most of these streets are now, and always have been under water, yet their value at this time cannot be estimated due to changing conditions. Then again, the City should assert its ownership in these public grounds so that misunderstandings as to actual title may be averted. If the City Council desires to re-establish the streets, this can be affected by the passage of an ordinance which I will prepare if the Council deems it advisable. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. Ordinance of March 2, 1876 Whereas, it appears that Ingram, Kennedy and Day are the owners of all lots in Blocks 1 and 8 of the Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition to Dubuque that abut on that portion of Tower Street lying between said Blocks 1. and $ aforesaid, and they have petitioned the said City Council to vacate that portion of Tower Street named aforesaid, and the City En- gineer having filed his plat showing the lots and lands over which said street is located and the owners thereof, and there being no objec- tion made to the vacation of that portion of Tower Street aforesaid by interested parties.

December 4, 1928. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: In regard to the flood light on the electric light post at the southeast corner of 10th and Locust Streets installed by the Qual- ity Oil Company which the Council viewed last evening, I wish to re- port that we have had a consider- able amount of trouble and contro- versy with Mr. Henry Kiene, the owner of said oil station, in regard to the present flood light installa- tion and both our Electrical Inspect- or and myself have ordered Mr. Kiene to remove the flood light from the post and discontinue same. It has been our experience that where flood lights are installed with- in the streets, that considerable trouble and controversy will arise as most of the flood lights are a hazard to the traveling public, es- pecially on rainy and snowy nights and it is therefore my recommenda- tion that the Council order the flood light removed and that no flood light installations be allowed in the future in the streets. Very Respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Yount moved that the recommendation of the City Manager be approved. Seconded by Councilman Schuckert.

Mrs. Helen Meehan addressed the Council relative to improving Dodge Street from Main to Locust Streets, stating that the sater should be taken care of before any improve- ment is made on said street. Mr. Adams addressed the Council relative to the improving of the alley back of Fenelon Place from Summit to West 3rd Streets, stating that this alley should be improved as it is the only way for residents to get to their garages. Mrs. Jos. Haupert addressed the Council relative to the paving of Schroeder Street, stating that before the Council does any improving on said street they should investigate, she also spoke on the improvement of Lowell Street, representing her father who owns property on said street, objecting to same. Mr. Lungwitz addressed the Coun- cil relative to the improvement of Lowell Street from Paul to North Main Streets, stating they have no objections to paving said street, but ask that the bricl: gutters now on said street remain. Frank Kurt addressed the Counci relative to paving North Main Street stating that the brick gutters are it good condition and the center of the street can be put in good condition by repairing same. Residents of Paul Street do not object to improving said street pro- viding sewer is installed before the improvement is made. Residents on Stafford Street object to the paving of said street, claiming that there is not enough traffic on said street to warrant the improving of same. Harry T. Bauer, representing the C. G. W. R. R. Co. et al., addressed the Council objecting to the improve- ment of East 29th Street, for the reason that this street is used very little and the expense would be more than some of the property is worth. Art. Kenniker addressed the Coun- cil on behalf of his mother, objecting to the improvement of 32nd Street and Lemon Street, stating that it would be unwise to improve 32nd Street from Central Avenue to Lem- on Street unless the street would be improved about one-quarter of a mile further west, because the water washes dirt and rock down over this street during heavy rains, same is also true of Lemon Street, and fur- thermore there is very little traffic on said streets. Mr. Fenelon et al. addressed the Council on the improvement of Lem - en Street, making the same state- ments as Mr. Kenniker made, stating that a storm sewer should be con- structed first to take care of the water before any street improve- ments are made. Mrs. Sarah Mack addressed the Council relative to improving Farley Street, stating that she did not think anyone would object to the improve- ment of this street if sewer and water were installed first. D. A. Doty addressed the Council relative to the Dodge Street improve- ment, from Grandview Avenue to Bryant Street, stating that this street from Booth Street to Bryant is a water way and that parking in the center would not be advisable, and that the Council give due con- sideration to this fact before making the improvement.

