To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen:— Acting under your in -
structions in relation to a proposed
course for a sanitary sewer in Mount
Pleasant Avenue, I would respectfully
,report that I have been over the
ground and find that it is impossible
to connect said street with the present
sewer system except by going over pri-
vate property, and the route that I
Propose as being most satisfactory be-
cause serving the largest territory
would be as follows: The sewer run-
ning the entire length of Mount Pleas-
ant Avenue would have its outlet at
Vernon Street, thence east to North
Glen Oak Avenue, thence north to the
end of said avenue, thence northerly in
an almost direct line through private
property to Rosedale Avenue, thence
northeasterly to West Locust Street
and easterly to present sewer at the

C`.ty Attorney Lyon reported as fol-
lows:
To the Hon. Mayor and City Council:
Gentlemen: The undersigned, to
whom was referred the petition of
Elizabeth Bieler and Katie Carmody,
respectively, stating that certain special
assessments for street and alley im-
provements had become barred by the
running of the limitation against
their collection, and offering the pay -
ment of certain sums in full of said
assessments would report as follows:
In the matter of the Elizabeth Bieler
l etition, I find the facts to be as set
out therein, the two levies referred to
having been made in 1892 and 1895. re-
spectively. In the Katie Carmody
matter, I find that the assessment was
levied in the year 1895, assessment be-
ing for $71.25, that there has been paid
in all on said assessment the sum of
$21.25 on principal, and interest to
November 1, 1907. As all of the assess-
ment in question are barred by the
statute as construed by our courts.
legal enforcement of same could not
be effected. This has been the uni-
form holding of the city attorney's
office. The proposals of adjustment
being in each instance as fair and lib-
eral as those accepted by the council
in the past on the average, I would
recommend that the petitions be
granted as prayed.
