CITY COUNCIL NOTES

was held Monday evening. lsselmann
was the only absentee.
The big business was the Twenty
first street bridge project. 1t was de-
bated from all angles. The only objec-
ton raised was to the probable cost.
1t was stated that the 500 Line
is required to build the portion of the
viaduct crossing its right of way, to
cost probably $4,000 and that the
High Falls company have promised in
writing to donate $1,000 toward the
costs as consideration for the city's
abandoning its original intention to
have half of the new high leading
to the bridge on it's premises. The
exact question was whether the city
should accept the award of $1,000
made by commissioners in the condem-
nation proceedings for the land leading
to the bridge on both sides of the
river. If this was accepted the die
would be cast. When it came to a
vote the result was ayes IL, noes /,
only Holly voting in the negative. This
action settled the bridge question but
the viaduct approach to it on the north
side was not passed on.
The clerk was instructed to adver-
tse for bids for 100000 of bridge
bonds authorized some time ago.
The city paid for the bridge land
condemnation, $2S4.95 being S244.l5
for the three commissioners at $40 per
day and $40.S0 for witness fees.
The $1,000 allowed to the land own
ers was deposited with the court Tues
day, the haste probably being due to a
desire to let the contractor get back to
his work.
