Present system Clumsy.
The present system of alley and
sidewalk paving at the expense OF
abutting property owners is operated
under the provisions of clumsily de-
vised State law, amendments to which
from time to time have only served to
make it more dilatory and unsatisfac-
tory. The Council appropriates IN the
annual budget about $4,000 or $4,000
for paving sidewalks, the fund being
put at the disposal Of the COMMITTEES
on Streets and apportioned among the
wards.
Some member Of the Council intro
tduces on roll call resolution provid-

block at the expense of property own
