SLIP THE BUCK
TO SUCCESSORS

Supported by IN opinion by Deputy
City and County Attorney P. L. Weay-
er the present board Of supervisors
has decided that II win not tackle the
street improvement proposal for Ma
noa valley under the frontage tax plan.
At the boards last meeting Il agreed
to defer indefinitely the Manoa i'm
provements, leaving the problem for
the incoming board next January. The
latter is pledged to the frontage tax
system.
Pacheco stated at the board meet.
ing that about one-sixth of the prop
erty In that district coming under as
sessment for frontage tax belongs to
the territory. Viewers opinion is
that government property cannot be
assessed. This, Pacneco said, means
that the county would have to stand
the assessment OF this one-sixth for
improvements estimated to cost. in the
entire district, about $275 900 He said
the county could not afford IT. Les
ter Petrie, chairman OF the road com.
mittee, agreed with him, adding that
inasmuch as the next board is pledg-
ed to the frontage tax system 1t should
be given the privilege OF inaugurating
and testing the innovation
1t also looks now as though the
present board does not intend to finish
its improvement on Kaiakaua avenue,
the mauka side of which Is to be re.
paved under an $1,000 appropriation
recently set. aside by the supervisors.
Petrie informed the board that En-
gineer w. A.. Wall had been instructed
to proceed no further on that Job I'M
til the property-owners along that thor
oughfare have placed their curbs. The
grading has been practically finished
by the city, he said, and the property.
owners should be given the usual so
days time to do the. work themselves.
after which the city could go ahead
and lay the curbing, assessing the cost
against the owners But he suggested
they should be taught lesson-that Il
they dent lay the curbing in that pc.
Rod the entire work be held up until
they do their share. Thus It appears
doubtful whether the boards final
BIT of Highway Improvement win ever
be completed by the present body. II
may be left over for the incoming
board to finish.
