ARLINGTON FIXES
BUILDING DEPOSIT
SIS Fee Required on All
Commercial and Industrial
Structures.
BY a Stan Correspondent of Tn. star.


ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Va, May 30.-All persons de-
string to construct any commercial or
industrial building will in the future be
required to post SIS deposit with the
county engineer when making applica-
ton for permit, 1t was decided yes
terday at the meeting Of the board OF
county supervisors.
The decision to require the deposit
was made as a result of the public
hearing scheduled for next Monday on
the application of william p. Ames to
construct spur track on Lambden ter
race, Rosslyn. 1t was decided by the
coming commission that 1t would be
necessary to advertise the hearing in
the county papers. but the commission
was unable to decide who should pay for
the advertising. County Directing En-
gineer c. L. Kinnier brought the mat
ter before the board and they unani-
mously decided that the fee should be
paid by the applicant.
Change I'm Right Of Way.
Acting on the recommendation Of
Kinnier and C. W. Fitch, the board au-
thorized a change in the right of way
of Rucker avenue, in Lyon Village, to
eliminate the sharp curve at the inter-
a direct connection with Wilson Boule-
ward. Rucker avenue is to be widened
and repaved by the county and will pro-
vide a direct connection from the Lee
Highway to the new Arlington Memorial
Bridge by connecting with the proposed
Lee Boulevard.
Supervisor B. M. Hedrick, Common
wealths Attorney William c. Cloth and
Kinnier were instructed to work out
some plan for issuance of building per-
mits. 1t was suggested that a charge
of SO be made for each permit, the
cost to cover an investigation by the
engineers Office to see that the build
ingS are properly located. This would
permit the engineers office to issue a
certificate of location to take the place
Of surveys made by companies placing
loans. The matter Is to be discussed
with the coming commission.
Compensation Commission.
A special compensation commission,
consisting of j. E. Spaulding, Frank
Upman, A. H. Richards, c. T. Jesse and
L. w. Douglas, was appointed to fix the
amount OF damages to be paid to the
Payne estate for the extension Of Will
son boulevard down Picketts Hill.
Bids were opened for the widening
and repaving of Mount Vernon avenue
and for the purchase of two new 6O0-
gallon fire engines. In order that the
bids might be carefully studied, the
board decided to delay the awarding OF
the contracts until next Wednesday, al
which time special meeting will be
held for that purpose.
