The West direct layout was the
first matter taken up. Joseph silli-
man said he had building plans ottt
for property at the easterly end and
a elicfoot building line would later-
fere. He did not. object to five feet.
Herbert A. Mathewson asked that a
thirty-foot litre be fixed for West
street. westerly from John ll. Knanp‘s
property. Mr. Mathewson called at.
tontion to the property in question as
an income payer to the city and point.-
ed oitt that the assessment In that
neiahborhood is more than twice as
much as on any other wholly residen-
tial property In the city with the eit—
coptlon of West nveuuc. He believed
that the property owners should be
protected and believed that it will be
to. the city‘s interest to continue the
conditions that exist there. ills prop-

for the conditions that exist in West

Itwentyeilvo feet.
; Andrew J. Thompson said he had
. lived on the hill for more than forty
'sevcn years and in the old days it
was a crooked country road. Mr.
’I‘boropeon gave an interesting historo
lcal sketch of the development. of the
street to its present condition. street
.lihcs. sidewalks. etc. lie Illtured that
“can than a forty-foot litre would dain-
iaao lrls property adjoining the filly
property at West and Clay streets.
which it is proposed to cut up into
building lots.
Isaac bl, Jennings. who asked at the
last meeting for not less titan a titirty
loot liuc. reiterated lltc request. and
added that. ire did not think it should
be ices than forty feet. the house is

purchased property adjoining his to
protect the neighborhood and lrad only
sold it with runny restrictions. That
had been the spirit right along on
the bill. be said. Mr. Jennings irr-
sisted that his interest was not a sell
ilsh one, btrt is for the best interest or
the city. He thought the line should
.n0l be less than thirty feet.
Frederick M. Whitehead expressed
surprise that several who preceded
him had spoken as they had. lie alk-
cd for a tu'ehtydlve-foot line. 'l‘hc
houses contemplated are to be ulcc
ones and a credit. to the city.
it. A. Mathewsoa called attention
to the factihtti it is not proposed to
prohibit building back of the thirty
foot litre.
fienoral Russell Frost said he did

press anyone as being very practical
it is a lovely thing to have an nes-
thetlc view furnished at someonc
clse's expense. be continued. but hard
iy a fair proposition. The residents
had an opportunity to secure the prop»
crty at a reasonable figure. but had
not accepted it. Tire attitude of thc
objecting residents is anything but
patriotic. in his opinion. lie could see
nothing patriotic in robbing a property
owner of forty feet. He bclievcd tin-
property as a whole will be worth
urore and the appearance of the neigh-
borhood improved by building good
looking houses at (‘lay and West
streets.
ii. A. Muthevfson replied to (ten
oral Frost. lie said that despite. the
sncering (if tieneral Frost against the
aesthetic side of the case. it is an
important consideration and had tis-
ured in the creation of the values that
exist in the neighbor-limit. lie mains
island that General lt‘rost had only
stat half of the case. For instance.
Mr. athowson pnlfttcd out that in»
himself would be attained by a build-
line of thirty feet so much as anybody
in case his house should beiburned.
Then he could not build beyond the
thirty-foot line. in reference to what
the residents of West street hat-e
done for the Ely property. Mr. Mattr-
ewson maintains that the character
of the surroundiuss have increased the
value of ii. to more than $5.000 an acre.

lie objected to putting the my prop-
erty in the tax list for yum. for 810.-
000 as farm property. He mentioned
a proposition of a few years ago. made
by residents to lease the property for
a park on account of the condition of
‘ the property. Mr. Jennings had an
dorltood that about 820.000 was wont-
pd for the property. During his re-
marks he offered 012.600 f ind prop-