To the H'onorable Mayor and City Council. Gentlemen: The Dubuque Base Ball Club desires to request the re- location of a number of billboards on the reclaimed slough property just Session, 'December 12th, 1928 475 west of the Athletic Field, to a point about 75 feet north. The purpose of this request is to provide a larger parking space for automobiles during the baseball season. With 4th Street Extension, the highway over which practically all incoming traffic must travel, and which must also handle the ordinary local traffic, it will be impracticable to continue the double parking system which has been used in the past. On numerous occasions last year traffic was either tied up at times or severely handicapped be- cause of the double parking system, and numerous minor accidents re- sulted. Removal of billboards to the point suggested will give ample room for parking purposes and will leave 4th Street Extension open completely for traffic at all times. (Signed) DUBUQUE BASE BALL CLUB. By Fred Leiser, Presdent. Councilman Meuser moved that the petition be referred to the City Manager. Seconded by Councilman McEvoy. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Yount, Coun- cilmen McEvoy, Meuser, Schuckert. Nays—None. Absent—:Mayor Maclay. December 12th, 1925. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: Some time ago a com- munication was received by the Council from the Director of Public Health of the City calling attention to the unsanitary 'condition of the premises owned by one John Long and located near the corner of 26th and White Streets, on Lot 265, Davis Farm Add. to the City of Dubuque, and this communication was referred to the :Manager and Solicitor for ex- amination and report. We beg to advise your Honorable Body that for several years repeated complaints have been made by per- sons living in the neighborhood of these premises regarding the filthy and unsanitary condition of the same. These complaints were inves- tigated from time to time and the following facts discovered: Mr. Long maintains a barn on these premises wherein cattle and horses are kept; the son of Mr. Long is a horse trader and cattle buyer and the number of cattle and horses on the premises varies from time to time; the barn itself is an old build- ing: the floors thereof are broken and the walls are more or less dilap- idated. Manure is permitted to accumulate on the premises in large quantities, both inside of the barn and outside thereof, and is not enclosed within a covered retainer. The result is that vermin and flies gather and the atmosphere is poluted with a dis- agreeable and unwholesome stench. In fact the conditions create a dan- gerous menace to public health. Mr. Long has been warned repeat- edly regarding these matters and ad- vised to correct same, but he per- sists iii continuing them. On two occasions he was arrested and brought before the Police Magistrate for failing to obey orders from the Board of Health. On one of these occasions he promised to clean up the premises and correct the condi- tions and he was discharged with the admonition to carry out his promise. He has failed to do this. On the sec- ond occasion he was fined, and the fine was paid, but this has not helped to make conditions any better, so that it seems that it has become nec- essary to take more drastic steps to protect the City and its inhabitants against this nuisance and continuous menace to health. Therefore we recommend that the Council direct the Solicitor to take such steps as he deems necessary in order to remove the nuisance re- ferred to, even to the extent of bring- ing an action in injunction to re- strain the continuance of the nuis- ance. Respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. Councilman JicEvoy moved that the report be approved and the City Solicitor be directed to take the nec- essary steps to remove the nuisance. Seconded by Councilman Meuser. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Yount, Coun- cilmen McEvoy, Meuser, Schuckert. Nays—None. Absent—Mayor Maclay. Report of the City Solicitor on the delinquent taxes of Anton Fortman. The City Solicitor reported that Mr. Fortman is anxious to redeem his property for which the City holds tax sale certificates amounting to about $2,552.23. He reports that Mr. Fortman is willing to pay $2,352.23 and hereby tenders his check for said amount, being a reduction of $200. City Solicitor Czizek recom- mends that the Council accept this check as payment in full for his de- linquent taxes. Councilman Meuser moved that the recommendation of the City So- licitor be approved and the Treas- urer be instructed to accept this 476 Special Session, December 12th, 1928 check as pay in full, and that all taxes for which the City holds re- ceipts and certificates be cancelled. Seconded by Councilman McEvoy. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Pro -tem Yount, Coun- cilmen McEvoy, Meuser, Schuckert. Nays—None. Absent—Mayor Maclay, City Solicitor Czizek recommended that the tax certificates on the fol- lowing property, for which the City holds Treasurer's deeds be cancelled and the Treasurer be instructed ac- cordingly, to -wit: Lot No. 25, Burton's Add., assess- ed in 1895 for improvement of West Eagle Point Avenue; East 20 feet of Lot 37, Union Add., assessed in 1914 for sewer in Cleve- land Avenue, and East 20 feet of Lot 38, Union Add., assessed in 1914 for sewer in Cleveland Avenue; Lot 2 of Sub. of Min.

