STREET PAVING WILL GO AHEAD, COUNCIL ACTS Property Owners to Defray Costs and Be Reim- bursed in 4 Years The City Council last night adopted a resolution authorizing the City Manager to go ahead with street paving in the down town districts as rapidly as agreements can be made with the property owners. The work will be financed by the owners of the property, and they will be reimbursed at the rate of 25 per cent each year. This policy was adopted after a full discussion between Councilmen and owners of considerable real estate in the business districts. It is expected that it will result in the paving of Front Street from Seward to Main, and between the | Alaskan Hotel and the City Dock, Franklin Street between its inter- section with Front and the Palace Theatre, and Third Street between “ranklin and Main.

Petitions were being prepared to- day for circulation among the prop- erty owners. The paving will not be limited to the several blocks| enumerated but the offer of the City is to pave any of the streets if the owners of adjoining realty will finance the work, with the agreement, of course, that the City will refund the owners at the speci- fied rate per year. The work, naturally, will be lim- ited to a certain extent. The City will not undertake more than it estimates it can pay for on the scheduled time. And the Council was of the opinion that no more paving could be done this year than on the streets mentioned. The Council last night accepted the bid of L. R.
