PLAN EXTENSIVE
PAVING PROGRAM
Project as Outlined by Commissioner
Hinrichs included Two Different
Sections of the City.

| According to an announcement
made by Commissioner George Hin
richs yesterday afternoon Pensacola is
to have a rather extensive paving pro-
gram carried out in the near future
Work is progressing on paving pro-
bects in two different sections of the
city where contracts for about eigh-
lteen BLOCKS have already been let. and
from all indications the work viii be
completed in record time.
The program contemplated as out
lined to a Journal representative by
| the commissioner yesterday afternoon
IS as follows: On Zarragossa street,
west from Baylen to Deyilliers; De-
Villiers from Zarragossa to govern
ment; Reus from Zarra gossa to Bel
mont; Barcelona from Zarragossa to
Government Chase from Barcelona to
Coyle; DeVilliers from Jackson to
Gonzalez; Gonzalez from Deyilliers
to Reus; Reus from Government to
Lee; Lee from Reus to Palafox, thus
completing the paving OF all streets
on the block which the new P. K.
Yonge school is located.
The, other work contemplated ac-
cording to Mr.. Hinrichs is Lloyd street
from Reus to Palafox; Brainard from
Reus to Barcelona; Barcelona from
Brainard to Gonzalez, and on Inten-
dencia from Tarragona to Alcaniz
street. Mr.. Hinrichs said that the
the property owners on the last named
block were willing to pay their part
OF the paving In cash, and not in in
stallments as is the usual case, in or
der to get the work done.
Commissioner Hinrichs also an
nounced that water mains and sew
ers would be laid on the streets
named in the program where they are
not already provided. The city is now
placing sewerage system on the
streets included in the paving pro-
5ect on West Hill In order not to hin
der Contractor Gerkens in contem-
plating the work in the specified time.
The .city's part of the paving now
in the course of construction will
amount to something like S25, 900, or
,one-third of the total cost; the re-
naming two-thirds is paid by the
property owners to be used for the
purpose OF paving streets only. This
means that it will be possible at the
present to lay s150.0o0 worth of con-
crete paving. The number of blocks
that can be paved for this amount viii,
of course. be dependent upon the rise
or fall in the cost OF material
