HARD ON THE TREES i ) WHEN THEY GO TO BEAUTIFY | THE CITY. Board of Works Believe Too Many' Cut Down--Action Deferred on Proposal #0 Open Sydenham Street. 3 } That some. citizens are hard on the | trees, wanting them cut down, when / there is mo necessity for doing so, | {was the opinion expressed by some of | the members of the board of works, | at their regular meeting on Thursday | afternoon. It was considered a great | shame the way some people acted, in! wanting permission to cut down | trees which interfered with s. | Some of the trees are twenty twehty-five years old, and go beautify the city, yet there are zens who they be down, ! | "The matter was discussed, when a {request came fcom J. Jenkins, Division | street, to have a tree removed as it | interfered with a walk. The request was left with the chairman and city engineer with power to act. : i Ald. Rigney, the chairman, presided at the meeting, and the other mem-| bers present were © Alds. Carson, Toye} and Harrison. Robert Moon, 12 Alma street, peared in support of a request he | made to the city council, which was | referred to the board. He asked that! the city pay him for the work did abot seventeen years ago, in the construction of a 'drain on his pro- | perty. The city farnished the tile | for the drain and Mr. Moon, with some assistance, did the work, With- | in the past year, it appears that a couple ot ips have tapped the drain, and now Mr. Moon considers that he is entitled to be paid for his work out of the funds of the city. Mr. Moon was not in a position to present the amount of his claim, and he was requested to do so at the next meeting and then the board will act. | Mrs. D. Henry compldined about stagnant water in a vacant lot off | Stephen street, pwned by the city, and which is used as a roadway. Ar rangements may be made to have it filled in. The city engineer will investi gate the matter. {" Two tenders were received from lo- i {eal liveries, for the use of a horse and ! I rig, which will be needed for the city | walk a to citi | ask that cut | ap- lengineet's department, during the sum- | {mer months. One tender was $32.50 per month, and the other #28. The |Jatter was accepted. It was presented ' by Frederick: A. Bibby. Last year, it {cost the city $25 per month, for the use of a horse and rig. | Two tenders were received for the supply of oil, which will be needed for the streets, but action was deferred, until a tender is received from a third company. , | As several streets are to be paved this summer, the board is anxious to have all the underground work which it will be necessary~dor the different departments to do, to be carried out as soon as possible, and the different departments will be asked to sea to this work. A report was received irom the waterworks committee, to the effect that all the vork of this kind liad been completed on the streets, to be paved. ' i | The committee decided to necopt the offer of the street railway company, in regard to work necessary for the mac. adamizing of U~ion street, Barrie to Alfred street, and on Princess Street, Division to Alfred street. The extra cost to the city. on account of the street railway tracks will amount to! $475. The matter was discussed at | the last meeting of the board | | Tenders will be asked for, for the supply of canvass, which will be re-| quired for covering over the new side- | walks constructed this summer | A request was received for a new walk on east York street, Albert to Nelson street, but the board decided that it should be petitioned for in the usual way, before being acted upon. | Ihe Warren Bituminous Paving com- | pany will be asked to furnish a small carload of asphalt, which is required for repairing street corners. The price is $30 per ton. The board deferred action on the re commendation of ex-mayor Couper, for the opening of Sydenham street, from Brock to Princess, referred to in Wednesday's Whig. Ald. Toye drew the attention of the hoard to the dangerous condition of the walk on Clarence street, from Oan- tavio street, to the Grand Trunk tracks, and it is likely that a new walk will be constructed. | | !
