works will act at the meeting Aug. | 13. In this way it is hoped to have the report before the common coun- cil at the meeting on August Fl. Conlon's Plan Adopted Councilman F. L. Conlon, a mem- Der of the committee, proposed the plan which was tentatively adopted. He was formerly chairman of tho board of public works and has had vide experience in construction mat tcrs, and he pointed out the mad visibility of spending S4,350 on in stalllng Q Cobble stone bed in the stream. This item was in the orig inal plar of the public works de- partment but Chairman Dobson anC Engineers Moeller and Merriam agreed last night that it would be letter 10 spend the money on bridges. Sodding the slopes was also proposed by the department but Councilman Conlon said it would be better and cheaper to scatter hay swcepings and grass seed and cut the growth Wiht a scythe about twice a year than to go to the expense of caring for sodded turf. The purpose of grass or weeds on the slopes is to hold the dirt in place and it would De unwise to make too great an cX- penditure, he said.
 Open Up New Streets
 A bridge or BrooklaNn street would make possible the opening of the street through to Monroe street while one on Harding street would connect the two parts of the street which are separated by the brook. Part of the expense would be as- sessed against the property owners. The other bridges nave been in need of replacement for some time. All the proposed bridges will be of con- crete construction.
 Alderman Nair and Councilman Conlon pointed out that the proposed new plan, if carried out, will remedy conditions which have been caused by the overflow of the brook and will actually give the city twice as much in the way of improvements. as would have resulted from the original plan. The estimated cost of the entire program is between s25,- 900 and s30,000 and the money will be taken from the sewer construc- ton fund.
 Council to Inspect Stream
 The committee and the public works department representatives considered briefly and informally the possibility of having the plan adopt ed by the council without delay, as 1t is imperative, in their opinion, that the work be started before the fall. It possible that an inspection of the brook and an explanation of the pro- posed improvements on the site may be arranged, in order that the mem bers of the common council may have an opportunity of having first hand information before they are asked to vote on the plan.
