for the purpose Of hearing the report OF
the auditing and finance committee

The difficulty relative to the width OF
the sidewalk which has been ordered
laid on the south side OF Colorado street,
between Terrace drive and Orange Grove
avenue, came up for consideration. The
walk ordered laid was 10-foot one, but
it seems that over a portion OF the dis
lance only eight feet comes within the
street lines, the balance being claimed
by private parties. The city attorney
was instructed to investigate the matter
and ascertain what rights the city had,
while the engineer was instructed to
lend all assistance possible.
The ordinance amending the plumb
ing ordinance, as recommended by the
committee of tradesmen appointed by
the council, was taken up for the last
reading, and passed by sections.

the following street work were passed !:

fontaine from Fair Oaks avenue to
Orange Grove avenue.
To sidewalk, curb and gutter Madison
avenue, both sides, between Colorado
and Center streets.
To sidewalk Walnut street on the
north side with cement walk, be-
tween Raymond and Marengo avenues.
A petition was received from P. G.
Wooster asking that Kansas street, be-
tween Fair Oaks and Raymond avenues.

The petition was received and reso-
luton of intention passed to grade the
street from Marengo avenue to Pasadena
avenue.
Mr.. Clarke reported that the street
sweeper purchased by him for the city
would be here today, if nothing hap
pened.
He was instructed to hire a man and
team to operate the same for period of
two weeks.
The auditing and finance committee
reported that it had examined the re-
port of the tax collector, showing de-
linquent taxes to the amount of 1925. 85,
and that the same was correct and
agreed with the assessment books.
Together with the added interest the
total amount is $3913.19, which list was
ordered turned over to the tax collector
for advertising and collection.

the clerks report, was $54, 1892.
The question OF the non-enforcement
