The owner shall have the right to deduct said liquidat'ed damages from any moneys in its hands otherwise due., to become due, to said con- tr~ctor, or to sue for ~nd recover compensation for damages for non performanc9 of this Contract at the time stipulated herein and provid9d for." Ther'3 was some expense to th9 vi ty caus'3d by this delay, .shouJ.d you desire to eX9rcise the provisions of this clause, the amount of adjustment should be deducted f~om the claim.

Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council: Gentlemen: Your Street & Alley Committee to whom was referred the matter of repaving the alley between First & Second Streets from Pine to ~neeler wish to report that after investigatioDfof the pre- sent condition of the paving we recommend repaving without delay. These alleys are now in such bad condition that the upkeep to them in a usable condition would soon run into a prohibited amount of money. It is our understanding these two alleys could be re- paved at a cost to the ~ity of about $892.45, this being due to WPA participation and also due to participation of the Telephone Company, due to cuts made in the pavement in putting in underground line. It is therefore the recommendation of your Committee, the Engineer's Office be instructed to make the necessary arrangements with the WPA to have th~s work done as soon as possible. Committee M. A.

Wish to call your attention to the fact the 1941-1942 budget adopted a short time ago provided for this increased salary so that granting this raise will work no hardship on the planned budget of the Street Department. We therefore earnestly recommend this matter be handled promptly by the Finance Committee. Yours truly, M. A. Olivetti -K:. L. Walker C. J.

To the Honorable ~ayor, and the City Council, Grand ~sland, Nebr. Gen tlemen: It is requested that you give favorable consideration to the purchase of two new Patrol cars, for the use of this Department. The two cars that we are now using, are OV3r one yer old, and one of them has traveled a total of over 52,000 miles and the other one has traveled a total of over 60,000 miles, and they are getting in such condition that they can not be depended on at all, and the cost of upkeep is getting excessive. One of them is even dangerous to drive. This mil-eage which is very large for a pol.ic e Patrol car, considering the type of service that is required, has been put on them in the nermal service, and emergency calls that the Department has been required to handle during the past year. The demands on the Department for service is steadily increasing, and required Patrol cars that are always ready for service. Please give this request your favorable consideration, as it is fast becoming an emergenc'y. Respectfully submitted, N. D. Zachry, Chief, Grand Island Police Department. On motion of Cords, seconded by Kammer, Clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for new cars, to be received Oct. 15, 1941. October 1, 1941. To the Honorable ~ayor, and City CounCil, Grand Island, Nebr. Gentlemen: Due to the fact that a new and serious situation has arisen from the opening of the new Dodge School, with .regard to the handling of the children going to and from school, who have to cross the Highways of the City, and the traffic which travels on these Highways, the following recommendations are made, with a request for your favorable consideration. It is requested that Traffic Signals be installed at the follow- ing intersections, where the Automobile traffic is heavy, and where school children are required to cross the hlghways. KO ENIG & LOCUST BISMARK & LOCUST SECOND AND MONROE STATE & BROADWELL (Eddy at five points) In former years it has been the procedure to place Traffic Offi cers at the intersections of 1st and Locust, Koenig and Locust, . I I I . ""} and at five Points. The extra cost of' doing this has run over a Thousand dollars a School Y~ar. This year, due to the School being moved, another dangerous int~rsection has arisen at Locust and Bismark, to take the place of 1st and Locust, and in addition, we have had numerous requests, and frequent demands, from Citizens living in the West Part of town, and North of Second Street, for an officer to take care of the children crossing highway No. 30, in the vacinity of Monroe Street. As yet we have been unable to take care of this new demand. The placing of Traffic Lights at these intersections, will mean a large saving to the City in the salaries of these Special Officers, and it is believed will very satisfactorily take care of the situation. Respectfully submitted, N. D. fachry, Chief, Grand .....sland Police Department. After some discussion was referred to Police Committee to make temporary arrangements. October 1, 1941. To the Honorable Mayor, and the City CounCil, Grand Island, Nebr. Gentlemen: This Department requests that you give favorable consideration to the purchase of a Quick Battery Charger, for the use of this Department. This is requested due to the fact that the cost of having the batteries of our Patrol cars, and the Poundmaster's car, charged, has been averaging about $12.00 per month, and there have been times when this ran considerable higher. In addition to this high cost, and probably more important to the efficient operation of the Department, is the time lost in the changing of Batteries at the service station, and oftentimes a second change due to the use of a rental which will not carry the load. With the new types of chargers, a battery may be boosted in a few minutes, without the necessity of removing it, and running the risk of damaging connections. Also, the fast charging is known and recognized as being far better for the battery,. by developing less heat in the plates, than the old method of charging. We believe that at the most, our patrol.cars would be out of service for only a few minutes at a time, and they would still be available, should an emergency arise; which has not always been the case when having the batteries charged at a service station. Respectfully submitted, N. D. Zachry, Chief, Grand Island Police Department. On motion of Cords, seconded by Colwell, report was referred to Police Committee with power to act. October 3, 1941.

