PROPERTY OWNERS

Express the Belief That
Redwood Trustees Have
Misused Appropriations
PRESENT A PETITION

REDWOOD CITY, Nov. 20.-A petit
tion, signed by number of property
owners on Roosevelt avenue. was pre-
sented to the town trustees last even
ing, asking that the work of grading
that avenue be postponed until the
town can raise money enough to push
the work through without additional
expense to the property owners, who
are paying interest on a large bond
say has been misused by a lot Of
grafters closely connected with the
city's business.
About year ago a bond issue Of
100000 for street improvements was
carried by a large vote and contracts
were let, 1T is said, regardless of price,
to men who were either members of
the town board or closely connected
with them. No tab was kept upon
the amount of money spent and the
board had little idea of the towns
financial standing until after the con-
tract for grading Roosevelt avenue
had been let, when the startling dis
coyery was made that the board had
not only spent the 800, 900, but had the
town in debt for more than 1t could
pay with the taxes of this year and
next.
The board then declared its inten-
ton to pave a strip sixteen feet wide
the full length of the avenue and
charge the improvements to the indi-
vidual property owners. AS the road
is in a very bad condition at the pres
ent time, many of the property own
ers are willing to pay for any kind
of improvements which will afford
them temporary relief. There are
many of them, however, who believe
they have been misused and declare
that rather than allow the board have
another opportunity to let contracts
to its own members they will fight the
matter.
The petition was denied on the
ground that 1t had not been signed by
a majority of the property owners
along the avenue.
