<br />include thess parts to cost an additional $7~0~00 a total of

<br /> ~our co~iltee feels that after obtai~g a statement of t~
<br />~eceipts ~ud e~endi~.res of the Stadi~ fo~ this year, from
<br />the City Clerk, which shows a deficit of $7~500.00, this is a
<br />matter t~t should be given c~centrated and meticulous study
<br />by the entire Co~cil. This matter was not ~cluded ~ the
<br />Stadi~z ~dget, therefore, it would requ~e a two-tb~rds vote
<br />of the Council for the passage o f t~s appropriation, a~ w e a re
<br />doubtful a s to w~¢her it could be obtained, therefore, we res~ ct-
<br />f~ly reco~end that-t~s matter be referred to the ~dget C~

<br />tion of acting City Manager Fox as to the appointment of a qualified person t o complete the
<br />maps of the a~n%exed territory, was referre? to the City ~¢~nager.
<br /> I am recon~aending that ~u appropriation of $l,000.00 ~e placed on
<br />its first reading for this purpose~"
<br />
<br />~otion of ~r. t~s_ke to concur in the ~¢~anager~s r eco~¢aendation,was adopted
<br />
<br /> 2nd - ~I am attaching copy of a report from ~¥~r. Bergeron, the City
<br />giEeer, concerning estimated cost of a 6~ concrete sidewalk along Western ~anch Boulevard
<br />from the Colonial Z¢~norApartments to t he Western BranCh Road and also a similar sidewalk on
<br />the north side of ~Yestern Branch Boulevard from Riverside Drive tot he entrance to Glensheal-
<br />lab, the estimate cost being
<br /> mt is my understanding, according to the report that there is no
<br />sidewalk in this area and the school chil¢~en are required to walk in the streets to the new
<br />school building recently constructed in that area°
<br /> I therefore recm~lend that'this work be done and that the ques-
<br />tion of placing curbs aud gutters on Hartford St. be given further consideration, s ince this
<br />project will;~require additional storm drains."
<br />
<br /> Motion of Mr. Duke to place s~ approp~zatzon of' $4~!!6.00 on its first
<br />reading, was adopted.

<br />the question of necessary repairs to t he fire stations in the City~ with the City Engineer's
<br />estimate of the cost°
<br />I recommend that authority be granted to h ave the minor repairs
<br />made ~ud that i be given time to make a more detailed study of the larger items requested."