December 8, 1941. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Grand Island, Nebraska. Gentlemen: ~ You have requested an oplDlon as to ~lether or not the City Council of the City of Grand Island has the authority to enter into a contract with the Grand Island Public School District for the pur- chase of the Old Dodge School site for a total sum of $55,000.00, $15,000.00 to be paid down and the balance of ~M.O, 000. 00 to be paid at the rate of $4,000.00 each year for a period of ten years. There has been no appropriation of any funds for such a purpose and no app- ropriation of the $15,000.00 for the initial payment on said purchase. Section 5, Article 16 of the City Charter provides as follows: "No contract shall be made by the City Councilor any other member or committee thereof and no expense s11p11. be incurred by any officer 01' department of the City whether ordered by the Councilor not, unless an approp- riation shall have been previously made therefor, except as herein otherwise provided.fl Our Supreme Court, in construing a similar provision in the Legislative Charter governing cities of the seoond class, and villages, held, in the case of Campbell v. City of Harvard, as follows: . I I I . "Contract in violation of charter provlslon making appropriation or sanction of ~lectors prerequisite to incurrinb of indebtedness is void." Under the above provision of the Charter and our Supreme Court decisions, a contract With the ~hool Board entered into without an appropriation having been made would be void. If the funds for the initial down payment were availabl:;;, it is still my opinion that th:;; City Council would not nav:;; th:;; authority to enter into th:;; contract and bind subsequ:;;nt city councils to pay the annual installments. The City of Nebraska City, being a city of th:;; sam:;; class as Grand Island, attempted in 1939 .to purchase 24 acres of land adjoin- ing a park in tllat city for an extension of the park. The terms of the deed of purchase proVided that the city pay $500.00 on Jan- uary 1, 1939, $500.00 on July 15, 1939 and $1000.00 on July 15th of each year, thereaft<;;r, until a total sum of $7500.00 was paid, without interest. Suit was instituted to ~njoin th<;; city from making any payments of money from city funds under this deed. Th:;; case was tried in the District Court and appealed to the Supr:;;me Court, where it was decided May 17, 1940. Th9 Court h9ld as follows: "Mayor and commission9rs of city could not purchase realty for park purposes by deed providing for install- ~:;;nt paym:;;nts by city beyond respectiv:;; terms of office of such officers and authorizing forf~iturs -and reversion of title to grantor upon default, sincep~~chas:;; was a 'gov:;;rnmental' or 'legislative' function as distingUished from a 'proprietary' or 'busin9ss' function and pledged City'~ credit beyond respective terms of the Mayor and comrnission:;;rs in violation of law.fT In vi:;;w of our charter provisions, and in view of the two Supreme Court decisions above, it is my opinion that th:;; Mayor and Ci ty Council cannot legally purchase the wdge School 8i te under the proposed plan. Yours very truly, c. E. Cronin On motion of Cords, seconded by Olivetti, opinion was received and plac:;;d on file. The following is the City Attorn:;;ys opion on th:;; City Manager :;;lection: . I I I . December 15, 1941. )f. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Grand Island, Nebraska. Gentlemen: You have requested an oplnlon upon the petition which has heretofore been filed requesting that the question of organizing the City of Grand Island, Hall County, Nebraska under the City Manager plan of government be submitted to the voters of the City, and as to the procedure to be followed by the Council in acting upon this petition. The City of Grand Island is at the present time operating under a charter adopted under the provisions of Sections 2, 3 and 4 of Article 11 of the Constitution of the state of Nebraska. The charter can only be amended in accordance with the provisions of this Article. The Constitution prov1.aes that the charter may be amended in either one of two ways; the first, by a proposal for specific amend- ments made therefor either by the law-making body of the city or by a petition of five per cent of the qualified electors in the City based upon the last preceding gubernatorial vote in the city; second, by a charter convention, the proposal for which convention can be submitted to the voters either by the law-making body or by a petition of five per cent of the voters voting at the last guber- natorial election. The present petition does not propose any specific am::mdments and does not particularly propose that the question of calling a charter convention for the purpose of amending the charter and establishing the City Manager form of government be submitted to the voters. However, the petition indicates a desire on the part of a sufficient number of the voters for a submission of the city manager question. Under ,the Constitution, the city council can do either of two things to give effect to this desire. First, the council can itself propose the specific amendments necessary to amend the city charter, and after prop-Brpublication can submit these specific amendments to the voters for their adoption or rejection. Second, the council may submit to the voters the question of .whether or not a charter convention shall be called for the purpose of framing a charter establishing a city manager type of government in Grand Island. Yours very truly, C. E. Cronin, City Attorney. On motion of Olivetti, seconded by Walker, the opinion was accepted, and City Clerk authorized to cont~act Mr. Jarrell, as proponent of petition for City Manager form of Government Election, requesting a meeting between sponsors of petition and City Council, preferebly Wednesday, Dec. 17, 1941 at 8:00 o'clock P.
