Motion. Carried. MANAGER' S REPORT: At the next regular meeting, April 6th, there will be Resolutions of Intent covering the request for L.I.D. in connection with street improvements, 13th & Bonneville as requested by the P.U.D. among others; the street improvements as petitioned for in Sylvester's Second Addition; and for the Sanitary Sewer Installation on Sycamore Street, as petitioned. Ordinance No. 1183: This Ordinance has been tabled and will come up for dis- cussion at the next workshop meeting. The City Engineer requested the Council to be giving some consideration as to the width of paving on 13th from Clark to Bonneville, also to be discussed at the workshop meeting. Motion made by Griggs, seconded by Bailey that the City Manager design 13th between Clark & Bonneville for angle parking at the expense of the P.U.D. Motion Carried. 1 1 The City Engineer also requested advice from the Council as to their thinking in the matter of street surfacing and replacement on the streets where storm sewer contractor has cut through the streets - Aurelia, Henry to Court, etc. which are not under the street improvement program. One of the proposed L.I.D.'s will affect Aurelia, Henry to Court. If the contractor replaces the surfacing, the City will, in effect, be relieving the contractor from maintenance on Aurelia to Court. There is a possibility of a savings if we do not have him replace this surfacing; however, there would then be a dust problem. This, also to be discussed at workshop meeting. Any money saved would be a saving against the' City, 1965 budget. Councilman Griggs requested the City Engineer to furnish figures at the next workshop meeting. ADJOURNMENT: Motion made by Greenlee, seconded by Carter that the meeting adjourn. Motion Carried, Attest: PASSED and APPROVED this ay of 1965.
