Council Will Act Tonight on Houses
that Encroach Upon Gary and Fourth.
A special session of the Common
Council has been called for tonight for
the purpose of taking some action on the
enroatchment of the property OF Mr.. G.
F. Green, located at the corner OF Cary
and South Fourth Streets. Mr.. Sol
Cutchins. representing the owner, Will
appear in his behalf.
It will be remembered that short
time ago, Mr.. Green had a couple OF
handsome flats constructed upon his
property at the. above mentioned streets.
After they had been completed it was
discovered that they encroached upon
both Cary ard Fourth Streets for space
Of several inches. "A petition was for
warded to the Committee on Streets ask
ing them to permit the houses to re-
main and favorable report along this
limo was forwarded to the Common Coun-
Gil.
The matter was brought to the atten-
ton of this body at the last meeting.
but on motion was laid on the table for
an indefinite length of time, thus allow
ing the houses to stand. But this is not
what Mr.. Green wants. He is desirious
of disposing of the property but cannot
do so until the city gives him legal
right to allow the houses to remain as
they now stand without fear Of molesta-
ton in the future
There seems little doubt but that this
course will be taken by the Common
Council tonight
