Their step in the proceedings, looking
toward the paving. which the coun-
ell began at its last meeting, two
weeks ago, and hurried through rOu-
tine channels to the point Of calling
for bids
j. A. Laughlin Of Trinidad, Colo,
whose proposal for the paving Of West
Central was accepted by the council
several weeks ago, is here. He was
understood to have filed another bid
under the new proceedings. Mr..
Laughlln would not enter into con
tract upon his former bid because Of
his inability to dispose Of certifi-
Gates of assessment on account OF de-
fects in the original petition.
The proceedings begun two weeks
ago were based upon a second petit
ton which is free of the defects in the
first which made it impossible for the
contractor to place the certificates.
The council, while carrying the new
proceedings forward rapidly, was re-
ligiously observant of its procedure
and believes that the contractor,
whose bid is lowest, will not expert
ence the same difficulty that Mr..
Laughlin has experienced.
The contract will not be formally
entered into for a month, or more
after the acceptance of the proposal,
so actual paving probably will not be
begun until spring. However, some
preparatory work may be done before
that time. City Engineer Edmond
Ross said at the last meeting of the
council that il would be advantageous
to do the storm sewer work some time
before the paving is begun.
