Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
At a session of the City Council
of the City of Dubuque, Iowa, held
June 29, 1950 the following motion
was adopted.
That the communication of Mr.
and Mrs. John Roth with reference
to the parking condition in front
of their residence at 1267 Thomas
Pl., and asking permission to put
ap a parking sign, be referred to
the Chief of Police for investiga-
tion and report,
I have made an investigation
relative to this petition and found
a general bad situation on the en-
tire Thomas Place.
There are eight residences on
the East side of Thomas Place and
eighteen on the West side of the
street, This street has no crab lino
and is platted fm' 21 feet. For the
most part this street from Stafford
Ave., to Ascension Street resembles
a country lane widening out in
places but mostly just a car track.
Between louses and walls on the
West side of the street and tele-
phone poles on the east side of
the street there is only about 14 or
15 feet clear for vehicular traffic
and part of that is grass grown,
The complaint indicates that
when cars are parked they are eith-
i
l
R
~.
3peciat Session, Duty 27th, 1950 397
er parked so that they block traf-
fic or are parked on the property
of others. Tlus is true and it can
be seen that fire apparatus, gar-
bage trucks, or any vehicular what-
soevcr would have great difficulty ~
in traversing this street if at all.
I have discussed this situation
v,•itlt Chief Thomas Hickson and he
permits ere to state that a fire
hazard exists as regards movement
of fire apparatus.
Under existing conditions and
until this street is improved it is
my reoomntendation that parking
he restricted at all times on Thom-
as Place,
Relative to parking in private
places I would suggest that people
who are affected resort to tl:e
means provided bylaw for redress.
Respectfi~ily submitted,
Jos. H. Strub, Chief of Police,
Councilman Austin moved that
the recommendation of Chief of
Police Strub be approved. Second-
ed by Councilman Kalb. Carried by

Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
At a session of the City Council
of the Ctty of Dubuque, Iowa, l-,eld
Jutre 29, 1950 the following motion
was adopted.
That the Chief of Police and the
Chief of the Fire Department be
instructed to cause an investiga-
tion to be made as to traffic and
panting conditions on West 11th
Street from Higlland Place to the
West end of said West 11th Street
with a view as to the accessability
of the fire apparatus and t'fie move-
ment of traffic due to the parleng
of cars on both sides of West 11th
Street, also to cause an investi~
gation to be made as to the traffic
and parking conditions on Algona
Street from Bennett Street to Grace
Street with a view as to the acces
lability of the fire apparatus and
movement of traffic duo to park
iug on both sides of Algona Street.
and to submit their report and re
commendations back to the Cit3
Council.
We have made an investigation
and it is our opinion that no great
hazard exists as to accessability of
€ire apparatus or general traffic
conditions, therefore it is otu 're-
commendation tl-iat restrictions or
other conditions now existent on
these streets be not changed.
Respectfully yours,
Jos. H. Strub, Chief of Police
Thomas C. Hickson,
Chief of the Fite Department
Councilman Wynes moved that
the tecotnmerdation of Chief of

son be approved, Seconded by May-

Mayor Clarence P, Welu, zed
Members of the City Cou?toil
of the City of Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
As you know, the National Guard
have moved out of the building
located at 9th & Iowa Streets,
known as Fire Headquarters. As
this building was at one time closed
to all large gatherings of over 300
people, and since nothing has been
done to make it safer, I wish to
recommend to Your Honorable
Body, that the 3rd floor of this
building be closed for future pub-
lic gatherings, The water, gas and
electricity lave been disconnected.
In cold weather it is almost im-
possible to heat this 3~d floor, and
it can not be done without shut-
ting off radiators on the 1st and
2nd floors.
I am of the opinion that any
rental that may be received from
this floor would be far less than
the cost of maintenance.
Hoping far a favorable reply to
the above matter, I remain,
Respectfully yours,
Thos. C, Hickson,
Chief of Fire Dept.
Councilman Wynes moved that
the recommendation of Fire Chief
Hickson be approved. Seconded by
Councilman Kolb. Carried by the
faliowing vote:

At the meeting of July 3, 1950
we were instructed to inspect the

and wish to report the following:

402 Special Session, July 27th, 1950
assist the Electrical Inspector, was
referred to the City Manager far a
report and recommendation.
I have examined the matters re-
ferr•ed to in the petition and find
that the time of an electrical in-
spector can be better utilized if he
is not required to spend as much
time in the office replying to ques-
tions concerning permits and elec-
trical fnstallatinns. Accordingly
am arranging for the services of a
man to take over office duties, not
only for the Electrical Inspector
but for the Building and Plumb-
ing Inspectors as well.
This will permit these inspectors,
during this period of high building
activity, to devote the greater
share of their efforts in actual in-
spection work. It is my belief that
this change will accomplish the pur
poses requested in the petition.

To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
At the City Council meeting of
May 15, 1950, the petition of Louis
M. Helz of 1790 So. Grandview
Ave. requesting that the curb line
on Laurel Street be allowed to re-
main in its original location instead
of being moved three feet toward
his lot line, was referred to the
City Engineer for investigation and
report.
In compliance with your instruct-
ions, the following report and ac-
companying plan are respectfully
submitted:
(1) The original plat of Linhein's
Subdivision filed for record on Jan-
uary 26, 1860, carries the dedicat-
ion of Laurel Street as 33 feet
wide along a straight line extending
from Grandview Ave, to the north
line of said subdivision.
(2) The present curb line was
established from a survey of exist-
ing property corners along both
lines of the street 4vhich have been
set by licensed surveyors. The ac-
companying plan shows the estab-
lished corners and their relation-
ship with the established curb line.
(3) An inspection of the plan re-
veals the following facts;
(a) A line drawn through
corners marked (1), (2) and (3) and
extended north intersects the north
line of the subdivision at a point
approximately 8 feet west of the
established northeast corner "A"
and approximately 10 feet west of
the established corner "B".
(b) The remaining established
property corners lying north of
Cannon Street do not line up per-
fectly but do represent a more log-
ical and uniform line from which
to locate the street improvement.
(c) The property owned by
the petitioner does not have mar-
ked property corners.
After careful consideration of the
above data, the curb line was es-
tablished as shown on the plan.
Respectfully submitted,
R. J. Gallagher
City Engineer.
