Remonstrance Against Walk. Herbert R. Kind for Mrs. H. L. Kind and eleven other residents of Division street remonstrated against the build- ing of walks, crosswalks and curbings in Division street from Oak to Roath streets,claiming that the present walks are sufficient, they are traveled by few, and the new ones would be a bur- den to the propedty owners and a greater benefit to residents of other streets than to Division stret residents. ‘The usz of the walks wouldn't warrant the expense, while there is a large ledge, part of which has been remov- ed, but it would take $400 more to take | it all out. They desired a hearing be- fore the committee reported upon the matter, and it was decided to give them a hearing the first Monday in January. Gilbert and Leona Bowers asked for the privilege of connecting their prop- erty with the sewer in Page's lane. It was referred to the public works com- mittee, which committee acted favor- ably upon the petition and it was ap- proved.
