council should require the contractor to pay for underground hydro installations the commission concluded that although it was more expensive underground had longterm advantages ii eliminates trouble with ice and snow cuts trcetrimmmg problems increases property value and in general lessens the risk of trouble hie commission agreed to compile figures as of today on the cost of underground street
