In regard to Corunna Avenue Sewer petition
There are ten benefits on the south side of
street.
There are eight benefits on the north side of
street.
There are five signers on south side and one
signcr on The north side. The condition on
the south side Of street Is exceptionally bad AS
the lots are so shallow on account of the rail.
n at tha
back door of the houses. The percentage of
stgners Ii not very high owing to vacant pro-
perry on north SIDE but nearly all have signed
that have houses built aud therefore know the
real conditton of tnings. The sewer would not
DO an expensive one.

To the Honorable Board Of Public Works,
Gentlemen:
In regard TO sewer proposed on South Wash
tngton street please refer TO plans OF same
going down Monroe sire ct instead OF carrying
back TO Stewart. This Is by far the most
practical way as the other way car RIGS the
water back and needlessly uses up fall
IN ooipg so. Some of this fall Is needed by the
time Milwaukee street Is reached. 1 would
advise not deviating from original plans OF e.
Il. Jos!in as outlined.
