West criticis- (-d the method of assessing the pro» perty in the city, saying that the great trouble in South Norwalit was that the city was not getting as much for its money as it should." Mr. Luilin asked the doctor if it were not a fact that the iaylng‘ot a 12 iniii tnx'would be suicidal tor the city. . Councilman Wost retorteu. saying that it the city got what it should, an eight mill tax would raise $100,000. He said that the criticism to be merited was that the city was doing its business backward; not that any one of the departments was Wasting its money, but’ because of what could not be done ' Mayor Robert M. Wolte took the ' chat 1‘. The matter or a public dock-came . up and Councilman West stated that bhecall and need for a public dock was well-known and appreciated by the city as a whole. f Alfred Brown. street'commissionar, stated that a public dock was needed. He said that a barge or two of stone ' ’- could not be unloaded and distributed quickly and done right. The day of water binder for roads was passed. It the city could not have a place where its stone could be unloaded and stow. ed away, it could be used at the dis‘ cretion and convenience of the city. Mayor Wolfe stated that there was no doubt but what the city ‘bonid have .‘ secured coat'at a cheaper rate than it ' is now secured had it possessed a public dock. Under the present con- ditions, the coal could not be brought. into the city. Mr, Thcriauit stated that t the city had a public dock her today. coal could be delivered at thehhomes oi the consumers for $6.50 a ton. This he claimed, accounted for the opposition to the public docks. ‘tlf the matter were put to a vote or the city, gentlemen, 90 per cent of the electors would vote for it," said Mr. Theriauit. Mr. McMahon called attention to the fact that there was suttlcient stone to be crushed within the city limits that could be secured at a. much lower iilgure than is now demanded by trap- rock companies. Ex-‘Mayor William F. Tammany ap- peared in the interests or John Mc- Millan. owner of Judah island. Ho ‘ called attention to the fact that the lower end of Quintard avenue had her- rr been improved, and that Mr. MC. Mullen owns considerable property thereon. He desires that that portion of Quintnrd avenue not improved down to Lowndes avenue be laid out and worked.
