ON ID. p. w. ROAD FUND

The council committee on streets,
Monday morning, cut only $3.50 from
the general road fund estimates,
amounting to $4,S1S,6S7. The general
road fund budget as contained in the
published book of estimates, amounted
10 $4,076,6S7. Supplemental estimates
TO the amount of $4,000 were filed
with the council last week, and these
were approved by the committee.
Heretofore the committee has made
q thorough inspection or the streets
before passing on the estimates,
spending several days in the work
This year il was said the streets are
covered with ice and snow, and the
committee could not get good idea
of their condition. 1t was decided TO
have the council committee accom-
pany the committee from the board
of estimates later on when the esti-
majors get busy.
A total OF $535,901 was allowed for
sheet asphalt, repairing and resur-
facing. The sum OF 1851 ,377 was ask
ed for brick paving, but this was
changed slightly by the request OF the
aldermen to submit creosote block In
a half dozen instances. The sum of
$4,000 was approved for asphalt
block paving. and $S57.5S2 for creo-
sote wood block paving.
The item of $4,000 for paving
street intersections was cut to $72, 900
and the Item OF $1,000 for mainten-
ance OF a concrete mixing machine
wac cut to $3.50. These were the only
cuts made in the budget as submitted
by Commissioner Haarer.
