is being done.
The meetinngns called to 0111121 by
Mayol William F. Tammany and a
full «board was in attendance. in the
absence of City Clerk John J. Cluneo,
the reading pf the minutes was dis-
ricnaea with and Mayor Tammany dc»
clared open the hearing on the ap-
plication of the Connecticut Company
to lay a truck across Washington
street. at right angles with the track
already laid thereon and to install
11 Y from Monroe street into South
Main street, running southerly!
h]. C. Webster, of New Haven, ex-
plained what was-desired by the
company, and Superintendent Potter
took up the thread or the argument.
submitting a map of the proposed
changes and explaining that the atl-'
ditionnl tl'ackagc would facilitate op
oration of the service and would rc-
lleve the congestion in South Main-
street. The installation of the new
track in Washington street would ct-
fect a loop for East. avenue care. He
also stated that, the installation of
his track would eliminate the neces-
sity of the double track in Railroad
avenue.
Councilman Miller remarked that
this track would make a mess of rails
under the bridge, but Mr. Potter
quickly retaliated, saying that he did
not think so, as the track would el~
iminate the congestion in South Matti
street anti so tar as complications go,
he called the Attention of the coun-
cilman to the fact that there was al-
ready a track under the bridge.
Cohncilmun Hoyt asked if the com-
pany would be willing to take. out
the South Main street switch it the
council litranted their concessions.
Superintendent Potter replied
promptly that they would not. On
question of Councilman Miller, Stip-
erlntendent Potter explained the de-
sires and needs of the Y track in
Monroe and South Main streets, say-
ing that while the present needs of
the company did not require it. they
wished to have it installed for future
use, hoping and believing that trai-
ilc conditions in the near future
would be such that the additional
track there would be not only a con-
venience lint a necessity. in explain-
ing why it was desired at this time,
the speaker stated that it was con.
sldored expedient and good judgment
on the part of the/company and mu-
nicipality to do this extra construc-

company would be willing to make

privileges.

the company did not believe that in
making those applications they were

Dear Slrz-w—
Now that‘ work on our street
pavements is about. to begin it seems
to me that anyone having a driveway
leading into streets to be paved could
have a permanent pavement laid in
said drivewaynwhlle the city‘s work is
going on cheaper than at any other
time and thinking that if this matter
was brought to the public‘s attention
a great'inany would avail themselves
of the opportunity, [ send this letter
to you.
I have spoken to Mr. McElroy re
gardlng the prices and'havefihia as.
suranca that he will do any of these
driveways for the same price as charge
ed the city for the streets, provided
always that ltgis done at the same
time the city‘afavork is done in front
of said driveway. '
l have brought the matter before
the executors of 11.1; ”Nelson Taylor
estate with regard to a permanent
pavement tor Steamboat Place which
is, it seems to me. one of the worst
entrances to our city.

Perhaps if a committee of the Coun-
cit took this matter up at once a. de-
cision could he arrived at in time to
have the work done in conjunction
with the city's work if it is favorably
decided upon. It has been decided
to start on Water street first.
Very truly yours.

Dear Sir:- ,
The report submitted you regarding

reierred back to me for investigation.
Since this time I have taken both in»

change my former total of 229 trees.

SAMUEL W. HOY'I‘, JR.,
«City Engineer.
Councilman Miller moved and it
was voted to accept the report of the
engineer,
The application of the Connecticut
company for additional trackage was
revived and Councilman Miller moved
that the corporation counsel he in~
structed to draw up a resolution de-
nying the application of the Connec~
ticnt- Company to lay a track at right
angles with the present trhck across
Washington street, and the Monroe
street Y. running southerly into South
Main street. ‘
Councilman Mather opposed the mo-
tioa, saying that he believed that it
the company would agree to eliminate
the South Main street switch their
other requests should be granted. He
recommended that. the councilman
should consider the matter carefully,
believing that the changes proposed
would effect a benefit for the phonic
and that some lay-out should be great-
ed.
Councilman Field contended that
frogs in general were dangerous. but
the doorway frog. such as it was
proposed L to install in Washington
street, was the most dangerous of all.
He contended that additional tracks
were not necessary at the present
time and that the conditions under
the bridge Were dangerous at present
M
without extra trackage.
i Councilman Miller stated that the
, ”more he heard of applications from
are,greatly interested and Mr. Harlani
.the trolley company the more he was
convinced that they want all they can
get for their own benefit. He said
that it appeared to him as though it
was the desire or the company to elim-
road avenue no as to relieve the com-
pany of the additional cost for pav-
ing that highway, The elimination of
one of the tracks in Railroad avenue
would be detrimental to the public for
the reason that when extra care are
needed at this end of ”the line the
company must store them somewhere
and if it in not in Railroad avenue it
will be on the main streets.
