to suspend, or hold in abeyance, such construction, our Company
is hereby offering the City Government the opportunity to cancel
the contract for the above mentioned Paving District #111, Section
liD", at any time prior to March 1, 1950; it being expressly under-

To the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Grand Island, Nebraska
Gentlemen:
William P. Mullen Vs. City of Grand Island
No. 11225-6-7
The three above cases were consolidated and tried to a jury be-
fore Judge Spikes in District Oourt on November 14 and 15, 1949.
The jury returned a verdict for $1200.00. Judgment was entered
thereon with 6% interest tram November 15, 1949, and costs.
Motion for ne'\ilT trial '\iITaS filed, submitted and over-ruled on
December 9, 1949. The time to appeal the case to the Supreme
Court expires on January 9, 1950.

The evidence disclosed:
(a) That the plaintiff was not legally employed by
the City to bring the three suits to foreclose taxes.
(b) That he was employed by Hall County in said suits.
(c) That the City was not made a party in said suits.
(d) That no pleadings were filed for the City in
said suits.
(e) That the plaintiff, in collusion with the defen-
dants and their attorneys in said suits, waived
interest in the approximate sum of $10,000.00,
v.rhich vTaS a loss to the City.
(f) That the plaintiff waived all attorneys fees
in said suits.
(g) That the plaintiff entered an appearance for
the City on a claim for a party and agreed to
a refund, who was not a party to and the premises
were not involved in said suits.
(h) That the plaintiff was the duly elected, quali-
fied and acting police judge of the City dUl"ing
all of the time said suits were pending.
It i.8 my opinion that the evidence and law' do not support the
verdict and judgment for the following reasons:
1. Article Three, Section 10 of the Charter of the
City of Grand Island provides that no officer
of the City shall be interested directly or
indirectly in any contract to vihich the City or
anyone for its benefit is a party - such interest
in any contract shall avoid the obligation thereof
on the part of the City. Violation of the provi-
sions of this Section shall avoid the obligation
of such contract on the part of the City and
defeat any reOovery for services rendered thereunder.
2. Section 16-305, Revised Statutes of Nebraska for
1943 provides that no elective office of the City
of Grand Island shall hold any county office nor
shall he be appointed to any office created by
the Council.
3. In Falldorf v. City of G-rand Island, 138 Neb. 212,
292 NW 598, our Supreme Court held:
4. Where the statutes of Nebraska fix the
interest and penalties to be charged on de-
linquent special assessments, established
prior to the adoption of a home rule char~er,
and such char~er, from and after its adoption,
~ikewise fixes the interest and penalties to
be charged on delinquent special assessments,
the city subsequently is not empowered by
general ordinance to remit and cancel interest
and penalties charged on delinquent special
assessments and accept in settlement thereof
the original amount of the assessment. To do
so would require a grant of special power.
4. B. J. Cunning~lam, called as a witness in this
case, testified that in his opinion the decrees
entered in the tax forec,losure suits are subject
to attack by either the City or any taxpayer.
5. That the court erred in failing to instruct the
jury that if they found for the plaintiff that
from the amount determined as the fair and reason-
able value Qf his services, there should be deducted
the sum of ~p1373.60 paid by the City for such
services before the suits were filed.
e
I
I
I
e
(~ '/'
\J U
6. That the City sustained a large loss through the
services of the plaintiff which ,,,,as more than
the reasonable value of his services.
7. For other errors of law which occurred during the
trial of the case.
For these reasons and to secure a ruling on the legal questions
involved in this case, and to protect you in the event suits are
filed by any taxp.ayer, I recommend that an appeal be taken to the
Supreme Court. If there is any other information you desire,
I will be glad to furnish it.
Respectfully submitted,
H. G. We1lensick
After 80me discussion, on motion of Wilson, seconded
by Snygg, Clerk was requested to re-read said opinion. After

