SIDEWALKS.
The City Council Considered Them
Last Night.
ADOPTED,

The city council met in extra session
last evening to consider sidewalks.
The property owners on East Railroad
avenue, between Walter and High
streets, want pavements and the coun-
Gil passed an ordinance ordering its
construction.
An ordinance was then taken up by
which the city engineer is instructed
to establish the grade of all sidewalks
ordered and will receive SIS for each
block of grade so established. 1t is
also made a misdemeanor for any
property owner to commence the build
ing of a sidewalk without first getting
from the engineer the grade.
A resolution making it optional with
property owners whether they use &C.
ment or vitrified brick vas adopted.
The resolution is:
Be it resolved by the city council of
the city of Albuquerque, n. NJ:
That. when in the opinion of the city
council of the city of Albuquerque, the
building or rebuilding OF any sidewalk
of cement or of vitrifed brick along
any block in the city and without the
fire limits thereof. is necessary. and
whenever the majority of the owners
of lots abutting such sidewalk shall by
petition indicate of which material. ce-
ment or vitriied brick, they prefer, the
council shall order the sidewalk along
that block built of that material. Pro
vided, however. that in case of the
failure OF said majority to indicate
their preference as above. then in h a
case said sidewalk shall be built of
which ever material the council may
order and provided, further, that when
ever along any one side of any block a
portion of the sidewalk has been or
dered built of cement or of vitrified
brick. the remainder of the sidewalk
along that side of the block shall be
ordered built of the same material.
The effect of this resolution is to
give property owners outside of fire
limits the choice of using cement or
vitrified brick and yet making the walk
in each block of uniform material. A
petition from property owners asking
that the ordinance ordering sidewalks
on the north side of Gold avenue. be
tween Third and Sixth streets. be re
pealed. was laid on the table. The rea
son given was that the lots are vacant
