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

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

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

Whereas, remonstrances have been filed with the City Council by the o wners of the property herein de- scribed against proposed assess- ments to pay for the improvement of Julien avenue from Delhi street to Delhi street which remonstrances have received the consideration of the City Council. Be it therefore, resolved that the following corrections be made. That the assessment against Lot 2 of Sub. of 46, 47, 48 and 2 of 49 of Morheiser's Add., be cancelled. That the assessment against Lot 2 of 1 of 1 of M. L. 172 be reduced to $1568 86. That the assessment against Lots 1, 2 and 3 of Sub. of Lot 12 of M. L. 172 be reduced to $150.00 per lot. That the assessment against Lot 11 of Loetscher and Trueb's Sub., be reduced to $150.00. That the assessment against Lot 12 Loetscher and Trueb's Sub., be reduced to $187.50.

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