You are advised that the property described as the North
One-half of Lot 5, Block 3, Dawn Addition, of about .389 acres,
belonging to John Henry Carter, is subject to the lien of the
state of Nebraska for assistance furnished 1,11". Carter. The
warrant in this case should be made payable to John Henry Carter
and to the County of Hall. I would suggest that you have Mr.
Carter sign the same and then deliver the warrant to the County
Treasurer, after the lien of the State has been released. I
understand from James I. Shamberg, Deputy County Attorney,
that he has prepared a Resolution authorizing the release of the
lien, which Resolution will be adopted at the next meeting of the
County Board. If you wish you can deliver the warrant in this
case to me and I will see that the same is delivered to the
proper parties entitled thereto.
This is to advise that payment cannot be made at this time
for the taking of the real estate described as Lots 1, 2 and 3,
in Block 3, Dawn Addition, of about 1.556 acres, belonging to
James P. Dugan. As I understand it, Mr. Dugan is deceased and
it is believed that he has two children residing somewhere on the
west coast. I also understand that this property has been invol-
ved in a tax foreclosure proceeding. Notll.ing will be required
to be done at this time until a determination has been made as
to who!!). the amount must be paid.
If you have any question to ask about the preparation and
delivery of these vlarrants, I shall attempt to be of assistance
to you if you call me.
Yours very truly,
Paul Holmberg,

Grand Island, Nebraska.
February 15, 1950
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Grand Island, Nebraska
Gentlemen: .
At your meeting of February 1, 1950 Mr. John Nielsen
requested permission to remodel a business building into a resi-
dence on the rear of a lot at 1004 West Sixth Street.
This request was referred to the building department
for consideration and I was asked to check this building and
surroundings.
Mr. Nielsen has a corner lot 52.8 feet by 132 feet
with a large house on the front of the lot. The buildings on
the rear of the lot and extending about thirteen feet over onto
the lot to the west and covers a built up area of about 2344
square feet.
That part of the building facing Greemvich Ave.., \'Thich
Mr. Nielsen wishes to remodel into living quarters'and an annexed
garage covers approximately 1108 square feet. This could be re-
built into a residence by making some changes to meet the require-
ment of our building code.
That part directly 'vest of the proposed residence ,,,11ich
covers about 756 square feet should be taken dovm as' it is not
suitable type of construction for this area and might be detri-
mental to, the surrounding neighborhood. By taking this part of
the building down would leave a nice two stall garage out in the
open some distance from the residence. This double garage is now
built into the other building.
This is Residence "A" area ano. is built up vvith good
homes which should be talcen into consideration.
Respectfully submitted,
E. L. Walker
Building Inspector

Honorable l-1ayor and City Council
Grand Island,
Nebraska
G-entlemen:
i..
I
I wish to make report regarding a potential hazard to
Ci ty v.rell locat ed at South Locust Street and Stolley Stat e
Park Road by the opening up of tract of land located west and
across the road from this well. There are, at the present time,
three houses under constructionanel since there is no Dublic
sanitary sewer available we assume that the disposal of sanitary
sewage will be by cesspool or some other means.
I would recommend that the property owners adjoining this
well be notified as to the provisions of the State Health De-
partment as regards the proper installation for sewage disposal
units near a public well.

