COUNCIL II As
A VELY
EVENING
GRADING OF STREET CAR TRACKS
UNDER CONSIDERATION.
Vote on Forcing Ogden Rapid Transit
to Comply With Stringent Grade
Requirements is a Tie.

At the meeting of the city council
last night, the question OF the proper
grading OF the street Car tracks i'll the
city, in paved districts. was the prin'
cipal topic Of discussion. Some of the
members felt that the Ogden Rapid
Transit company was not treating the
city right in the matter OF fixing
grades and they reached the point of
stating that unless the company could
comply with the requirements of the
council in the premises, the city might
as well be without a street car sys~
TEN
The city engineer. few weeks ago
arranged construction standard for
the street railway, which was similar
10 the standard used in some other
cities. a committee was appointed TO
confer with the officers of the Ogden
Rapid Transit company and ask them
to follow the plan of construction suS-
gcsted by the city engineer
In reporting the result of the con-
ference with the street railway peo-
pie at the council meeting last night
Councilman Peery stated that the com"
mittee had been cordially received By
the officials, and that the plan SuG-
geSled by the city had been given
careful consideration. The Rapid Tran
sit people told the committee, how
ever, that il would be quite imprac-
tlcable and impossible for the com
pany 10 follow the plans laid down,
because OF the enormous cost OF con
struction, that the ogden car system
was not Welding very big revenue, and
that the company had to exercise
economy In order to keep the system
in action and make the needed eX-
tensions for the accommodation of the
people. Ii was estimated by the Rap
Id Transit people that such construc-
ton. as called for by the city engin-
eer's plans, would cost from $4,000
to $4,000 per block and that such an
expenditure would be entirely out OF
the question.
In view OF this fact, the committee
had requested the engineer TO draw
other plans for the construction of
tracks In the paved districts of the
CITY for the consideration of the coun-
Gil The new plan provided for
provisional standard construction. 1t
required seveninch rails, but they did
not have to be prepared with creo-
sote, nor did IL provide for concrete
