PROCEEDINGS

/ plan for the ultimate develop
ment of the width of North Line
Road should be established. Though
funds are not available to this
Board for the immediate acquisi-
ton of the necessary property and
the construction Of the grade sep
aration at the railroads, we believe
that it would be highly desirable
that some co-ordinated program be-
tween this Board and your City
Plan Commission be set up to eSta-
bliSh a building line setback along
this road in order to control the
development and facilitate the &C.
complishment Of the entire plan
With the cooperation of your
building department in the issuance
of building permits, all improve
ments should be made in accord
ance with this established width.
This Board, therefore, recon-
mends that your Honorable Body
adopt a resolution establishing such
a setback line as laid out by your
Planning Department.
We would be pleased to cooper
ate in any way possible.
Yours very truly,
Board of Wayne County
Road Commissioners

To the Honorable
Mayor and City Council
City of Wyandotte
Gentlemen:
To make our Court Library COM
plete set of Michigan Reports
is a necessity. Practically every
Municipal Court in Wayne County
has a set of these books in their
library The Down River Bar Assoc
iation has advised this Court that
they are much in accord. We should
acquire such a set Of books to make
our Municipal Court complete.
Thanking you in advance for your
kind consideration.

Honorable Mayor and Council
City of Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
The Recreation Commission, at its
meeting on October 3Oth, directed
me to write request for the office
which is to be vacated by Mr.. A. A
Payette, Veterans Affairs.
The Commission feels that the
Recreation Department Office needs
to be centrally located because of
the many participants of different
recreation activities having to at
tend meetings would otherwise use
buses and other means Of trans
portation to get to the meetings
If the office was moved elsewhere.
Because of the crowded condition
of the Recreation Department in
its present location we hope that
your Honorable Body will see your
way clear to grant us permission to
use this office.
Respectfully yours.
Benjamin F. Yack,
Recreation Director
Referred to Council.

Subject: Hockey Rink
Gentlemen:
I have been instructed by the
Recreation Commission to tell you
of the progress made on the Hockey
Rink for this winter. The initial
proposal Of locating this rink at
Pulaski Park wasn't satisfactory
after finding the terrain not level
enough.
Mr.. Solo, Superintendent Of Parks
recommended we use Bishop Park
Tennis Courts for a hockey rink
The overall size being 240x110 feet
which is more than ample, as a
regulation rink requires but 200X
IS feet. Pulaski Park Tennis Courts
to be used for ice skating which will
take care of he youngsters in that
section of town.
After inquiring about the feasibil-
ity of using tennis courts for ice
skating, F. W. Liddle, City Engineer
and I visited Dearborn on Tuesday
November 13th. Mr.. Shubert. Sup
crintendent of Recreation of Dear
born, stated his city has been using
tennis courts for ice skating for
years. To operate skating rink on
tennis courts, a curb Is constructed
all the way around the rink on the
ouside and 1t is bevelled so as not
to interfere with tennis play in the
summer
It is the wish Of the Recreation
Commission to have both Pulaski
and Bishop Park Tennis Courts
curbed as in years to come it will
