<br /> "We have had numerous requests from the residents of the Grove Park section ~est of
<br /> Air Line Boulevard to provide bus service through that area. We have been reluctant to consider any further ex-
<br /> tension or revision of the Oregon Acres bus line due re competitioll in this section from the Community ~otor Bus
<br /> Company.

<br /> Recently we have had several meetiugs~ith representatives of the Grove Park Civic
<br />League and on Wednesday evening, January 23rd, I attended m meeting of this group and the subject was discttssed i~

<br />quately serve these patrons; however, it was pointed out that the manner in which this service is patronized will
<br />determine whether it will be permanently established.
<br />
<br /> Councilman Carl C. Houghton,Jr. was present at these meetings and it was suggested
<br />that this revision be placed on a ninety day trial after which an ordinance could be adopted effecting, this changel