To the Honorable Nayor end l'lembers of the City Council:
Gentlemen:
I have at the present time under lease from the city,
a parcel of land containing approximately 70 acres. This land
is located in the southeast section of the Air Base, legal
description is East 1/2 of Section 2, Township 11, Range 9.
In the 1948 crop year this land ,.vas planted to w.heat
and barley. The yield of wheat was 10 bushel per acre and
yield of barley was 20 bushel per acre. The gross return of
this 70 acres for the 1948 crop year was $1412.00 and the
City's share waS $470iOO or $6.70 per acre. In the 1949 crop
year thi s land was plant ed to 40 acres of ,,'rheat and to 30 acres
of milo. The yield on the wheat .was 8 bushel per acre and the
milo was approximately 2 bushel per acre. The gross return
last year 00 the 70 acres was $960.00. The City's share was
$320.00 or $4.70 per acre.
In view of the above facts I would like to submit
the following proposal for your consideration. I would like
to install an eight-inch irrigation well so that I may irrigate
this land and plant 8uch crops as corn, sugar beets and other
crops that are sui~able to irr>igation. The cost of installing
this well will be $485.00. I propose to advance. the money for
the cost of this well. The city to repay me 1/5 of the original
cost each year for five years and at the end of this time the
well is to become the complete property of the city. The money
which the city will repay to me each year is to be taken from
its share of the crops. In this way the City will not have to
advance any money for the project and will improve the land on
wIdch the well is to be located to a considerable extent. The
pump which will be put in the well will be furnished by me and
will remain my property. The cost of the operation and main-
tenEl.nee of the pump will be paid by me.
In giving you the City's share per acre on this
~and for the past 2 years, the maximum they have received has
been $6.70 per acre. With the well on this land it is my belief
the City's share would be a minimum of $15.00 per acre or almost
three times the amount of the best previous year.
In view of the above facts I feel it would be to our
mutual advantage for this well to be put into operation at once.
I ask for you to give this your immediate consideration.
Thank you.
Clarence I. Cates
After some discussion, on motion of Cunningham, seconded by
Winkhoff, that a one-year lease be prepared wit~ provisions
that if the city cancel the lease before the entire cost of the
well had been paid,to Cates, the city would have to compensate
for the balance owing. If Cates cancelled the lease before the
five-year period, he would lose the unpaid equity. Lease to be
prepared by tIle City Attorney. All councilmen voting yes.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Grand Island, Nebraska
Gentlemen:
The City of Grand Island Electric Department have
a contract with the R. M. Daly & Company of DerMoines, Iowa
dated November 29, 1948, for the furnishing of insulation
at the Municipal Power Plant, Grand Island, Nebraska.
The R. M. Daly & Company have made a request for an
assignment of the proceeds of the above contract to the
Be.nker I s Trust Company, Des Moines 1 Iowe. In accordance
with the terms of the contract, which the City of Grand
Island has with this company, under paragraph GC-36, page
G~14 of the contract specifications. Assignments of this
nature can not be made without written consent of the owner.
There is attached, hereto, their letter of April 26, 1950,
requesting this assignment together wi th original and tl'J'O
copies of the assignment which has been signed by Mr.
Robert M. Daly. I am presenting this to you for your
consideration. The amount of the contract is $11,180.00,
of vvhicl1 4H,04l.00 has been paid to the R. M. Daly & Company.
Yours truly,
C. VI. Burdick

On motion of Foreman, seconded by Toft, the request referred
to was granted and the Mayor authorized to sign acknowledgement.

Honorable Mayor anet City Council
Grand Island, Nebraska
Gentlemen:
~,
I wish to make re-oo,,'t to vou relative to the con-
di tio~ of the City's ice m8ki'"~tank~ and expansion coils at
the Clty Ice Plant.
The present tank and coils,are a part of the ori-
ginal pieses of equipment instA.lled by the City in 1920
and have been in continuous use for 30 years.
During the past tlu"ee years we have had several
complete shut a.owns due to the poor concH tion of these pipe
coils, fittings, etc. Break downs of this order endanger
the supply of ice to City customers not withstanding we
have a fair storage capacity upon 't"hich we dra1'V during such
occasions. This, however, is limited by the heavy sales
in July and August at ",hlch time 1/3 to 1/2 mox's ice is
sold than is produced because of J)lant capacity. It is
obvious that a breal{ down in August '''ould very quickly exhaust
our storage supply.
Thi s being 8 major replacement I 't1Tould recommend.
that estimates be secured and specifications dra"l'm up for
the purchase and installation of new pipe coils (and tank,
if necessary) preparatory to calling for bids.
Yours very truly,
C. vi. Burdick
Commissioner
No positive action taken with the exception the Mayor requested
Councilmen to visit the ice plant.

built in this particular block, but according to the zoning
ordinance, the house should be 20 ft. bHCle from the lot line,
which would necessarily place the house too close to the east
property line. But that if the building could be constructed
16 to 18 ft. from the ~'lest lot line, it \vould conform to the

dence on Grand Island Avenue in that block, his opinion was that
same should be permitted. After further discussion, the
council agreed to Building Inspector Walker issuing a building
permit.

