a 21,000 lumen should be installed. ,o***
Greenlee states that the Park Superintendent has been out there, and report is ready for later in
meeting.
GEGRGE R. FISHER: (L.I.D. No. 67)
Construction work on L.I.D. No. 67 will be completed on April 10, 1964. All work has been completed
except the replacement of the street surfacing. In order that the 30 day period for withholding is
started as soon as possible, wish to.recommend that the contract bf John Keltch for the construction
of sanitary sewers in Terrace Heights Addition be accepted, subject to the satisfactory completion
of surfacing replacement, and that upon such satisfactory completion, that the State Tax Commission
be notified of the completion of the contract. All work done to date has been done according to
the specifications and in a highly satisfactory manner. Respectively, George R. Fisher, City Engineer.
Motion made by Hendler, seconded by James that his request be granted, subject to his approval of
the work. Motiop�carried by roll call vote of seven(7).
MRS. JOHN FORD: Proposed Cemetery Property (2 sites). Soil conditions of the south side appear to be
more favorable. Oregon St. -interchange creates undesireable situation. She recommends the city obtains
approximately 10 acre site,to `the south of the existing cemetery to replace that portion of the cemetery
being isolated by the by -passe free way. Offers further assistance. Mayor indicated he would write
a thank -you letter to Mrs. Ford.

that this particular problem be referred to building committee of council to work on some type of an
amendment or some type of action in the building code whereby this can be prevented in the future.

abatement ordinance, than if the city were to take such action.

Highways that are incorporated in our arterial street program, namely Court Street and S. 10th.

in view of the fact that the additional traffic over the "old bridge" and the creation of the Gum
Street underpass, through route in Kennewick this is putting excessive burdens on Pasco. This
meeting was held with Mr. Mackey and our engineer -advisor and it was determined to prepare a pros-
pectus for presentation to the State Highway Commission in the immediate future to seek Federal Aid
money for these secondary highways.
