Gentlemen--Your Committee on
Ways and Means 10 whom was refer
red the communication from the Pub
lie Lighting Commission asking for
transfer OF balance brought forward
from fiscal. year ending June 80. 1910,
respectfully report that we have had
the matter under consideration and
md that the Public Lighting Commits
sion In submitting It's estimates for the
present fiscal year included therein an
estimate for extension OF the boiler
room: new smoke stack and coal and
ash conveyer; that when the plans
were carried out in detail IL was found
that certain changes were absolutely
necessary in order to obtain a satisfac-
tory Job: that II was found upon bor-
Ing more test holes that foundations
for the coal bunker In the old building
would be required. while at first It
was thought those now in place would
sufhce: that in order to properly in
stall the conveyer. IT will be necessary
to raise the roof OF the old boiler room
ana to add to the height Of the con-
templated addition; that these essen
ttal and absolutely necessary changes
nave increased the cost considerably
In excess az the estimated appropria-
ton and in order to carry. on the work
as now contemplated. the Commission
asks for transfer OF unexpended bal
ending June so. 1910. to the credit OF
the appropriations allowed. Your Com
mittee are OF the opinion that IL the
work is undertaken, IL should be done
construction. and we therefore recon-
mend that the request OF the Commits
sion be granted. and therefore offer
the following resolution.
