HAS PLAN TO KEEP
SNOW CLEARED OFF
City Will Do Work for NOn-resi-
dent Property Owners
and Assess Cost

Commissioner Haarer will include
in his estimates an item for $500 for
cleaning snow or private walks next
winter. The commissioner has a plan
to force property owners to clear their
walks or pay the city for doing It,
The police department has had very
little success In attempting to en-
force the ordinance compelling prop
erty owners to keep their walks clean
during the winter months on pain OF
being complained against In the re-
corder's court. Last year the depart
ment made 500 complaints. and 1t was
learned that most OF the property own.
ers were non-residents, and, therefore,
outside the jurisdiction OF the court.
To compel non-residents, as we'll az
resident, owners to keep the snow OF
their walks in the future Commission
er Croul, Commissioner Haarer and
Corporation Counsel Lawson evolved
plan whereby the city can do the
work and assess the cost against the
AUDITING property, the same as Is done
under the obnoxious weed ordinance.
Corporation Counsel Atkinson is not
sure OF the legality OF the plan. but he
announced that he would be willing TO
go into court at any time and test 1t
out. The mayor and the commission
ers agreed that $500 would not be too
much to wager on the chance that the
city will be able to collect from the
delinquents.

Mayor Marx Is seriously consider
ing the operation OF a municipal bus
line on the West Grand-blvd., from
Grand River-ave. To the river front.
The matter was brought up in a
meeting OF west-side business men In
the mayors office, Wednesday after
noon, and 1t was tentatively approved
by Marx az a temporary substitute
for the proposed crosstown line on
the west side OF the city
The mayor promised TO give the
matter his immediate attention. The
city now operates one municipal bus
line across the Belle Isle bridge and
around the island. Mayor Marx will
ask the park commissioner to pre-
pare for him full report on the
earning capacity, mileage, cost OF up
keep, etc, OF the Belle Isle bus line.
Seven motor buses operated on
the Belle Isle bridge between the
approach on the Detroit side to the
casino showed a profit OF $4,000 for
the year ending July 1, 1912. The
buses are operated on a three-cent
fare basis. They seat 20 passengers
and have a maximum carrying capac.
ity OF SO each. The proposed boule-
ward route is four miles and IL motor
buses would give three-minute ser.
vice.
The mayor is enthusiastic over the
plan as step nearer municipal own.

Itionable right TO operate Transports

1t would be possible TO operate q mo-
