He had talked with Mr Perrine of Portland General Electric and learned the 10 per cent would allow 4 free lights per year, more than this in any one year would cost $175 apiece. Each year cost and depreciation is figured and it is possible there may be a refund to the "City on street lights. Counciliaan Woodard and Superintendent Janne had learned that Cascade Paving Company were to start grading Center Street to ureenburg Road in readiness for paving, and the City had not been notified nor given.time_to raise the manholes to grade level.. Should this work be started:tomorrow as planned, it would mean they would cover over the two manholes on that street. The City,should have been notified- in time to raise the manholes to grade level. ?attorney Anderson expressed that since the law allows manholes in public ways, this indicates poor cooperation at the County level, that it:would be best to ask that operations be delayed until the City had opportunity to raise the manholes. Superintendent Janoe to contact Engineer McKinstry and;if difficulty is encountered call Councilman Hanneman to take the matter to Commissioner Nyberg. Councilman Woodard haid heard from Mrs G Q Blevins, wanting to know if the sewer could be connected,at her;property adjacent to Contractor Klock's Lomita Terrace Sub-division.
