MAY ALTER PLAN
FOR STREET WORK
Council Will Consider Cost of a
Concrete Pavement

Members OF the Laurium village
street committee are considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of using concrete instead
of macadam for the IIecla street
pavement and while no definite step
has been taken i'm that direction, il il
known that several members of the
council favor permanent material.
The cost Of concrete, il is stated
would not greatly exceed that Of ma
cadam but il is the limited maintain
ance expense and limited cost of re-
pairs that brings il into favor.
From view point of economy il IS
argued that a concrete pavement is
permanent, that no expense is incurred
from time to time because of the sur
face wearing and that macadam is less
sanitary. The macadam pavement
costs from ninety cents upward a
square yard and an additional thirty
per cent, it is stated, would provide
for concrete. In this district where
crushed rock ~ easily obtainablc, the
cost even would be reduced.
The merits of other paving material
viii be argued at the next regular
meeting of the council and it is not
unlikely that at least two blocks on
