motion of Gross the City Attorney was authorized to make settlement.
The Sewer Committee made the following report:
To the Mayor B,nd City Council of Grand Island, Nebro.ska
Gentlemen:
We, the undersigned members of the Sewer Committee
of Grand Isla.,nd, Nebrpska, make report th8,t we have been
asked by officials of the Works Progress Administration to
provide projects so as to furnish employment for those who
are not employed. We find the Work~ Progress Administration
will 11ay the cost of all labor and ~~13 .00 per man month
on co~t of materials, which two items of expense will pro-
vide approximately 55% of the cost of the project. We have
approved plans for storm sewer laterals constructed as
follows:
Fourteenth Street from Walnut St. to Eddy St.
Cedar Stre t from Fourteenth St. to Fifteenth St.
Walnut Street froTn Fourteenth St. To Fifteent:o Sil;.
Sixteenth Street from Cedar St. to Eddy St.
Stccte Street frorn Cleburn to Eddy St.
Seventeenth Street from Elm St. to Eddy St.
Adams Street from North Front St. to Fifth St.
Washington Street from Sixth St. to Fifth St.
Thirteenth Street from Clark St. to Eddy St.
said storm sewer laterals will be constructed out of 12 inch
pipe, and will cost approximately $14,000.00, 45% of which
will be paid for by the city. The work on said project
has been started and the labor provided.
We, therefore, recommend that the construction of
s8.id storm sewer la.terals be approved; thctt the cost there-
of be paid from the funds now in the Sewer Fund; that we
recommend the construction of said storm sewer latera18 for
the reason that if the same is not done, many men will be
unemployed and will be forced to seek relief.

Report
Ivlr. Kr e hmke ,
Cha.irman Water and Light Committee
/'
"A
Referring to the purchase of approxinla.tely
2.7 miles of Thlral Transmission line now owned by the
Cectra.l Power Company and located south a.nd east of Grand
Island, which purchase is recommended to be made in order
to remove our present rural line in this territory which
now runs over private right-of-way, a,nd inasmuch as it is
impossible to arrive at any agreement with some of the
parties with regard to the conti.nuation of private right-
of-way crossing, I should like to recommend that an agree-
ment be entered into with the Centr'al Power Company for the
purchase of their line which is allan the highway.
The matter of the purchase of this line,
and it's value has been estima.ted by us, and has been taken
up with Mr. Johnson of the Central Power Compa~y, who has
advised us that they ha~e placed the price of $2000 on this
line. Considering the fact that we will gain two new
customers and can eliminate entirely any private right-of-
way crossing, and will be able to take out 0111' present
private right-of-way crossing to the extent of approximately
two and one-half miles of line, I believe that the purchase
price is not out of line.
If, after considering this, you find it
satisfactory, I should like to have authority gra.nted me
to make this dee.l with the Centra.l Power Company, as sta,ted
above.
C. W. Burdick,
Water and Light Commissioner
On motion of Behnke the report was referred to the Light,
Water and Ice Committee with power to act.

On January 20th, 1937, the Mayor and Council sat
as a Board of Equaliza.tion for the purpose of levy-
ing a special tax to pay for the graveling of the
streets in Graveling District No.5. At that time,
there was a schedule of assessments before the Mayor
and Council, and a Resolution Was adopted. The
schedule at that time before the Mayor and Council
was not correct, and the assessments made thereunder
are not valid. I have prepared a new schedule correct-
ing the errors previously made, and I recommend that
the Mayor and Oouncil sit as a Board of Equalization
for the purpose of making assessments in the said
district on the 3rd day of March, 1937.

