Dubuque, Iowa, June 27, 1914.
To the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: -At the meeting of your
committee of the whole held on June
22nd last, I was instructed to give you
a written opinion as to the length of
time that the city has the right to
hold and retain the five (5 %) per cent
of the total cost of an improvement
mentioned in the set of specifications
used for street improvement. That
section is as follows:
"Five (5 %) per cent of the total
cost of the improvement will be re-
tained by the city for one year after
the completion of the work as a guar-
antee that the improvement will be
kept in first class condition for that
•
period of time. "
Conceding that the city has the
right to incorporate as a part of its
regular plans and specifications gov-
erning street improvements the five
(5 %) per cent clause, above set out,
the right to retain that amount out
of the contract price is limited to such
a time as the specifications provide.
Our specifications provide for one
year after the completion of the work
and the money retained is retained as
a guarantee that the improvement will
be kept in first class condition for that
period of time. That is the limit that
we are allowed to retain this money
in case the improvement is kept in
first class condition. The improve-
ment is supposed to be good for a
year and the five (5 %) per cent is the
guarantee that it will be kept in good
repair for that time and no longer.
If the improvement is not kept in good
repair during the year after the im-
provement is completed the city has
- the right, at the expiration of the
year, to use as much of the money
retained as it will take to make the
necessary repairs. But this must be
done within a reasonable time after
the year has expired. Just what
•constitutes a reasonable time the cir-
cumstances in each case must deter-
mine. I would suggest that the period
of six months be considered reason-
able in mostly every case and no
longer unless extraordinary •circum-
stances alter the conditions.
I would also suggest that the coun-
cil hold every contractor to a strict
• compliance with the terms of his con-
tract and if the contract is not com-
pleted as per specifications at the
time provided therefor, that the
penalties be enforced against such
contractors without discrimination. If
this be done in a few instances I ani
• confident that a greater efficiency will
be attained and the city will reap the
benefit.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Attorney.

Dubuque, Ia., July 1, 1914.
To the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Dubuque, Ia.
Gentlemen: -
Please find hereto attached the
judgment and decree rendered by the
Honorable .Robert T, Bonson, Judge
of the District. Court. in the matter of
the appeal of the Dunleith & Dubuqiie
Bridge Co, vs. City of Dubuque and
Board of Equalization, Equity No.
17448, and Dubuque & Dunleith
Bridge Co. vs. City of Dubuque and
Board of Equalization, Equity No.
17659. This, as you know, is the de-
cision rendered by Judge Bonson up-
on the appeal taken by the High
Bridge Co. from the assessment which
was placed upon it by the Assessor,
which assessment was confirmed by
the Board of Equalization. The ap-
peal was taken from the assessment
as made in the years of 1911 and 1912.
The original assessment appealed
from was $752,bw0.00. This assess-
ment has been reduced by the court
to $501,660.00, as shown by the de-
cree and judgment above referred to
and hereto attached.
• Respectfully submitted,

At the last regular meeting of the

Linehan & Molo asking permission on
behalf of Dubuque College to construct
a tunnel under Cox street, was re-
ferred to me with instructions to as-
certain what manner of proceeding
would be necessary to confer said

an ordinance advisable to cover that
situation and have consequently pre-
pared one subject to the acceptance
to the Dubuque College.

improvement as contemplated by law,

street railway company. I€ the said

Dubuque, Iowa, July 16, 1914.
Gentlemen of the City Council:
Complying with your action of July
9th, relative to the condemnation of
house boats along the river front, I
beg to announce that I have appointed
Messrs. E. J. Sauer, Norman E. Win -
nie and August A. Schilling to act as
an appraisal committee to determine
1 I
week in advance of the day upon
which the proposals are to he acted
upon. In the event that this notice
should prove faulty the assessment
for the improvement would be endan-
gered. I am very anxious to prevent
the possibility of any such contin-
gency. The delay which would be
occasioned by a re- advertising of this
work would be insignificant as com-
pared with the amount of litigation
which might result if your action
should stand.
The question presented to us is en-
tirely new, our supreme court never
having touched upon the same and
we stand without a precedent to guide
us. The possibility of having the
question decided adversely to us is
just as great as having a favorable
decision. I must advise your honor-
able body therefor, that this contract
is entirely too large to warrant us to
gamble with the result. My duty re-
quires me. under such conditions, to
recommend that your honorable body
re- consider your action in approving
the report of the Committee of the
Whole in awarding the contract for
said improvement and that you reject
all the bids submitted for said work
and re- advertise for new bids This
conclusion is one founded not in
haste or without due deliberation but
is the outgrowth of serious and per-
sistent research, having in view the
best interests of our city and believ-
ing that a mighty serious situation
would be avoided.
I also request that this opinion be
made a matter of record.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Attorney.
On motion of Ald. Clancy the re-
port of the city attorney was approv-
ed and the city council to reconsider
their action.
Ald. Clancy moved that the City
Recorder re- advertise for bids for the
improvement of Jones street and Lo-
cust street and the City Engineer be
instructed to make the necessary
changes in the plans and specifica-
tions. Carried.

Dubuque, Iowa, July 10, 1914.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of Dubuque, Iowa.
Iowa:
Gentlemen : —In view of the fact
that at a special meeting of your Hon-
orable Body held on July 9th, last, a
contract for the improving of Locust
street south from Sixth street, was,
by a majority vote of this Council,
awarded to one of the bidders, 1 deem
it my duty as your legal adviser, to
furnish you with my views on the
question. The situation which has
developed in regard to the letting of
this contract is of a very serious na-
ture and should be seriously con-
sidered regardless of personal or pri-
vate views. While it is and has been
my opinion that the proceedings rela-
tive to this contract are regular and
strictly in accordance with all laws
and ordinances still there is grave
danger of a contrary position. The
danger lies in the validity of the no-
tice to contractors in connection with
the condition in the specifications re-
quiring a contractor to submit a sam-
ple of the material to be used one
