GRANT 10 HLETTS OF 14 1S FINAL Claims Committee Not Expected to Change Allowance The clzims committee of the com- mon council is expected to “stand pat” on its refusal to grant Mrs. Mary A. Klett the entire amount of her claim for damages caused by the Belvidere storm water flood, the viewpoint being held that the agree- ment in force between Mrs. Klett and the city, with reference to storm water piping, does not cover ihis type of damage. | Mrs. Klett through her husband. Building Commissioner Charles L. Klett, asked 328 for a washed out driveway. It was voted to allow $14 after it was determined that the flood waters which broke forth in the Commonwealth avenue district had caused considerable damage to the drive. Commissioner Klett has produced 2n agreement by which the city was permitted to place storm water pipes under the driveway on con- sideration that repair would be made by the city of any damage caused by the pipes. In this in- stance, it is held, however, that the system running under the driveway “unctioned properly, but it was th> excess surface waters which caused the damage. Mrs. Klett has declined to accept the $14 voted to her and will insist upon complete reimbursement under {he terms of the contract, which was signed by former City Engineer Jo- eph D. Williams and Councilman ‘rank L. Conlon who at that time was chairman of the hoard of public works.