Council met in regular session, His Honor the Mayor pre-
siding. All members answering present at roll call except Reimers
who was out of the City.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
A delegation of Grand Island citizens headed by E. J.
Wolbach, President of Library Board, individually made pleas to the
Council for consideration in the building of a new Library or at
least an addition to the present. All claiming the library books
and magazines as well as Library officials and aides to be very
good but the space was inadequate to take care of the needs of the
citizens and patrons of the Library.
Mr. Buechler giving data on plans prepared 5 or 6 years
ago but still available providing the Council and People of Grand
Island were in a mind to make arrangements for the building. After
some discussion by the members of the Council., Justice made a motion
to refer the matter to City Property Committee, Library board and
City Attorney to th~sh out matters preparatory to the voting of
bonds to cover expense, seconded by Koehler. Carried.
His Honor reappointed Mrs. Clinton John to the Library
board for a period of 5 years from July 1st, 1937.
Mr. Wo1bach thanked the Mayor and City Council for their
consideration and cooperation in the matt-er of the Library.
A request to place a tent, for religious services was
presented and the Mayor and Council decided the only thing to be
done was, that the party desiring to erect said tent, ~ get the
permission of adjacent property owners if same was a'tainab1e.
Mr. J. H. Pratt, spokesman for a number of W.P.A. employees,
who had received notice of dismissal, as their work was not essential
to the project, 43 men already notified and more to go. Mr. Pratt
thought the Mayor and City Council might cause an investi~ation as to
ruthless spending of money, in the way of duplications of work which
in reality did not pertain to improvements nor was it essential to
the work going on at the Airport.
He stated at least 3 attorneys had tried to start an
investigation as to conditions and expenditures but were unable to
get anywhere. Archie 9'Brien and Justice Shada were two of the three.
Motion by Justice, the matter ~ be referred to a Special

Gentlemen:
We, your Comrnittee on water and light, beg to relJOrt, tha.t
owing to an emergency arising by virtue of the paving being laid by
the State at North Bro.~\dwell and Stcote Street, that we found it
necessE'xy to authorize the W,-=:J,t er Commissioner to proceed imElediately
with the laying of' approximately 900 ft. of 611 water main in
Bron,dwell Avenue from State Street north to College Street, before
the mid pavement wa.s laid.
We would recommend that a District be created embrncing
the above water main extension and that the s~ae be assessed against
abutting property, the same as other districts, except that collection
for same may be deferred until at such time abutting property owner
desires to make tap, at which time collection will be made in full.
Also that any property owner living in said district now receiving
city water, and not having paid any assessed benefits for same, will
be assessed on above district and collected according to la.w.

Council met, pursuant to adjournment of July 26, 1937, for
the purpose of hearing prot ests, if any there be, on the zoning in
the FOURTH WARD.
Mrs. Kikendahl, 1721 North eddy, also has some rent properYL
in same block, protested the Commercial Zoning plan as outlined for
the Fourth Ward, she thought the people in general, in that section
of the City, desired that portion of the city to be strictly resi-
dential, and not messeo. up with this, that ahd the other kind of
business. Particularly was she interested in that portion of the
zoning, generally known as FIVE POINTS, stating that by opening it
up as a Commercial district, it would naturally be more hazardous
to the school children attenting WEST LAWN SCHOOL and not very desirow
as far as the school would be concerned.
Floyd Nicholas, 1716 N. Eddy St., was represented by Mrs. v
Kikendahl, protested practically as Mrs. Kikendahl did.
Mrs. John Jones, 1720, N. Eddy St.; Mrs. J. D. Bullis,
415 N. Eddy st; Mr. Eugene Freeman, 1916 N. Huston, all objected to
making Eddy St. in the cormnercial zone, because at this time it was
not necessary, there being enough commercial enterprises at this
time for the good of the residents, in that part of the city.
Mr. Lee Williams, 724 W. 17th St., protested on the Commer- v
cial zoning on Eddy, because he felt that it would be detrimental to
that pa.rt of the. city, in so far as residences are concerned, and
that they had been harmed enough already by the routing of Hiway #281
over Eddy Street.
A letter from Mr. C. N. Watson, 608 N. Eddy, claimed that -
until she was better informed on the zoning in that section of the
city she would protest.

