THE CROSS TOWN DRIVE.
petition signed by a large number
Ct business men and tax payers asking
that a, cross town drive be constructed
On Sixteenth street, extending east and
west, was read, but on recOmmen alton
Of the city engineer the work of max
ing this drive was deferred for the
present with the understanding that it
be taken up again when conditions
for building it are favorable.
The petitioners said that inasmuch
S PalafoX street from Blount street
north to the city limits is TO be paved,
and there will be necessarily a COnSid-
cradle amount of excavation prepara-
tory to the paving, they asked the com
missioners to use this dirt in harden
ing Sixteenth Cor Sierra) street as far
us this material will reach.
The petitioners also said there is no
town drive, or hard street, in the
northern part OF the city, and as Six
teenth street is midway between Con
Zalez street ana the city limits. and as
Sixteenth street would give a direct
drive from Bayou TeXar to the north
ern gate Of KupfTian's park, and as
Twelfth avenue is paved as far north
as Sixteenth street, they believed this
to DC the logical street for a cross
town drive.
LACK OF MATERIAL.
The commissioners deferred action
in the matter for the present when the
following communication from City
Engineer Rommell was read
Il have carefully gone over the
proposition of utilizing the waste ma
terial from Palafox, street between
Blount street and the city limits, on
1850 cubic yards of material eXcaVated
oil this street, of which $50 cubic yards
will be needed to make the fiji between
Eighteenth and Ninthteenth streets.
This will leave 1900 cubic yards avail
able for ether purposes. To make a
fiji of two feet on Sierra street between
PalafoX and Tarragona streets will re-
quire 1850 cubic yards, leaving a
shortage of $50 cubic yards Any fill
less than two feet would not improve
the conditions on this street wha tso-
ever. I would, therefore, respectfully
recommend that this surplus material
be used for some other purpose"