RESOLUTION
1,1HEHEAS, it appears that many of the highvrays in the
state of Nebraska are now inadequate to serve the needs of high-
1,ray users for the reason that the pavements an(1 otrleX' hard
surfaces thereon have deteriorated anel are crac}~ing and break-
ing, becoming rough and dangerous, ancI that saiel pavement sand
travel surfaces are insufficient to accommodate modern automo-
biles and trucks using the same, and
WHEHEAS, the Legislature of Nebraska in its 1949
session passed legislative bills No. 399 and No. 401 increasing
gasoline tax and motor vehicle registration fees to prOVide
ade1i tional funds "Ji th 't<\Thich to repair, rebuild and construct
state roads in the State of Nebraska, and to provide funds to
cities and villages for repairing, rebuilding and constructing
city and village streets, and
'WHEREAS, said legislation has ancl t-Till provide to the
City of Grand Island approximately $40,000.00 each year with
which to repair, rebuild and construct Grand Islancl streets, and
.
I
I
I
.
l~. 4 4-
... ~,
\~1EREAS, it appears that the use of highway user funds
(gasoline tax and registration fees) for the repairing, rebuilding
and constructin16 of city streets is equitable and just I ancl
should be continued clue to the fact that approximat ely 32%
or 32 out of every 100 travel miles in the State of Nebraska
are upon city and Village streets, and
WHEREAS, said legislative bills so passed will be
submitted by referendum to the electors of the State of Nebraska
at the General Election in 1950 for their rejection or continu-
ation.
. NOVI, THEREFORE I BE 1'1' RESOLVED thB.t the Hayor and
Council of the Oi ty of Grand Island, Nebraska, c10 hereby endorse
the bills increasing the gasoline tax and registration fees as
passed by the 1949 legislature (and now in full force) includ-
ing the provisions therein contained providing motor vehicle
registration fees to repair, rebuild and construct city and
village streets and respectfully urge the citizens and tax
payers of Grandlslancl, Nebrasl<::.a to oppose the Refer'enduro of
said legislative bills and vote "nou for the reasons set forth

tioners through ~ood and sufficient evidence that this plot
of land, which is out of the city limits, has recently been
purchased from Wm. Dudey by one J. H. Nitzel &/or the Nitzel
Company and that it is the declared purpose and plan of the
said J.H. Nitzel to plat and sub-divide this ground into
twenty-eight separate lots approximately forty-eight feet X
eighty feet, and that the individual plot plans already sub-
mitted to F. H. A. shows that said proposed housing to occupy

F. H. A. Loan through the Prudential Insurance Company and is
in possession of a letter under date of Oct. 30, 1950 from the
loan department of said Prudential Company relative to this
application to-wit: IIBased on information obtainable subj ect
building (duplex) would face into the rear of proposed rental
units to be possibly constructed on land across the street.
If additional favorable information can be supplied to clarify
this situation, then this case may be re-opened for further
consideration. II and whereas said loan is now being held up
due to the fact that the said J. H. Nitzel now has the subject
plat in the Omaha F. H. A. office, said petitioner E. W. Hogle
submits that the value and desireability of his building site
is bein~ directly affected by theproposed project of the said
J. H. Nitzel, and

36 ft. street traversi ng down the center of saidproposed. sub-
division, said new street in no manner being connectedwith or
conformin~ to the now existing streets, alleys, orpublic ways,
and that saidhousing will face this new disconnectedand non-
conforming street, thus throwing a row of damaging, unsightly
and undesireable back yards and rear areas onto Oak street
and into homes now existing in the Claussen addition and whereas
the said J. H. Nitzel is proceeding with all possible haste
to start such objectionably placed housing and non-conforming
plat unless remedial measures are taken at once your petitioners
will suffer great and irreparrable damage to their private
property and the City of Grand Island will become the chagrined
possessor of an illy-conceived, badly platted andobjectionable
addition and Oak street will have been made into a service
alley for the J. H. Nitzel housing project;
NOiiV THEREFORE your petitioners respectfully pray that the
subject 3! acres of land purchased by J. H. Nitzel &/or the
