First Selectman lohn Devine
Believes in Having Substan-
tial Bridges, and Favors Ile-
building ot Modern Structure
Over Harbor at Washington
Street
I
First Selectman John Ilcvitie stands
ready to make the Town of Norwalk a
present of all the stone, that would
,be required to build a new Washington
‘ street bridge. Mr. Devlne is firmly cott-
yinced that there should be a new
bridge at this point and believes that
the interest on the money that. would
be required to construct a modern
structure would no more than balance
Ihe.cost of maintaining the present
Did structure. .
Mr. Devine has a quarry in Fort
Btreet, East Norwulk, which he be-
lleves would furnish all the, stone that
Would be necessary. Mr. Devine has,
.wlthlng the past few years, sold $1,000
.worth of stone to the New York, New
Haven and Hartford linilroud Com-
pany, front this little quarry.
He is a believer in substantial bridg.
es and thinks that the sooner the
Washington street bridge is replaced
with a modern structure the better. In
his opinion, it' would be good policy.
should the town not desire to btilld
a whole new structure at once. to
start in and build the little each year.
Something looking to this cud has
been going on for some time. as the
Selectmen has been filling ins under-
neath the wooden structure on the
East Side. This will all be useful in
the event of a new bridge.
Just now the board of selectmen are
wrestling with the problem of secur-
Ing a power mechanism to operate
the draw.
Later they will submit the. result of
their efforts before a future town
meeting, as directed by the. last otte. it
was specified in the vote of the recent
town meeting, that the selecttnen. in
securing plans for power on_the draw.
figure on a plant that. would serve
equally well on a bridge to be built in
the future, as on the present bridge.
A few days ago an expert front at
Berlin concern was in consultation
with the selectmcn over the feasibility
of building an electrical power plant.
Owing to the condition of the bridge
.which has been badly worn down on
one side by heavy trolley cars, the sc-
lectmeu are In somewhat of a quundry
but will present the conditions, just
as they are to the town meeting. It
will then be tip to the latter to decide
what will be done.