Council met pursuant to adjot~nment July 27, 1$37. All
members being present at Roll call. Mosor stated that protests on
the Zoning ordinance covering the Second Ward were in order.
Mr. J. L. Cleary speaking for protestors of West Second St.
"...., s----J-
st,ated that homes We st of Cedarj\ were very well kept and he also called
attention to the pride of these home owners. He aJ.so stated that if
one woul d go over this area during Bony forenoon he believeEl that no
one would think or conscienti.ously say that this should be in a
Commercial area.. That to his knowledge in the last 50 yrs. the
business area had only expanded 1 block westwerd on Second Street. At
this point ~ written protest was presented by M1.... Cleary and ree,Q by
the Clerk. (On file in the city Clerks Office).
A. J. Luebs, representing Don and Theod.ore Boem and C.. J.
McIn.tos~, and indirectly severel heirs of the Coates estate, claimed
that if Second St. up to and including Eddy Street intersection was
not in the Commercie.l Zoning that it would cause a loss to the Boehm's
and Mr. McIntosh. He paid tribute to the Zoning Committee. He requestd
that the Cotmcil walk out on Second street and make up their own
minds as to whether or not it was the Filling Station on West Second
or the heavy traffic that caused the noises an.d disturbances in that
section.
Mr. William Suhr, claimed that he came into the meetj.ng with
no intentions of speaking, but he was forced .to in behalf of Judges
cla.iming that he had never heard of a judge decid.ing a Case in advance,
neither did he consider this the time for exchange of personalities
but he thought that all that the protestors desire) is Justice.
Mr. Alter, in selfdefense, said that if the decision were
left to him to be made he would decide on the Commercial Zoning to
stop east of him rather than west, that he considered there was plenty
of room for expansion east of Cedar Street.
All speakers thanked the Council for theil" attention. At
this point the May.or asked if there was further protest on this Zoning
District. There being no further protests; Gross moved that the prot-
ests be referred to the Committee for further consideration, seconded
by Koehler. Carried. Justice moved edJournment.

Oommunication trom Ohief Harry L. Moore suggesting some changes
in parking on South Front Street.
September 13, 1937
Hon. Thomas M. Dillon, Mayor
Members ot City Council,
Grand Island, Nebr.
Gentlemen:
The Grand Island Police Department begs to present the follow-
ing situation tor your consideration and to tender the following explan-
ations for your approval.
The parking space which is allotted for the ase of large
trucks while in this city is very limited. At present, they are barred
trom parking within the +lmlts of the business section with the expection
of the one .blook between Pine St. east to Syoamore St. on the north side
ot East Front St. In th~s truok parking zone, parking is ltImi ted to
parallel parking only. Regulations have set aside this territory for
truoks only.
We suggest that you set aside as a parking apace for truel:s
the additional space as tollows:
From Pine St. west to Looust St. on the ~ofth side of Front
St. parking ot trucks to be parallel to the curb on the northside ot
street.
We also adviseo~ suggest that the ~9r~~ ~ of Front St. trom
Wheeler St. west to Walnut St. bemarked with stalls for parking of the
ordinany passenger car. This will give one blook more parking space and
will relieve somewhat a congestedcondltion which exists in the city.
We recommend that these changes be made and that suitable post-
ing of signs be made for the making known of this condition to all ear
drivers.
Your consideration and action on these matters at your earliest
convenienoe is respectfully ~equested.
Respectfully yours,
Hl L. Moore, Police Chief

We can get ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($IOO.OO) more trade-in

By trading our ears every year, we eliminate any large repairs.
It will be unnecessary to buy tires, as they will run a
a year easily, except in ease of accide1ilt.
In oonolusion, we will save money by trading cars ever,y year
as shown by our reoords of upkeep in the pas~ years.

