Referred to Council.

To The
Honorable Mayor and Council
City
Gentlemen:
We have an application for q
building permit for a new indie
terminate type of structure to be
placed on Lot 9. Block 25 better
described as west side Of VanA,-
styne between Mulberry and Walnut
and adjoining the hospital parking
lot.
This structure is intended for
warehouse and garage and may re-
quire the consideration of the pro-
posed coming or planning commits
sion - due to its location.
This type of construction should
possibly be determined as Type 5.
This being the case it would not
conform to Section 7O1 of the
building code. Said section pertains
to garages but could be erected for
warehouse subject to location on
the lot.
AS this is a new type Of con-
struction We await your opinion on
the project subject to the council
resolution of Sept. % 1915.
Respectfully submitted.

The Honorable Mayor and Council
Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
With reference to bids for police
cars opened at your meeting of jan
uary 2, 1916 and referred to the
writer. I beg to report as follows:
Even though the bid of the Super
ior Motor Sales for a net sum of
s3,146.35 was the only bid submit
ted, recommend its acceptance for
the following reasons:
a. Experience throughout the
country has demonstrated that
Ford cars are very satisfactory
for this type of work
b. The allowance of $4,000 on
the used cars is satisfactory.
c. The cost of repairs on the
old cars is increasing each month
d. The value Of the old cars
is depreciating very rapidly as
new cars become available.
would point out that one item
In the bid of the Superior Motor
Sales namely, tire tax $588 for each
car is not applicable to the City of
Wyandotte as the city is not liable
for any federal excise taxes.
The bid of the Superior Motor
Sales specified that if they cannot
make delivery within thirty days,
they reserve the right to reappraise
the four cars to be turned in when
delivery is made. would therefore
recommend that If the bid of the
Superior Motor Sales is accepted it
should be contingent on the ap-
praisal price of the old cars being
acceptable to your honorable body
In case the dealer exercises his op-
ton to reappraiSe the old cars:
Respectfully submitted,
Wilfred Kane,
Purchasing Agent
Relieved and placed on file.
Honorable Mayor and Council
Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
Kindly authorize the refund Of
$4,000 1915 City Tax to the owner
of North 90 of Lot IL and South
20 of Lot IL, Belmont Subdivision. y
The obave mentined amount is
that portion of tax on $1,000 Of as
sessed valuation which should have
been exempt because of military
service Of the owner.
Respectfully,
Edward w. Kane,
City Assessor
Referred to Council.
Councilmen Rouse and Benin
Building Code Revision
Gentlemen:
Herewith is another suggestion
and more detailed amendment tc
the Building Code:
1t is the writer's opinion that the
'revoking of permit clause would
create heater appearance; and the
limiting of area, with chimney anc
certain materials for fire prevention
and protection would certainly re.
duce the fire hazards.
For more detailed information
may suggest meeting - shortly
mention this particularly because
received request, this morning
concerning a used car lot office
and this item Will doubtless come
before the Council at its next meet.
