Improvement plan. Mayor Suther-| land suggested that this be done, as! he claimed it would be: the fafrest| method to adopt. | Chairman Rigney explained that] two years ago the statute was chang- ed and Utilities Commissions were given power to put down gas and wa- | ter extensions under the Local Im-! provement plan in places where the necessary revenue did not come up| tu the amcunt required. As far as) the Kingston Commission was con-! cerned, he did not know of a case] where this new law was net invoked | where it was absolutely needed. 1 Mayor Sutherland claiined that the old pule requiring property owners to | guarantee the revenue had resulted) in confining building operations to! the more populated sectiong. He | claimed that it should net be neces-| sary for owners to give a large guar- aniee to get gas or water when oth- er owners alongside would pay noth- ing. He held that the Loeal Im- provement plan should be put into effect in all cases. Chairman Rigney sald he favored calling the amended statute into ef- fect as a club to compel men whose property was benefited by Utilities extensions to pay their share of the cost. Mr. Toye did not think the new law was made to be followed as a general principle, He thought it was to help out Commissions 'when they were '"'up against it," so that they could sell their debentures. The case chiefly under considera- tion was Centre street. It will cost $3,000 to put gas in that street, be- low Union. The guarantee offered by residents is equal to only a little over half the amount required. Mayor Sutherland favored adopting the Lo- cal Improvement plan in this case. It was finally decided to withhold action until Friday afternoon and to have the City Solicitor present to dis- cuss the general question of adopting this plan for all extemsions. The members were not sure Jhether this could be. doné or not. City Treasurer Bartels and City Auditor Muir gave the Commission some further Information, with re- gard to the proposed new accounting system for Utilities collections. They reported that monthly collection of gas d electricity would save the city $800 a year in interest which would go a good way in paying for Two girl clerks would be needed. The proposal is to divide the city into dis- triets and have two men to read the meters all the time, The treasurer and the auditor will bring in a fur- ther report to the Commission at its next regular meeting, so that the new system 'may be 'Started in the fall. The water rates will continue to be collected quarterly. y In attendance at the meeting were T. J. Rigney, J. H. Birkett, Toye and Mayor Sutherland. ' - | Letters to theEditor Macdonald Park Pitfalls. Kingston; June 28.-~(To the Edi- tor) :--While out walking yesterday 1 had oceasion to visit Macdonald Park, and noticed the same old pit- falls on the top of the hill surround- ing the Martelle tower. Being an admirer of the band concerts held in this park, I have attended many dur- ing the past few years, and have seen people get some very nasty falls in these holes. At night it is impos- sible to see the danger owing to the glare of the lights in the pavillion. It seems a shame that another sea- son is here and still this matter has not been attended to, when a few loads of earth would make walking safe. I think the atténtion of the Parks Committee on the City Engi- neer should be brought to this mat- ter--BAND CONCERT LOVER. Detainee R, H.
