North E St. Property Owners
Oppose Assessments.

Property owners on North E street
are highly incensed over the alleged
misinformation given them by the
board of public works in regard to the
amount which the city would pay on
the improvement of the street from
Tenth to Sixteenth streets. Manufac-
turers along the line of the improve
ment declare that a member of the
board of works informed them that
the city would pay $3.50, in addition
to the cost of the intersections of the
streets and alleys, which the law re-
quires the city to pay. The board of
works and city clerk contend that the
city agreed to pay only $3.50 includ-
ing the cost of the street and alley
intersections.
1t is said that meetings were held
in the offices of the manufacturing
concerns on North E street and that a
member of the board, in his zeal to
have the street paved with brick, mis-
informed the property owners. Now
that the time for the paying of the aC-
sessment is at hand complaints are
being registered and the property own
ers are indignant.
The city clerks minutes show that
the board of works. in public meeting
decided to pay $3.50 including the
cost of the intersections Some proper
ty owners have declared that the
clerks minutes are wrong, but the
clerk and board of works members
as we'll as others say that the minutes
are correct
