TAXPAYERS HALT
STREET PROJECTS
Limit Street Widening and
Opening of Ridge Street
is Blocked.
MUCH DISSATISFACTION

Property owners interested in the
widening of Limit street and the open
ing of North Ridge street, focked to
the meeting of the city council on
Monday evening and effectually blocked
these two projects by vigorously filing
their protests against the assessments
made by the commission in both cases.
After spirited debate, Joined in by
both taxpayers and aldermen, the
Limit street project was sent to the
wastebasket while the opening Of Ridge
street was referred to a committee
composed of two aldermen of the fifth
ward to attempt to bring about peace
able solution.
Because of the fact that delay in
the opening of Ridge street will entail
more expense, if it is ever opened, an
alleged mistakes in the assessments
there and to continue with the plan.
Show Weakness of Plan.
The incidents illustrated the futility
of the plan of naming commission to
establish benefits and damages. Sew
eral weeks ago the council acted on a
petition of many property holders on
each of the streets and named the COM
| mission. AS soon as its work was done
and the property holders learned the
cost of the measure, they Topped over
by the score to the other side and are
now urging that it be halted.
Couneilmen were willing to admit
hat 10 he Jsc
crepancies in the schedule of benefits
and damages made out by the commits
sion, but they deplored the fact that
the several hundred dollars which il
had cost would now be wasted.
at has been ever thus" declared one
| alderman; "they scramble for these
improvements until they find that they
touch their pocketbooks- it's an
other story"
Launch New Method.
Alderman Anderson then made a mo,
ton that in the future, before any
commission was appointed, to assess
benefits and damages in similar pro
ject, the city engineer should assess
the property and give the taxpayers ar
adequate estimate of the cost so that
they could decide definitely on the
matter before the city had gone to any
expense. The motion was adopted
unanim ously.
The Fourth avenue petition was re-
ferred to the aldermen of the ninth
ward for report at the next meeting
May Raise Assessments.
The discussion brought out an inter
esting situation. One of the persons
owning property which would have
been taken over in the carrying out Of
the project sent communication tC
the council asking that he be paid 81
a foot for the property. 1t is nov
assessed at $500. This aroused the
mayors ire.
"I'm going to the assessor and de
mand that he PVT this assessment
against this property on that tax roll,
| declared the mayor. "If this property
is worth that much, they can pay tai
on it, too. They've mixed up this med
icine and now they can take it. We've
| got another man who wants $500 FOL
property now assessed at $1,000; wei
let him pay taxes on the full amount
