COUNCIL FAvORS DISTRICT PLAN
 OF STREET WORK
Officials Discuss Abandon ment of Present System
 of Levying Cost

Paving of Second Street between Main and Seward Streets and put ting in concrete sidewalks on Sew ard Street between Third and Fourth Streets were the chief mat ters discussed at the meeting last night in the municipal hall of the Juneau City Council. No action was taken with respect to either project.
 Change Is Contemplated
 A change in the policy of inn posing costs for street improve ments is under consideration by the authorities. The present sys- tenn of charging such costs to abut- ting property and the city's gen. eral fund will be abandoned, if Councilmen follow their inclina- ton, for the so-called improvement district, whereby neighboring prop erty as well as abutting property is assessed for improvements and the general fund is relieved of all obligation except for street inter sections.
 Ordinance Being Drafted
 A draft of an ordinance provid- ing for the improvement district plan is expected to be submitted by R. E. Robtrtson, Attorney for the city, at the next meeting of the Council and, pending disposal of the proposed legislation, action toward further street improvements of new character, will probably be held in abeyance.
 Authorization of the payment of customary bills was the only af- firmative action taken by the Coun- cil last night.