Mr. Bartels is a graduate civil engineer and has had several years' experience in municipal work, and it is my opinion that he will be able to fill the position in a very satisfactory way. Mr. Bartels, being an engineer, will also be able to help out in the P;ngineering Department when wort: is not pressing in his department, which should be a great advantage to the City. One of the reasons that delayed me in making my appointment was the fact that I wanted to obtain someone that was also a local resi- dent of Dubuque and I think that Mr. Bartels can satisfy this requirement inasmuch as he was practically raised in Dubuque. Trusting that this appointment will meet with the approval of the Council and those in the building construction business in this City, I am, Very respectfully yours, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. There being no further business, Council adjourned, JOHN STUBER, Cobity Clerk. Approved....., !,_ _../..Ct._.. . 1928. Adopted Councl In Attest: City Clerk.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held November 28th a petition from Mul- len Bros. & Co., asking that money in the sum of $83.00 paid by them for inspection of installing oil burn- ers be refunded to them, was re- ferred to your City Manager for re- port. We have investigated the records and find that the following firms and individuals have taken out permits and paid a $1.00 fee for each permit as follows: Lewis& Co . ...................................... 35 Clara L. Hillyard ............................ 5 IowaOil Co ....................................... 5 H. B. McCarten ----------------------- 7 Larry Mullen .................................... 2 Eisbach Bros . .................................... 1 Morrison Bros . ................................ 2 Iowa House Furnishing Co........... 1 M.

Cleaver ..... .............................. 60 Curtis & Co . ...................................... 32 Mullen Bros. & Co ........................... 88 As stated by the City Solicitor at the last meeting, another petition for a refund was presented to the Coun- cil earlier in the year and it was decided at that time to file the re- quest without granting the refund and for that reason I recommend that the request of Mullen Bros. & Co. be handled in the same way. The $1.00 inspection fee does not seem an unreasonable fee for in- spection, and, if for no other reason, the City should have a full and com- plete record of all oil tank installa- tions. Very respectfully yours, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the report be referred to the Council for further consideration. Seconded by Councilman McEvoy.

Dear Sir: Replying to your letter of November 30th, regarding the per- mit, desired by the Management and Engineering Corporation of Dubuque to extend their intake in Lake Peos- ta Slough. As stated to you in a former letter, we were waiting for a map to be made by the Interstate Power Com- pany of this city, showing exactly where said intake was to be con- structed as regards the property which they own. We have just received a copy of said map, a copy of which is en- closed herein, which shows the en- tire proposed construction to be lo- cated entirely upon plotted property which is owned by the Interstate Power Company. Inasmuch as this proposed con- struction is to be made entirely upon property owned by the applicant, we cannot see how we are interested in one way or the other, either for or against the application, and for that reason we do not care to make a pro- test at this time. Trusting that this will clarify the matters which you have had under consideration, I am, Very truly yours, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager.

