| The city council at it's meeting Wed.
nesday night rejected the petition OF
| Josiah Alkire, and also q similar one
from II. L. Armstrong asking that they
be granted permission to tunnel through
a certain strip of land that Mr.. Alkire
had previously donated TO the city.
The petition read as follows, and was
brought before the board OF city trus-
toes last Friday night:
The undersigned represents that on
the 10th of January, 1891, he donated
and decided to the City of Pomona, q
strip of LAND on the north side OF his
containing 56-100 acres OF land. That
by said deed he did not convey to the
city any wster rights, but retained all
water and water rights for his own bsn-
eft. That he is now making develop
ments of water on his own land by tun-
mel, adjacent to that conveyed to the
city and desires to extend said tunnel
northerly through said strip OF land,
about 30 or 40 feet so az to take there
from any waters that may be beneath
said land at the point where said tunnel
may cross it. Said tunnel will be about
80 feet beneath the surface OF the
ground at the place it enters and crosses
said strip of land, and viii! in no wey in
terfere with the use of said land for park
or other purposes or any vegetation
growing on the surface. The under
signed therefore asks permission and
right of way from this board OF trustees
to make said tunnel through said strip
OF land Cor the purposes herein men
toned.
The city attorney at that meeting re-
ported that he had examined the deeds to
the land; that he found that Alkire had
a right to 40 100 and the city to 5l-100 OIL
the water in the 5000 OF an acre decided
by Alkire, and that when developed it
must DO done conjointly by both owners
and that the city could give Alkire the
right to the water by deed for valuable
consideration.
The bond offered by s. J. Gilmore in
order that he might conduct q saloon iu
: Pomona WIS accepted. This finally eeti
the matter at rest.
