Broadway Paving Assessed
on Basis Of Benefits
and Damages

Tie new assessment of the costs OF
the Broadway paving, which re-
presents large amount of work by
the board, and which was necessltateo
by the invalldating of the original
assessment, was confirmed by the
board of public works at their meeting
held in the city hall Saturday evening,
at which all members were present.
This assessment is leviei on the basis
OF benefits and damages.
At this meeting the objections filed
by Henning Landau through his
attorney, A. P. Blanchard, were
formally withdrawn. so the board had
a clear field when 1t came to voting
on confirming the assessment. The
Broadway paving extends from Second
street east to the east approach OF the
Broadway bridge. The new assess.
ment levies about the same amount OF
costs against all the property fronting
on this street with slight changes, and
is practically the same as was in the
original assessment on the basis OF
number of feet of abutting property.
The assessment was approved by the
city council at It's meeting immediate.
ly after the adjournment OF the board
Of public works.
