The journal of the last session was Bpproved. PETITIuNS AM) COMMinsnCATIPa To th 'ommon Couwab The Board of Public Works beg leave tosubniit the following report of lts doings in the matter of bids for sewer tile' for the main sewer. The Board caused notice of the City's wants to be published in the local newspapers andalsodistributedamongweH-known producers and dealers in sewer tile; and as a result on the day set for closing such olïer, had eight bids ot responsible parties, all of which bids are snbmitted herewith. All of the bids were for the tile free on board of cars at A 1111 Arbor, subject to inspection by City Inspector. Each bid was accompanied by sample of tile proposed to be delivered. The Board, before deciding on any recommendation caused all of said samples to be thoroughly tested at the mechanical laboratory at the University of Michigan, all Of whicb tests are herewith submitted and made a part of this report. All things considered, we recommend that the tile of the Ohio Yalley Fire Clay Company be pnrchased and that a contract be made with such company for tile for the main sewer at their bid, being at 80 5-2 discount f rom list price (eastern list). We also recommend that the main sewer be constructed by the city under the direction of this Board. This recommendation is made for the following among other good and sufflcient reasons, viz: First, the inoney will be distnbuted among our own working men who are now in great need of an opportunity to labor. Second, there is reason to believe that in that manner the work is likely to be more efticiently done. All of which is respectfully submitted. By order of of the Board of Public Works. W. J. Millek, Clerk. Aid. Martin moved that the communication be accepted, adopted and placed on file. Adoüted. To the Common Council: The Board of Public Works would recommend and ask for the following appropriation of $100 to grade North State street, west side, between Kingsley street and Fuller street, for the purpose of constructing sidewalks on said street.
