The paving of this strect. which includes possibly a quarter of a mile, will cost at the most $19.560. If only part of it is repaired, that is, if the en- tire road docs not have to be rebuilt the cost will amount to $11,718 The lighting amounts to month. the budget for the cominz year hoard asks for there are more last and last yeu $67 building a per Main street far as rail- included in figure this independent Merian board it will of its own ac- city's street 25,506 every the 006 inasmuch lights thi bill wmounted to vear tian Two More Trucks Needed Two small trucks will be asked in the bu nd if this isn't ed, sighed Mr. Merian pessimisti Iy, “it will mean that work for the truck men would be included in the budget for 1ools as would also the request for money to buy another sct of wheels for *old faithful” the steamroller One new car at an estimated cost of $1,300 for the street department will e asked for in the budget.

Sewer maintenance will cost at least 832,000, Black Rock bridge will cost $16.500 and this figure was put in the bud- get. There'was some discussion re- ‘zarding the Glen street dump, the hoard finally deciding to turn a deaf ear to complaints for the time at least. In spring the members claim- ed, the dump will be closed of ne cossity for it will be full that time. Some suggestion of what might be done in the future regarding the dump was mentioned by Engincer Merian when he said that if the dump were properly filled in by the addition of soil it would make fdeal place for a playgr Consideration of the miven tim right of all other matters being one side No one appearcd for the construction of a for Wightman road hetween Virgin- ia and Stecle strects, but the hoard recognizing the need of it voted fo recommend its construction to the council Comparative Paving Data A communication from the coun- cil asking a report on ihe compara- tive wearing qualities of the amiesite and asphalt pavements on West Main street was tabled as was the propo- sition to extend Myrtle street to Cor- bin avenue. City Tngincer Merian was in doubt as to what was meant regarding this matter. A communication from the coun- cil regarding what could be done on the matter of making Washington place, estending from Main to Wash- ington street, passable. requesting data as to the agreement with the railroad, etc., was also tabled. C Lingineer Merian stated that the city had a right of way in this which is on railroad property. He thought that paving the alley would solve the problem. A communication suggesting that the board of public works sit with the park board and city planning hoard to consider where should be planted on the streets was also tabled. No action was faken on the peti- tion of the Connecticut Light & Pow- er Co. for pole locations on Wight- man road and Laurel strect. Last of all before taking up the consideration of the budget a com- munication was read from the may- or requesting the cooperation of the hoard in keeping the budget as low as possible. or much ' The trucks more was ctically shunted to 1inst sew sked o] letter | to the | this old | for the an | alley | work in parks | the | | and | items | wtten- | common | > merely held up | council | | first Executive Personnel 0§ New Britain College Club IFRO Mrs. Donald I..