Resolution No. 2-29 A resolution reclaiming all that portion of the Outer Levee lying easterly of Block 1 in Dubuque Hai- bor Improvement Company's addition south of East Sth Street, and all that part of Tower Street in the City of Dubuque lying bet,,veen Lot 1 in Block S and Lots I to 4 in Block '. 4w 4 Regular Session, January 7th, 1929 Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition and extending north- erly of the alley between Commer- cial Street, (now East 7th Street) and 8th Street (now East 8th Street). Whereas, there exists some uncer- tainty in the records of the City Council of the City of Dubuque re- garding the title to the Outer Levee lying south of 8th Street, (now East 8th Street) and easterly of Block 1, Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition and in order to af- firm the rights and title of the City of Dubuque in and to said Outer Levee it is deemed necessary and advisable to declare the ownership and title of said Outer Levee to be in the City of Dubuque; and WHEREAS, in the years 1876 and 1888 Tower Street in the City of Du- buque was vacated by the City Coun- cil of said city and the right to use the same was granted to Ingram, Kennedy and Day and to their suc- cessors, Standard Lumber Company, this right, however, to terminate a'.: the expiration of 25 years or upon the abandonment of the use of the prem- ises abutting upon said street for manufacturing purposes for three consecutive years; and Whereas, said Standard Lumber Company did abandon such premises for manufacturing purposes in 1911 and M. H. McCarthy became the suc- cessor in interest in and to the real estate owned by said Standard Lum- ber Company and in 1916, by quit claim deed, said M. H. McCarthy pre- tended to convey his interest in and to said Tower Street to the Dubuque Electric Company, the predecessor of the Interstate Power Company, whereas, in truth and in fact, said M. H. McCarthy had no such title or interest in and to such vacated portion of Tower Street that he could convey the same to said Du- buque Electric Company; and Whereas, some confusion and un- certainty has arisen as to the right and title of the City of Dubuque in and to said vacated portion of To-,e- er Street lying between Lot 1 in Block 8 and Lots 1 to 4 in Block 1, Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition and extending nor- therly of the alley between Commer- cial Street (now East 7th Street) and 8th Street (now East 8th Street) and, Whereas, said M. H. McCarthy has since died and there is no one with authority to reconvey said Tower Street to the City of Dubuque, as provided for in the ordinance adopt- ed in 1888; and Whereas, it is deemed advisable by this Council to reclaim said va- cated portion of Tower Street and assert the right and title of the City of Dubuque in and to said va- cated portion of Tower Street in order that such right and title be established as agttlh-sV the adverse or conflicting claims of any other party. Now therefore be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Dtt- buque that the exclusive right and title to the Outer Levee be and the same is hereby affirmed and estab- lished in the City of Dubuque and 'flay rights heretofore granted to any parties to the same or to the use thereof be and the same are hereby revolved. Be it further resolved that exclu- sive right and title in and to Tow- er Street lying between Lot 1 in Block 8 and Lots 1 to 4 in Block 1 Dubuque Harbor Improvement Com- pany's Addition and extending nor- therly of the alley between Com- mercial Street (now East 7th Street) and 8th Street (now East Sth Street) be and the same is hereby affirmed and established in the City of Dubuque and any rights hereto- fore granted to any parties to the same or to the use thereof be and the same are hereby revoked and the successor or successors in inter- est to said M. H. McCarthy are here- by released of the obligation to exe- cute any conveyance to said City of Dubuque as in the Ordinance of 1885 provided. Be it further resolved that the City Clerk be and he is hereby di- rected to file for record in the office of the Recorder of Dubuque County, Iowa, a certified copy of this resolu- tion.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held November 22nd a petition signed by 52 business men requesting that Railroad Street be changed to Ott Street, was referred to your City Manager for report. There are no railroad tracks on Railroad Street any more than on many other streets crossing the rail- road tracks and for that reason the name Railroad Street has no partic- ular significance and the name of this street can be easily changed to any other name without particularly embarrassing or hampering the City in its use, and due to the fact that so many of our business men have petitioned for the change of name to Ott Street, I can see no valid rea- son for not granting the prayer of the petition. However, Railroad Street is practically an extention of Southern Avenue and if Railroad Street is change to Ott Street I rec- ommend that the name of Southern Avenue also be changed to Ott Street. Very respectively submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Meuser moved that the matter be referred to the Coun- cil for consideration. Seconded by Councilman McEvoy.

The Chamber of Commerce appre- ciates the great interest that our City has in the deepening of the channel of the upper Mississippi River, and we are arranging to send a delegate to this meeting. We feel that the City of Dubuque should also be represented and we will greatly appreciate it if you will arrange to have some one represent the City. Very truly yours, O. A. REYNOLDS, Secretary.

Hoerman addressed the Council on behalf of the businessmen of Du. buque, relative to have the snow re- moved from the streets, stating that the condition of the streets at the present time, owing to the heavy snowfall is deplorable and is a detri- ment to business, and also consti- tutes a fire hazard, inasmuch as the Fire Department would be handi- capped in case of fire. They urged the Council to take immediate ac- tion and also recommended that the City purchase a Sno Go snow plow manufactured by the Klauer Mfg. Co., of our City, stating that it is the best snow plow manufactured and is being used in all parts of the country, and is doing the work very satisfactory. x City Manager Kratz stated that it is the best machine of its kind that he ever saw or heard of and recom- mended that the City purchase one. In addressing the Council some of the speakers mentioned that this machine being manufactured by a Dubuque concern, the Council should be actuated by the desire to assist home industries by purchasing one of the plows manufactured by the Klauer Mfg. Co. Action on this matter was deferred to an informal meeting of the Coun- cil to be held Wednesday, Jan. 16th, when it will be considered. Mrs. J. S. McNulty addressed the Council, relative to having the as- sessment against Lot 68 Belmont Add., for construction of a sanitary sewer in 1927 reduced, claiming that the assessment, was much to hull 12 Special Session, J, in proportion to the assessed valua- tion of the lot.

