EVERYBODY FOR THE
BRIDGE.
In another column in this issue
are printed copies of the two
amendments otferedto the bridge
bill and accepted. one of which
. defines more clearly the park fea-
ture; the other provides for a
state appropriation of one~iourth
of the cost of construction, or an
amount not to exceed the sum of
350.000.
In the consideration of this bill.
the citizens of The Norwalks
should reflect on Section 11. pro-
, viding for the state appropriation
It is one of the great features
of the bill. Were Norwalk to de-
feat this measure at the polls,
what General Assembly would
pass another bill providing for a
state appropriation of $50,000?
The opportunity is not only a
gilt edge one. but it is pure gold.
Is the town to sacrifice it?
There seems to be a misunder-
standing on the part of many as
to what the park feature of this
bill really is. Others cannot un-
derstand why the park feature is
needed in order that the bridge
may be cleared of the objection-
able buildings. which constitute
at the present time the eyesore
which all wish to eliminate.
As to the former. the aim of the
bridge committee is. firstly. to
buy every inch of the lands set
aside by the bill before the great
improvement which will follow
shall have enhanced the value of
, that and surrounding properties
to such an extent that the selling
price shall become prohibitive.
Having secured the land. the de—
velopment will follow in the not.
utal course oi events.
As to the necessity of the park
feature in regard to the removal
of the buildings. Should this ice“
ture be eliminated. and should it
become necessary for the bridge
committee to resort to condgmna—
tion proceedings, only as many
feet as will be required in the ac~
tual construction of the bridge
could be condemned.
That is. should this take twenty
‘ feet from the front of a building
, pend remit-ct remained. then ten
‘ feit oi the building could be left
standing. should the owner feel
so inclined, thereby leaving even
. a more damaging eyesore to mar
the appearance oi" the place than
_, ‘hei‘ora
' Not onlyvthat. but if it develop—
ed that necessity demanded that
the whole building be removed
(' _ by condemnation proceedings. the
owner having been left sufficient
property in the rear of his build
