DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1020.

Improvement of Streets in City Ordered (Continued from Page One) used lfi Improving them, the council men expressed the opinion that the ordinance should Bo repealed or modified so that It would not affect ' those places where ashes could be used to advantage. The dumping of ashes In improved alleys up-town is forbidden and if the ordinance is changed (his restriction will remain therein. Property Owners Notified The clerk was Instructed to notify the Hale heirs and A. D. Buttles, agent, to repair the sidewalks alongside of the Elberßon Service Station and where the old Hale warehouse stood on Jefferson street. The clerk was also instructed to notify J. G. Niblick to repair the fence alongside of his property on West Monroe street, west of the Niblick store, and to notify Fred Schafer to remove dht from the sidewalk at the corner of Jefferson and Sixth streets. Wants a Brick Street Samuel Acker asked for the improvement of North Second street north of the old mill, commonly knowrt as the Sugar Beet road and was informed by the council that the city's finances did dot permit the bricking of the street this year, but that if a petition was presented it might be possible to brick the steet next year. Other petitions for street improvements are on file and these improvements will be made before others are started. The Oiling of Streets The matter of oiling streets was also discussed and the councilmen stated that the eost of oiling streets ibis year would be assessed against the abutting property owners. The council stated that the property owners would have to pay for the oil and that the city would do the work and see that they were oiled. In this connection it was advised that a resolution be passed ordering certain streets to be oiled and to proceed with it like any other improvement. Last year the council experimented i with oiling certain streets and it j was found that it was costly and that i nearly every person living on an unimproved street wanted their street (iled. As the council merely wanted to try out the experiment all the streets could not be oiled last year. i Property owners along these streets are again asking that the streets be | oiled this year and in order to acI comodate them and grant the improvement, it has been deemed advis- ' able to proceed with oiling the same las with other improvements, the j abutting property owners to pay their I proportionate share of tile eost. The Repair Program it was also stated that the streets would be improved with stone as coon as weather conditions permitted aqd when the roads become hard and the temperature warm enough to permit oiling the work will he started. Commissioner Aughenbaugh and members of the council believe in keeping the streets and unimproved roads in good condition and a regular road repair program will be carried out this year, keeping the streets in as good repair as possible.
