Local News Notes and

PASADENA. Aug. There is consid-

proper paving material for East Colo
the resolution of intention for the work
on that thoroughfare. and 1T will prob
ably be under way before long. Now is
the time for the property owners to
speak up If shsy are not satisfied with
the material proposed to be used. Some
have done SO already, and q protest is to
be filed before the next meeting of the
council against the plan suggested by the
city engineer at the last meeting. The
portion OF East Colorado street macad-
amized by order of the supervisors as a
test has not come up to the expectations of
is advocates since it has been thoroughly
wet down few times, and as conse-
ccencs many are not in favor of paw lg
tks rema;rues C{ ."a street with eeen
such modification OF tnat plan and ma
trial as that suggested, wherein cobble
stones are used as a base for the oisin-
tegratea granite. The general opinion
seems to be that it would be better to
pave the street with the best OF material.
even if 1t can not be done at once, since
the estimated cost OF the macadam is IL
cents per square foot while the cost of
asphaltum such as already laid in the
business section would probably be only
be about 8 cents more per square foot.
This makes the figures $3.41 per running
foot for macadam, as against $3.50 for as
phaltum. and of course the latter would
make a pavement that is known to be of
very superior quality.
