<br />
<br />Pro fessions~

<br /> ~e,
<br />Buildlng~
<br /> First:
<br />
<br />July, was received mud ordered filed.
<br /> On motion adjourned.
<br />
<br /> the undersigned business and professional men, doing business in the
<br /> do here~y, request that no parking meters be put on Washington Street.
<br /> It will work a decided hardship on patients of pleysicians
<br /> and dentists. People with heart, ailments, old people, crip-
<br /> ples, and mothers with babies in their arms, will find it
<br /> especially difficult because of having to walk a greater
<br /> distance, sometimes ~hree or four blosk~.
<br />Second: Many patients find they have to wait considerably longer
<br /> them an hour to get in to see the doctor, consequently,
<br /> they can not use the meters.
<br />Third: There is a continual turn-oVer of parking spaces between
<br /> London suud: County Sts., and, while naturally there is
<br /> some congestion~ it unquestionably will be greater if
<br /> meters are installed.
<br />Fourth:-if meters were Lustalled, ten less cars could be parked
<br /> between High and King Sis., and twenty less cars between
<br />High and Queen Sts. A total of 30 cars within two blod~s.
<br />Therefore, we humbly.beg ttLis honorable body to leave Washington St.
<br /> as it is.
<br /> Signed,
<br /> dabell T. Mercer and sundry others."
