Also,
E. A. Rendricksou and others petition
Your committee, to whom was referred
the petition of E. A. Hendrickson and
Geo. 0. Lawton, for the vacation of part
of Smelling street, respectfully report as
follows:
That we consider it a damage to other
owners of property in the vicinity to have
the street vacated, as Smelling street is
now opened for two blocks east of Gin
ton street, and will no doubt be further ex-
tended at some future time. The proposed
vacation would leave property owners in
the southeast portion of block 3, Cottage
lots, with only one means of access to
Seventh street, while they now have two.
This would also be the case with owners of
property in blocks and of Asylum ad-
dition. Your committee, after a careful
examination of the matter, are of the
opinion that the request of the petitioners
should not be granted. Respectfully,
GATES A. JOHNSON, Chairman.
Adopted.
Also,
Karl Simmons and others protest.
Committee report that in consideration
of the protest against the opening of st.
Anthony avenue we find that nearly all
the property owners that are to be assessed
for the opening have signed the protest.
Therefore, while we think the improve
ment should be made, we are of the opin-
ion that the opening should not proceed
against so strong protest. We therefore
recommend that all proceedings in the
matter of the opening be discontinued and
abandoned until it is petitioned for by
those that will be assessed for the same,
and that the Board of Public Works dis
continue all further proceedings in the
matter.
G. A. JOHNSON,
Chairman.