Peter Theobold addressed the Council, stating that he is the own- er of Lot 1 of Min. Lot 93-B on Kirkwood Street. He got possession of this property by foreclosure on a mortgage, which was in the amount of $2,000.00; after getting possession of same he found that there was a mechanics lien againsi the property of $300.00 which he paid, he also found that there were back taxes and street assessments against the pro- perty. He paid $290.78 and there is still a balance of $243.60 represent- ing 5 installments, due. Inasmuch as the property is not worth more than $1,000, and the assessments for street improvement was much too high when levied, he asks that the balance due be cancelled. Councilman Meuser moved that the balance due for assessments on this property be cancelled, the Aud- itor be instructed to draw a warrant for the amount on the General Fund to make up the shortage thus cre- ated and the Treasurer be instruct- ed accordingly.

The $1.00 inspection fee does not seem an unreasonable fee for inspection and, if for no other rea- son, the City should have a full and complete record of all oil tank in- stallations. Very respectfully yours, 0. A. KRATZ, City Manager. City Solicitor Czizek stated that inasmuch as the City has no ordin. ance covering the installation and in- spection of oil burners, the City has no legal right to collect fees for the installation of oil burners and that the fees that were collected should be returned, and no such fees be collected until the City adopts an ordinance covering the installation of such oil burners.

Dear Mr. Maclay: Some time ago the Retaail Merchants Bureau of the Chamoer of Commerce sponsored a proposed Ordinance which would amend the existing ordinance regu- lating Itinerant Merchants. The City Council, I am informed, has not as yet disposed of this mat- ter. I have been requested by the officers of the Bureau to again take up this matter with the City Council and I am writing you to ask if you will not bring it up at your next meeting. The business men who are affil- 171 on MO EA Regular Session, February 4th, 1929 15 iated with our Bureau are very much interested in the adoption of legisla- tion which will give the home mer- chant more adequate protection than the present ordinance now provides, and we would very. much appreciate the favorable consideration of the above mentioned ordinance by the City Council. Thanking you for your interest in this matter. Very truly yours, FRANK J. DELANEY, Secretary.

Therefore I wish to request tha your Honorable Body take such ac tion as will relieve me of the nece, sity of incurring additional expense agreeable to the orders of the BuW Ing Commissioner, which in my hurr ble opinion is uncalled for by th Building Code.

