The € O Millinery Co. 943 Market st —— COBBLESTONES T0 BE REMOVED —— Supervisors Favor Asphalt Pavement on Concrete Foundation. ¢ e—— The Supervisors’ Street Committee at a special meeting held yesterday recom- mended that Clay, Washington, Sacra- mento and Pine streets, between Mont- gomery and Sansome, be paved with as- | phalt on a six-inch concrete foundation, the Board of Public Works to prepare the plans and specifications for the work. This action is a rebuke to the last-men- tioned board, the recommendation of which that the streets be paved with bi- tuminous rock on a cobblestone founda- tion met with severe opposition at the last meeting of the Supervisors. Besides the members of the Street Committee, Supervisors Curtis, Connor and Dwyer, there were present at the meeting Mayor Phelan, Commissioners Manson and Maguire of the Board of Public Works and Citv Engineer Grun- sky. F. W. Dohrmann, president of the Merchants’ Assocfation; A. S. Baldwin, president of the Grant Avenue Improve- ment Club, and Edgar Painter, secretary of the North Central Improvement Club, strongly urged upon the commitfee the necessity of constructing the best kind of pavement in the downtown districts and to remove the unsightly cobble- stones that disfigure certain sections of the city. A long discussion followed on what constituted the best form of pave- ment to be used on the streets. Manson explained that in recommending bitumi- nous rock on a basalt base his board had considered the cost and durability. The difference in cost between that pavement and bitumen laid on a concrete base was $3500 in favor of the former and it is guaranteed for ten years. A. 8. Baldwin and General Warfleld ex- pressed themselves as being in favor of laying a pavement with cobblestone base on Grant avenue and referred to_the pavement in front of the Masonic Tei Ele, which consists of bitumen and ct:t lestones and is as good to-day as when first laid. ‘“We have been for five years,” sald Mr. Dohrmann, ‘“‘endeavoring to secure speci- fications for street work which will not exclude all forms of pavement save bitu- men. I belleve the ravement proposed by the Board of Public Works is superior to nnfl pavement that has been laid m‘ this city for many years, and I think the guarantee of ten years' maintenance suffi- clently protects property-owners.” Albert Meyer made a plea for nofseless avement on Pine street, where tha uildings are used for offices. Edgar Painter stated that the property-owners on Washington street between Montgom- ery and Sansome have signed contracts to ?uy one-half of the expense of bitu- minizing the street. The committee also reported in favor of the adoption of a plan by the Board jof Public Works, whereby all the streets ih the business district west of Sansome street shall hereafter be paved with bitu men or asphalt and all the streets eas | of Sansome street shall basalt foundation. The committee also recommended the paved with | stand $2500 of the ex-mse. six-inch concrete The committee reported in favor of the assage of a blil authorizing tue Board of ublic Works to enter into a contract paving of Grant avenue between O'Far- | for the construction of bunkers at Elev rell and Bush streets with bitumen on a | enth and Bryant streets for street sweep- basalt base, in accordance with the plans | ings at an estimated cost of $5005. of the Board of Works. owners The property: rangements will then be madg foF cart- and will | Ing the sweepings to Golden Gate Park. | | ?
