PROPERTY OWNERS OPPOSE
PAVING CENTRAL IN 1922
Out of 20 Lots in Proposed Project, 49, Favor
Temporary Repairs: Sam Stephenson Alone
Advocates New Paving Now.

Strong opposition to the plans for
repaving Central avenue, from Park
drive to Sixth street, at least for this
year, was expressed Wednesday night
by majority of Central avenue prop
erty owners, who met with members of
the public improvement committee and
Mayor r. M. Arour in the council cham
ber The opposition was crystallized
in .the form of a petition signed by
owners or agents of 4S12 lots out of
the 20 lots involved in the proposed
project.
Only one of the property owners in
attendance at the session spoke in favor
of the proposed improvements. Sam
Stephenson, president of the First Ma
tional bank, was of the opinion that
as possible. Taking the view that
conditions are showing marked improve
ment. Mr.. Stephenson said the bust
ness men of Central avenue would be
too busy next year to think about i'm
provement projects. Other property
owners, opposing the paving plans,
were unanimous in the belief that busi-
ness conditions are not such this year
that they can assume any additional
expenses.
Prefer Making Repairs
After City Engineer NJ. Z. Morris had
estimated that it would require be-
tween 5000 and $500 this year to re
pair any arising defects in the present
pavement. the property owners reached
the conclusion that it would be wiser
to bear this expense and let the paving
plans rest in allegiance until more favor
able times arrive. 1t was the sentiment
of all of the speakers that the avenue
was in need of resurfacing and that
they would be willing to contribute to
the expense of laying a substantial type
of pavement later on. Preference of
material was in favor of brick.
Mayor Armour spoke of the neces-
sity Of improving the avenue. Speak
ing of that thoroughfare as the front
yard of the city. he asserted that it
should stand as model street He
suggested the possibility Of creating a
special improvement district for main

tenance purposes although the NUM-
cipal statutes carry no provision for
the formation of such a district. Mr..
Armour said the street fund Was un-
able to bear any further maintenance
expense, as it is now overburdened
5000 a Lot for Asphalt
A number of the property owners
held to the opinion that the block pave
ment could be treated in such way
that it's life would be prolonged several
years but City Engineer Morris told
them that temporary improvements
would be unsatisfactory and would en-
tail an expense that would go a long
way towards the cost of a permanent
pavement. To resurface the avenue
with sheet asphalt. he said, would cost
$500 lot. Turning the blocks over
would be equally as expensive, accord
ing to Mr.. Morris. because the blocks
would need to be cleaned, repainted and
the street base given a new sand
cushion.
The big percentage Of the wood
blocks, it was brought out, have lost
their enduring qualities because Of the
fact that the creosote curing has been
removed by hot winds and the influ-
ence of other elements. Temporary
egress of water under the pavement
and the street department would be
confronted with the problem Of buckling
and bulging blocks despite the atten-
ton, it was said.
Brick Most Expensive
City Engineer Morris gave estimates
of the expense involved in the repaving
of the avenue in respect to three types
of pavement Brick would cost S1,51O
lot, and bitulithic with concrete gut
ters would cost $760 lot. He per-
sonally favored brick pavement. The
estimates, Mr.. Morris said. covered
the expense of improving the drainage
system, which is at present slow and
faulty in many other respects. Cen
trail avenue has no adequate system of
drainage, according to Mr.. Morris, and
this is in a measure responsible for
the present condition of the pavement
