MURPHY (Continued from Page 1) missioner Gourley with an eye toâ€" ward avoiding a possible controverâ€" sey with Highland Park‘s tree lovâ€" ers suggested that the removal of the tree be formally requested by the Garden club. _ Commissioner Swanson stated the Garden club had voiced no objection to the removal and could see no legitimate reason for further delay. Upon a vote of the council the tree was officially sentenced to die by a vote of four to one with Commissioner Gourley disâ€" senting. Thus ended the drama of the tree. In youth it might have sheltered the Mayor, but he was unable to reciprocate in kind at Monday evening‘s council meeting. The report of City Engineer Cole and Superintendent of the Water Department George Prindle on the prospective new 16 inch water main on Green Bci road between Central avenue and Edgewood drive came in for considerable discussion by the council. As readers of this column will recall this project was recomâ€" mended to the council late last fall for the purpose of rendering an adeâ€" Mich. Transportation and southeastern section of the city particularly during the peak load water demand periods. The existâ€" ing main is not able to meet the necessary requirements at these times. The current project calls for the installation of the Green Bay main only, with cross connections to the eastern part of the city planned for a later date. The new main is to be put down Green Bay rather than on an east side thoroughfare to render it accessible to the southâ€" western part of the city when that area is later developed. The cost of the new main is placed by Mr. Cole at around $64,000.

Look out through the easyâ€" vision Sefety Plate Glase in on the equipment: Twoâ€" Way Direction Signal with mls ing the council, Mr. Prindle stressed the importance of making this much needed improvement. He stated that in spite of the loss of the Highwood contract, more water would unâ€" doubtedly be pumped this year than in any year in the history of the water department. In the interest of public safety, Commissioner Swanson suggested something be done about the parkâ€" ing problem at Roger Williams and St. Johns avenues. To allow more room on St. Johns it was finally agreed to try parallel rather than diagonal parking. At Monday evening‘s meeting the council authorized the city to start preliminary engineering work on the Green Bay road paving and widenâ€" ing project 'hkril slated to get under way sometime next Fall or next Spring.
