The proposed new extension and widening of Seward Street to the Pacific Coast Dock is certain to be an expensive improvement for the taxpayers of Juneau. The City is already heavily burdened with debt. Possibly more than is legally justified. The interest on this is a mortgage against every property owner and taxpayer m Juneau, beccuse they have to pay the freight in the long run, which must be added to their cost of living. At the present rate of retirement of the municipal interest bearing bonds it will be years before the $10,- 000 present owners of abutting properties on the pro- posed extension are asking from the community will be retired, and to this must be added some thousands of dollars in interest. The community needs a lot of other improve- ments far more than they need this one. Our schools are crowded, paving and sidewalks are badly needed in many parts of town, the approach and equijpmer for the projected small boat harbor must be construct ed. This proposed street extension will delay them just that much. Remember that the original $10,000 is just the beginning. The streets will have to be paved and lighted, and sidewalks constructed. Because of its location priority will be demanded. Conceding that the development is desirable, it is after all a commercial venture, Abutting property owners undoubtedly plan to build a dozen or more new shops along the street to rent at profitable figures. They surely are 1ot giving away valuable property for nothing. It is the ordinary practice for the promoters of such projects to donate to the community, withou any cost, the land required to carry out the necessary public improvements. If in the present instance, the interested owners desire to show their good faith, they should do the same thing. They would then be i position to ask the City to do its share. Most of the signers of the petition supporting the project doubtless expect to reap some benetfits of add tional business diverted from other siteets to the new one. The Ciiy Council should move slowly in voting public money to aid private commercial ventures, and no Councilman who has. a financial interest in it should vote on the question. Let those who are to eat the cake pay for \ new street may be a fine thing, but this one should not be rushed through without some thought. Every t payer should have time to think it over. “1 IMARINE AIRWAYS Governor Riggs A ARy Fm,mfll.A T.
