To the Honorable Common Councü nj the 'il y a) Aun Arbor. Gentlemen:- I see in the report of your last meeting that yon have ordered six plank crosswalks at the tollowing places. On the east side of E. Tjnivei-sity Ave., aeróos Washtenaw Ave. On the west side of Forest Ave1, acrossS. üniversity Ave. On the west side of 12th street across Hill street. On the north side ot Washington street acress Ingalls street. On the cast side of Ingalls street across Washington street. On tbe west side of Ingalls street across Washington. Also two briek crosswalks to be located as fohowá. On the north side of Jefferson street across State street. On the south side of N. Üniversity Ave., across State street. Also acrosswalk on the east side of División street across Washington to be built of stone slabs. I would like to see the above work go on and improvem' -never cease, but unfortunately the eondition of our Finances will not warrant the expenditure of any more money this season on our crosswalks than is absolutely nec. essary and therefore I disaoprove the action of your Honorable Body o far as it relates to all of the above work with the single exception of the crosswalk on the north side of Washington St., across Ingails which I think alraost indispensible as it would form ai. outlet to a large section of our oity. 1 would not advise your Honorable Body to order the repair of any tar crosswalks at this season of the year but would ad vise that you leave it with the Board of Public Works who can take advantage of the weather. Sucli work can not be properly done in cold wet weather such as we must expect at this season of the year. Very Kespectfully, W. E. Walker, Mayor. The resolution failed of passage over the veto of the Mayor as follows: Yea- Aid. Coon. - 1. Nays- Aid. Maynard, Moore, Grossman, Laubengayer, Dell, Shadford, Iihodes, Cady, Danforth- 9.
