To thu Honorable Members OF the City Coun-
Gil, Owosso, Mich.
Gentle men:
We beg to call your attention to the condi.
tion OF West King straet between Chapman
and the Michigan Central railroad. When
this street was opened seven years ago a
narrow roadway was constructed which Will
not permit Of two loaded teams passing and on
which IL Is dangerous for two teams without
loads to attempt to pass.
The trafic on this street has increased very
greatly since the street was opened. and since
the continuation OF the street TO the west out
side the city limits, has been opened to traffic
We believe the city owns q right of-way
three rods wide which Is ample to make
road way to accommodate two teams abreast.
There has been much complaint on the part OF
residents In that portion OF the city and on the
part OF farmers using the street on account OF
Its narrowneS5
we have plenty of cinders on our grounds
within easy haul which we Will donate free to
the city III they will haul them and widen this
street street TO make re good roadway. II the City
donate in addition large quantity OF crushed
stone and cinders for use on other city streets
Trusting this proposal will receive your
Very truly yours.
