<br />
<br /> Referred by Boar~ of Aldermen Nay E0tho
<br />
<br /> An ordinance to allow the pai~ men of the Fire Department to continue in office during terms of
<br />good behavior.
<br /> We have looked into this matter, believe that it would be inadv~sab!e to make any changes
<br />as to manner of appointing or electing the paid men of the ~ire Department, and recommend that no
<br />such change be made.
<br />
<br /> Advisability of an ordinance to prohibit or regulate theplacinE of wood and coal yards in re-
<br />sidential parts of the City.
<br /> We have looked into this matter and recommend that the following ordinance be adopted as
<br />to same:
<br /> An Ordinance Governing the Location and Operation of ~Wood and Coal Yards.
<br />
<br /> (With Street Committee). A petition of E. Thompson and sundry others to .~epeal the ordinance
<br />~oncerning house connections with mains of the Water Company with lead ~ipes, eo far as it relates
<br />to High street, from Chestnut street west to the County line.
<br /> We have examined thi~ matter, width the Committee on Streets, and'hav~ concluded to recom-
<br />mend the adoption of the fbl~lowing:
<br />
<br />AN ORDINANCE TO REPEAL SECTIONS Z58, ~59, ~60 AND THE ORDINANCE ENTITLED, ~AN ORDINANCE TO RE-
<br />

<br />
<br /> To provide an ordinance~ with penalty, to prohibit pers.ons from c=,esing lawns on Court and
<br />Fourth streets~or allowing horses, mules, &c., to grs~ze on the same. '
<br /> Your Committee are undem the impression that such. an ordinance as the one proposed would
<br />be of little public benefit, and besides they believe such an ordinance would be illegal.
<br />
<br />To provide an ordinance with penalty,
