ANOTHER CHANGE MADE
In the Proposed New Charter, as Re
CARDS Sidewalk Building and
improvements.

Since finishing and presenting the
charter to the City Council, the COM
mittee having the same in charge has
been so universally requested by citi-
zens to make change in, the section
relating to sidewalk construction that
it decided to make a slight change
therein. The change is simply this:
Section 6 of Article 2, providing a
penalty for failure to construct side
walks, etc, has been eliminated, and
in lieu thereof the following will be
inserted. This change should make
it satisfactory with every citizen of
this town on this point in the charter:
Section 6. Sidewalks. The City of
Palestine may also, by proper ordi-i
nances, provide for the creation of i'm
provement districts to include the real
estate to be benefited by any sidewalk
construction, repair or improvement,
and provide for the assessment and
collection, on due notice, of the cost
of such work of sidewalk construc-
ton, repair or Improvement, by means
of taxes on the real estate benefited,
which shall be declared a~len on such
real estate, and no real estate of any
kind within the improvement district
shall be exempt from any of the taxes
or assessments authorized by this
Act, and the city may raise the money
for such work on bonds or assess
ment warrants.
But it is expressly provided that no
such sidewalk construction, repair or
Improvement, within the residence
sections of the city, shall ever be or
dered under Section or Section 6 of
Article 2 of this Act, save upon the
written petition of three-fourths ma
jority of the adult resident real es-
tate owners within the district where
in the sidewalks are to be located,
such petition stating the nature of the
sidewalk and the materials of which
it is to be ordered made.
