Calexico News

CALEXICO, June 30.--Last night s
meeting between the chamber of com
merce and Jasper farm center was well
attended and resulted in a much better
understanding between all parties con
eerned. Deputy District Attorney Scott
explained the law as he understood it
from looking over the situation in Los
Angeles and Orange counties where
there are several hundred road districts.
Most of the roads in that section are
built under the road district improve
ment act.
1t was Mr.. Scott s opinion, gained by
interviews with leading attorneys of
Southern California, that Calexico
could lie brought into the road district.
There is only. one other city in Southern
California, Brea in Orange county, that
IS included in a road district. IL was
also ! iG opinion that CaleXico could nut
be brought into the district on the
Mount Signal side rs the paving runs
OFT two miles from town ia that direc
t.on.
Mr.. Watson, the county road engi
neer, told of advantages of the roads
and estimated costs as they would be
apportioned to Calexico aud the coun
sry districts. CaleXicO would have 10
bear approximately one tliFd the cost
Of building the road which he estimated
at $4,000. If the payments were
spread over n period of 20 years the
sptal cost, including interest would be
1878 600. The country district wOnld
include about $4,000 acres and the total
cost TO these lands would be about $li
per acre.
Discussion brought ont the fact that
Jasper people object 10 the road com
iug into CsleXicO, wanting IL To Join
he highway three miles north OF the
boundary. If CaleXieo wanted the
road, they wanted Jasper district left
out aud the road built east along the
boundary four miles and then north 10
tie paved section Of the Sand Hills
road This would leave their district
free 10 build their own road as they
saw fit.
