The ILLINOIS MUNICIPAL LEAGUE
John Coleman
PRESIDENT
at
this
The following
time.
To Illinois Mayors:
The urban population of Illinois is being grossly
discriminated against with reference to the use of the
gas tax revenues. It is largely a responsibility of
the mayors, and other elective officials of the cities,
villages and towns of Illinois to see that this unfair
situation is discontinued.
letter was presented to the City Council
December iSth, 13.
Due to the concentrated and helpful cooperation of
many municipal officials, the League's position with
reference to the use of the gas tax revenues has now be-
gun to gain supporters at t great rate. It is almost
a foregone conclusion that due to the hard work recently
put in by Mayor Greene of Aurora, who is chairman of the
League's Gas Tax Committee, and his assistants, there
will be amendments adopted by the nest General Assembly
which will be of great benefit to cities and villages.
With this in mind, the League would appreciate your
passing the enclosed resolution at your next council
or board meeting and sending copies thereof as indicated
in the resolution. I am also enclosing a statement of
some of the facts concerning the situation. it would
be helpful to the cause of the Cities and villages if
you would have your local newspaper publish the enclosed
press release as a news item.
Your assistance in both of these matters will be
greatly appreciated.
Very truly yours,
A. D. MCLARTY
Secretshry.

enue for street purposes during a period of increased demands
and rising costs for street services, and

