This |would mean that New Britain must spend at least $11,000 more per an- num than it is now paying. | The appropriation for street light. ing for the present fiscal year was $34,500 and Mr. Willlams estimated | Jtlmt the cost for the next fiscal year under the present basis of payment {will be $85,800. | Those present at the meeting were | Chairman Thomas W. Crowe, Martin H. Kenney, John Olson, John 1%, Di- Nonno, P, C. McIntyre, Louls A, Older- shaw and Clerk G. H. Johnson. Tentative Estimates Discussed.

During a discussion of the snow problem, the subject of South Main street was brought up. Mr. Williams expressed doubt whether the street will ever be a first-class thoroughfare in the winter; and said the city would be benefited if it buiit a new street from the junction of South Main and Stanley streets through the lowlands to Cherry street. Mr. Williams said macadam should be put on Lilec street, cost $2,400; Garden street, Lincoln street to Black Rock avenue, cost $5,250; Linden street, East to Chapman, cost $5,600; $ 4.500\‘ {sanne are hurriedly reviving the \ ' SureRelief FOR. l,“ DIGSTION -~ Williams Siyj = Silver street, Broad to Orange, eost $2,700, and Arch street, from Shut tle Meadow avenue to Linden street, Sreet Sprinkling $15,000, The expense of sireet will be approximately $14 and Mr. Williams favored asking for $15,000, the allowance for the press ent year. 0 It is probable that the state ask for $5,000 as the city's share of repaving West Main street, from Hlack Roek bridge to the Plainville | town line Would Allow Salt On Walks, Mr, Williams recommended that the ordinance prohibiting the strew. ing of salt on icy sidewalks be amend- ed to allow salt to be mixed with sand, On motion of Commissioner Kenney, it was voted to make such a recommendation to the commen council.
