IMPROVEMENTS TIED UP FOR A TIME Judge McClenahan Decides That Street Grades Must be Estab- lished by Ordinance Instead of Resolution. Judge McClenahan on Wednesday evening conducted a hearing on the order to show cause why the tempor- ary injunction should not be granted in the case of John Hepfel vs. Village of Grand Rapids et al. There were two grounds on which the plaintiff relied, the first being that it was necessary that the estab- lishment of a street grade should be made through the medium of an ordinance instead of a resolution, and the second, conceding that if a reso- lution was sufficient for the purpose, that the resolution in question was so indefinite in its terms as to be street is invalid. The council, there- fore, will be compelled to not only provide. proper grades by means of an ordinance, but if the improyement of the street is continued, to enter into a pew contract with suitable persons. Bids will have to be adver- tised for again. F. F. Price and George H. Spear were attorneys for Hepfel, and C. L. Pratt represented the village in this action. Young People Wed.