Honorable Mayor and City Gouncil,
Grand Island, Nebraska.
. We, your Committee on Water and Light, to whom was referred the
recommendation of the water: and Light Commissioner regarding needsd plant
I improvements desire to repot.. t as fOl.10WS: We find that demands for electric
current by consumers in Grand Island on the power plant have inoreased to
. . such an extent that it is necessary, at this time, to purchase such equip-
ment as will be required to meet these increasing demands. In order to
carry out this work, we find that it will be necessar~ to secure the con-
sulting services of an engipeering firm who will. colaborate with your
Committee and the Water andi Light Commissioner in the formulating of plans
and specifications covering the needed improvements.
We would recommen~ that the services of Black and Veach, Engineers
of Kansas City, Mlssouri, be retained as consultants on this work, for
services to cover preliminary reports, plans and specitications, inspections
and final tests, and all other services required to render a complete and
thorough nob with the excep~~on of plans and specifications for the boiler
.room building structure. W~ would further recommend that the Mayor and
City Clerk be authorized tOI sign a mutually satisfactory a~reement covering
their services as above outlined, the fees not to exceed 4! % of the amount
of work done under their su~ervision.
We further recomm~nd that this work be done as quickly as possible,
and that the Water and Ligh~ Commissioner be given authority to dismantel
such old equipment for disp9sal and removal preparatory.to the installation
of the new improvements. al~o that the Committee be given the power to
dispose of this old equipment to the best interests of the City of Grand

I TO THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL,..
. GRAND ISLAND, NEBRASKA.
.Gentlemen:
We, the members 01 the Airport Committee, make the following
report concerning the movin~ and relocation of the telephone lines be-
longing to the Nbr:1J,hwestern' Bell Telephone Comps.ny, tlhdj:"~the power lines
belonging to the City of Grand Island, which iines now exist around the
boundaries of the new munlc~pal airport.
5fl"f r;
i..,/.lLU
The lines belongi!ng to the said Telephone Company now exist on ><
the West and North lines ot sald field. It has been proposed to move the
West line one mile West, and the North line one mile North. Power lines
belonging to the City of Grand Island now exist on the West, South and
East. It has been proposed to lay the West line underground a.nd to move
. the South line one mile South and the East line one Mile East. There are
also some buildings directlY East of the said airport now being served by
II the City, and it has been proposed to servs thess buildings by bringing a
power mine in from the Eastl.
All of these chaqges have been referred to the Bureau of Air
Commerce of the Department ,of Commerce for approval; and word has been
received from A. B. McMillein, Chief, Airport Section, Safety and Planning
Division, under date of Octiober 12, 1937. The letter from the said A. B.
McMillen is, in part, as fo!llows: "We notethat it is proposed to remove
the telephone lines which now exist along the West and North sides of the
new municipal airport at Grland Island, Nebraska. The relocation of these
lines one mile to the Nort~ and West of the airport is satisfactory from
an aeronautical standpoint. The proposal to relocate the power lines which
are along the West, South and East sides of the new air~rt is satisfactory.
This will locate the West liine underground, the South line a mile South,
I
and the East line a mile E~st."
We further reporti that copies of all letters in connection with
the relocation of these lines have been furnished to Mr. Oscar Johnson,
local representative of the! Northwestern Bell Telephone Company, and to
Mr. C. W. Burdick, Light ana Water Commissioner of Grand Island. We
further report that your Committee has met with Mr. Johnson and Mr. Burdick,
and the matter thoroughly d~scussed.
We, therefore, recommend that the Northwestern Bell Telephone
Company and the City Light Department of the City of Grand Island, be
directed, ordered and instructed to remove and relocate ~heir respective
telephone lines and light l~nes as herein provided, and as approved by the
II Bureau of Air Commerce. We: further recommend that a certified copy of
.this report be sent to the ~.I. orthwestern Bell Telephone Company, directed
to Mr. Oscar Johnson at Grand Island, Nebraska., and to Mr. C. W. Burdick,
Light and Water Commissioner of the City of Grand Island, Nebraska, and
the this report be consider~d as official notice to remove and relocate
said lines, and that the Cit.y Clerk be directed and instructed to prepare
and forward said certified ~opies.
