1894 Sidewalk Issue
Alderman Ruffe presented a comminu- tion in reference to the sidewalk on Summer street between Willow and Bea- con stroets next to the Ward well estate. The sidewalk is from 12 to IS inches above the level of tlie street, and by lowering it and cutting down the trees some, three feet additional width would be afforded the street at this point. This was signed by Dr. Alvah Hovey, E II. Mason, F. II. Butts, L. Loving Brooks and 25 or 30 others. Accompanying tho petition was letter from E. C. Dudley and E. A. Shaw, owners of the abutting property, stating their willingness to set out new shade trees along the portion of tbe street re- ferred to. Alderman Roffe said that petitions for this work had been presented to tbe city council before, ouce last year and the year before, but he understood no answer had ever been given tbera. They wanted some recognition this time either favorable or otherwise. He moved its reference to the highway committee. Alderman Bothfeld said the matter came before the highway committee last year, but it seemed that the owuers of the abutting property bad lowered the grade of their land leaving the walk in its present condition and the city did not think it wise to go to the expeuse of lowering the sidewalk to suit the own- ers. Alderman Roffe said he was told that Mr. Noyes, wheu city eugineer, recom- mended that the grade of the land be lowered when approached by the own- ers for bis advice. The matter was then referred.
