Gentlemen: At the last council meeting, I was directed to turn in a recommendation for the elimination of three street lights in the First Ward. This has not been an easy task to perform as the number of lights have already been drastically reduced. I believe however, that the three lights listed below may le 'safely eliminated without undue inconvenience: Illumination for stop light at Perry Street and River Road. Illumination for sewage pump house at Lee Street and River Road. Street light on stone Street between Wolf Road and Stratford Road. In my inspection of the lights, 1 further recommend that the lighting of the two stop signs at Thacker Street and Center Street be abandoned and that the overhead light at prariei and Center Street be removed since ornamental post lights provide all illumination necessary. Very sincerely, CJ : M.P CARTE= JET;KINS The motion was made by Alderman Huxmann and seconded by Collet to concurr in the report and that the lights mentioned be eliminated.