and
Whereas, the expenditure of a portion of this money by lo-

The following letter was presented to the members of the
City Council as a matter of record in the question of the grade
seperation on routes 19 and 58 in Cumberland.
Mr. Frank T. Sheets
Chief Engineer
State Highway Department
Springfikld, Illinois.
January 29th, 1931.
he: Grade Separation
Routes 19- 58
Section 583-8-1
Dear Sir;
In accordance with your suggestion, made during the
Conference between yourself and designated representatives
of the City of Des Plaines, 1 am submitting inviriting,
accompanied by two drawings in duplicate, objections of
the City of Des Plaines to the construction proposed by
present plans for erection of grade separation between
routes 19 and 58, Section 583-S-1, and certain definate
recommendations to correct same.
The objections to persent plans, and the recommenda-
tions to be made, are submitted tn a spirit of co-operation
and constructive suggestion to the Highway Department.
justified by the civic interest of Des Plaines in a pro-
ject of this importance and magnitude. The highway Depart-
ment has always enjoyed the complete confidence and co-op-
eration of all municipal governments of the City of Des
Plaines, as exemplified in marked degree in every construc-
tion project carried on within city limits or adjacent
thereto.
The conference recently asked for was necessitated by
incission of this project on bide to be taken February 4th,
The urgency of the situation made an official call imper-
ative, and the representatives of the City of Des Plaines
appreciate the spirit of which we were received and the
consideration given our views.
We are relying explicitly on your statement that no
definite step should be taken by the Highway Department to
proceed with the construction of the project until our
claims were thorougkly investigated and a meeting between
all interested parties held on the ground.
I am enumerating below the objections as voiced by
the City Council of Des Plaines to the design presented
to them, all of which are readily seen on the drawing marked
1.
Recommendations for eliglinating objections are also
included herein, and clearly indicated on drawing marked
2.
Z. Pavement width on Northwest Highway provided by
existing plan indicates 44 foot pavement width in-
stead of 52 feet as existing.
291
2. Walk as planned has width of 6 feet instead of
10 feet as existing.
3. Falk tread 10 inches above gatter line instead
of 6 inches above gutter as existing.
4. Walk as planned completely blocks one 12i foot
traffic lane.
i. Structure as planned creates a definite bottle-
neck in an arterial highway and will prove, by
location of sidewalk, a dangerous traffic hazard
to all westerly bound traffic, as entire pavement
width of b22 feet is in daily use by metropolitan
traffic.
6. Proper width extending to northeast right-of-
way of Route 1S should be eonstracted originally,
rather than widening bridge on route 1S within a
few years to take care of increased traffic.
7. Contemplated structure proposes open cut with
steep side slopes on Golf Road.
8. Inconvenience and danger of resulting earth slides
as exemplified by subway under Northwestern and Soo
Line tracks.
S. Toe of planned open cut will encroach a great dis-
tance upon private property beyond limits of 120
foot Golf Road right-of-way.
10. The Matter of encroachment on private property
only mentioned oecause of the fact that the City has
the interest of citizen property owners to maintain
in the ignorance of the citizen affected.
11. Indicated length of bridge shows encroachment of
approximately 12 feet beyond limits of Golf noad
right-of-way.
12. Why rip out 12 feet of good pavement, b22 feet
wide, to accomodate this narrow structure?
13. Shorten span of structure and save pavement.
14. Also eliminate earth slope above lower level side-
walk and remove soarce of filth and earth aliding
into gutter and onto walk through frost action.
15. Suggest retaining wall between low level sidewalk
and lowered roadway to eliminate question of damage
to private property.
16. Retaining walls to extend sufficiently far north-
east and southwest to permit sidewalk along property
to be built at proper elevation to conform to
northwest Hdghway sidewalk grade and sidewalk grade
of railroad station.
17. Construction of this retaining wall to proper
height represents large saving in excavation, which
tends to offset cost thereof.
18. necessity of providing in design for restaining
wall extending between state and railroad struc-
tures to pro tec t low level sidewalk on Golf Road.
I Planned bridge length destroys sewer manholes
and catchbasins, and complicates continuation of
sewer and water service connections for first lot
adjacent to structure.
20. The City has definite rights on this street, ac-
quired through permit from the atate to construct
water Mains, sewer mains, sidewalk, ornamental
lights and pavement.
21. Provisions should be made on plans to take care
of necessary changes in water mains, sewer mains,
and electrical cables for ornamental lighting
system, all of which should be indicated on plan
so that contractors may submit definite bid rather
than doing worst at cost plus, a soarce of general
dissatisfaction to the Department.
22. All of this construction or utilities are the
Property of the 'ity of Des Plaines, although laid
on or in State right-of-way. This is a source of
great convenience to metropolitan traffic which
profits materially from their esistence.
23. any grade separations to be built in Chicago
metropolitan area, and many actually within Limits
of sizeable monicipalities.
24. Policy of Department should be sufficiently
elastic to permit of proper construction, designed
to suit both municipal situations and highway traffic
demands.
25. Present plan incicates Lack of vision for future
and complete aa3 cf gasp of situation.
26. Special attention should be paid to architectural
treatment of structure so that it may represent a
definite acheivement, not only utilitarian in pur-
pose, but artistic in appearance in appearance,
rather than the crude aspect of the proposed struc-
ture.
27. "Make no little plans."
28. The railroad and state should collaborate to in-
sure harmonious design anc, appearance of the two
structures. This need not result in serious addi-
tional expense to either party.
29. Poor architectural taste in stepping up design
of span beams. This applies to elevation only.
30. Poor design in different panel widths on elevation.
31. 10 architectural relationship between panelling
and rail design.
32. Stet1 legs or short columns on piers wretched in
appearance.
33. Impossible architectural taste shown by mixing
materials of construction; carry piers or abutment
through as concrete and save yearly painting and
maintenance on steel legs.
34. liuggest concrete column of octagonal form around
steel leg.
35. Designed structure represents in elevation a great
mass of concrete with spider -like steel support,
which does not appear balanced or substantial to
layman critic, or pleasing to engineering or archi-
tectural taste.
293
36. Monotony of spacing of balusters or spindles in
rail on longi- span makes one dizzy looking at it.
37. Vary monotony by shortening run through intro-
duction of secondary posts, also by introducing
blank spaces, as end posts and individual rail
spindles present splendid appearance.
38. Curved stone treatment, delicate rails and mold-
lings are possible in stone work, but being confined
to present media great improvement is possible by
balaac ng mass line and proportion and eliminating
monotony of un.ncxen surfaces.
3S. For best architectural appearance eliminate ex-
tremely short approach sp. :,ver sidewalk and use
one long span over entire Opening; or put an arch
elevation in approach span for walk with rusticated
xeystone motif. This gives great mass formation
from which bridge proper will appear to be swung.
40. Wtcy is it not possible to di.sign the structure
without using inter -riveted spray-brasing on central
and end piers which carry main beam on which road-
way 1 -beams rest, as this detracts materially from
the internal appearance of structure.
41. by all means place rail on all retaining walls,
both for the sake of safe.:y and for appearance.
42. include adequate electric lignting for roadway and
sidewalk under structure. kresent ornamental city
street lights adequate for houte .L level.
Yye are awaiting with interest the conference with your
representatives on the site of the improvement.
Ff rYour information 1 am inclosi.ng copies of all
correspondence that has passed between the Uity and your