Permit ............ appli- cation .......... fee. Section 1. Before any person, firm or corporation shall be permitted to erect or install in any residence or other building, or upon any premises, any oil -burning device or equipment for heating purposes, together with tanks or containers for storage or fuel oil, such person, firm or corporation shall first secure a permit therefor from the Plumbing Inspector of the City of Dubuque. No permit shall be issued unless and until an application has been made therefor and a fee of $3.00 has been paid. Such application shall be accompanied by a plat or drawing showing the location of the building and premises and the make or type of burner to be installed and shall be accompanied by a statement as to whether or not such burner has been approved by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. If such equip- ment has not been thus approved, then a full and complete specifica- tion of such burner and equipment shall accompany the application. The plat or drawing shall also show the location and size of all tanks, boil- ers, pipes, burners, electrical wiring, and room or apartment in which the same is to be installed, the location of all doors, windows and other means of ventilation. When such application is filed with the Plumbing Inspector he shall in- vestigate the same and if satisfied that such proposed installation is in conformity with this and all other ordinances of the City of Dubuque, he shall grant such permit, but if he be not so satisfied he may refuse such permit or withhold it until such time as the applicant shall conform such application to the requirements of this and all other ordinances of said City. All installation shall be under the jurisdiction of the Plumb- ing Inspector and he shall have auth- ority to enforce compliance with the provisions of this ordinance. Paragraph 4pZ.. Fuel Oils. Section 2. Oil used for fuel under these regu- lations shall be a topped or distilled oil having a flash point of not less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, and such oils shall not be fed from the tank to the suction pump at a pre- heated temperature higher than for- ty degrees Fahrenheit below its flash point. �aa Paragraph \3 Tanks. Section 3. Each storage tank for the storage of fuel oil used in connection with an oil -burning device or equipment where the capacity of the tank ex- ceeds 275 gallons, shall have piping connections only from the top of the tank and openings or piping connee- tions at points other than at the top of said tank are hereby prohibited. Each storage tank with a greater capacity than 275 gallons when placed on the outside of any resi- dence or building shall be buried un- der ground with the top of the tank not less than fourteen inches below the surface ,and when such tank is installed in the basement or cellar of any residence or building it shall be set on a bed of sand six inches in depth spread over a firm foundation and shall be walled in with a brick wall at least eight inches in thick- ness and a firm packing of sand placed between the brick wall and outside of the tank at all points, and a covering of sand over the top of the tank of at least twelve inches in thickness.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held March 25th a petition from Frank A. Zemanek relative to assessments lev- ied against Lots 7, 8 and 9 Mills West Dubuque Addition, was refer- red to your City Manager for report. This is to advise that your City Manager has checked over the com- putations of the Engineering Depart- ment in connection with the pro- posed assessments and also viewed the property on the ground and it Is his belief' that the assessments are more than fair and should be collected as levied. It will be remembered that Mr. Zemanek was one of the instigators and promoters of the sewer for which he is being assessed and also owns Lot 10 on which he has a home and which said sewer very adequately serves. It is your City Manager's opinion that Lots 7, 8 and 9 carry a very low assessed valuation as these lots are valuable lots for building purposes. Mr. Zemanek has also ov. erlooked the fact that sewers are not assessed on the basis of 1/4 vaI ues, but the law states that the as sessments cannot exceed $3.00 pei front foot and none of his assess ments exceed this amount. It is therefore the opinion of your Cit} Manager that the assessments are equitable should be collected. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the report of the City Manager be approved and made a matter of rec- ord. Seconded by Councilman Meus- er. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Andelfinger, Council- men Jansen, McEvoy, Meuser and Schuckert. Nays—None. April 1, 1929. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held March 25th a petition from Joseph F. Huber, et al, requesting the City not to take out the stone curb on Main Street from Madison Park to Seminary Street was referred to your City Manager for report. Your City Manager has investigat- ed this proposition on the ground and finds that a large majority of the stone curb is in good condition and it is not our intention to re- move same where it is possible to make the new improvement conform to the old curb. On the east side of Main Street along the park pro- perty it is our intention to construct a concrete curb inside of the present stone curb due to the fact that the east side of the street will be cut down materially over the way it is at present and the old stone curb will serve as a retaining wall for the parking space between the curb and sidewalk and between the very southerly end of the improvement the stone curb will have to come out to conform to the new lines and grade of the street. On the balance of the street nearly all of the stone curb can remain and as we are call- ing for bids on both the integral curb and plain concrete slab, no change will have to be made in our plans. Your City Manager therefore rec- ommends that the petition be placed on file as the petition will be prac- tically satisfied when the improve- ment is made. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ., City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the report of the City Manager be approved and made a matter of rec- ord. Seconded by Councilman Jan. sen.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At your meeting held March 25th a communication from R. B. Purviance requesting a price on Lot 26 Burton's Addition, togeth- er with a communication from the Water Superintendent, was referred to your City Manager for report. Your City Manager has investigat- ed this property and it is his belief that a price of $100.00 should be placed on the lot and if this is ac- ceptable to Mr. Purviance that the property should be sold to him at that figure. Very respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the report of the City Manager be approved and made a matter of rec- ord. Seconded by Councilman Meus- er.

Gentlemen: At your meeting held April 1st a verbal protest from Mr. Frank Blocker protesting against his assessment for a sewer in Green Street and Avoca Street assessed against Lot 176 Finley's Addition was referred to your City Manager for report. Mr. Blocker's Lot 176 is a very large lot on the northwest corner of Green and Avoca Street, being 198 feet long, with an average depth of 85 feet and it is possible to divide this lot up into three building lots, one facing on Green Street with an average width of 65 feet and a depth of 100 feet and two lots facing on Avoca Street with an average width of 49 feet, one lot with an average depth of 95 feet and the other with an average depth of 115 feet. The total assessment against this proper- ty is $198.28 and has a total frontage on Avoca Street of 2151/2 feet. The same frontage on the east side of Avoca Street has a total assessment of $300.91 or $102.63 more than Mr. Blocker's property is being assessed and it would therefore appear that his assessment is an equitable one and should stand as assessed. Your City Manager therefore rec- ommends that no change be made in the original assessment. A small plat is attached hereto for the Council's inspection. Very Respectfully submitted, O. A. KRATZ, City Manager. Councilman Schuckert moved that the report of the City Manager be approved. Seconded by Councilman Meuser.
