On motion of Falldorf the City Treasurer was requested to pe in his Office each day from 9 to 11 A.M. and from 2 to 4 P.M. The Water & Light Committee made report as follows; Your CorJr::1i t tee on 'Hater and Light, to wb6m v.ras referred the ~ gas matter in the City of Grand Island,begs leave to make the following Report; 1. Prices In giving the following figures,we have taken the net rate; Your COI:1.lTIittee has ascertained the prices charged for gas in several eities in the State of Nebraska,to-wit; Grand Island, Kearney,Hastings,Omaha and Lincoln and find the following; Grand Island First 300 For remainder of first 1000 1000 to 5000 5000 to 10f~OO 10,000 to 20,000 Kearney J'. net' M ~;)l. 90 per 1.80 " 180 " 1.80 " 1;';60 n 1.80 net 1.80 net 1.70 net 1.60 net First 1000 ?Text 4000 Next 5000 Next 10,000 Hastings First 1000 Next 4000 Next 5000 First 1000 ---~ Next 4000 lText 5000 ~ Next 10,000 First 1000 Next 4000 Next 5000 Next 10,000 Lincoln 1..70 net 1..70 not 1..65 net 1.11 net 1.11 net 1.11 net 1.11 net 1.2.5 net 1.00 net 1.00 net 1.00 net Omaha From tho foregoing ,you vrill note that the consur:lers in Grand Island are paying more for gas than the consumers in Kearney ,Has t ings, :Lincoln of Omaha. Your attention is further called to the fact that the iden.;.. tical Company which is selling gas in Grand Island is selling gas in Kearney and Hastings at a lower price. In the opinion of your Comraitte no good reason can b, shown why the people in Grand Island should be charged more for gas than the people in Hastings of Kearney. We furtb.er find an excellent reason why the gas rates in Grand Island .~"~.---'-'~.~__""'~_._...:'--. _,-"_~..--O ..- -~ ......... ~...C}.",...... '~~ -., . 446 ~,~ should be reduced to a lower level than i.n Hastings or Kearney, and that is,G:r>and Island is Ct much larger City than either of them.;lhile the r~lte cannot be reduced as low as that in Onaha 9I' Lincoln, we believe that the rate can fairly be reduced to ::a.50 net for Lbo fh'st 5000 and 01.40 for all above the fh"st 5000, with a lTIllll- l:lUr.l charge of (~l.oo per month instead of the present 50,5 per month. 2. 1uality Your Committee has investigated the r.latter of quality. 'Hhile the' City has no adequate 'Testing apparatus available to test either the B.T.D. content or the l')ressurel tbere 1l.ave been so many co~plaints made as to both the pressure and as to the quality of the gas, that your Committee believes that both the Cp.Hllity and pressure are belo'w standard. Your COELrnittee !"inds that the standard in Hastings and Kearney is 600 B.T.U.'s, in Omaha 560 and in Lincoln 550. Your Committee believes that the standard ShOl.1ld be at least that of Omaha, to-wit,560 :J.T.LT. Your Conmittee further believes that a standard water Dressure of not less thail. 2} inches nor more than 4 inches r:1ea~ured in a water tester should be adopted. Your Committee reCOi'lr:.londs that we try first of all to regulate the prices,quality and pressure of gas by an ordinance, fixing the price of ge:.s at ~;~l. 50 net for tb.e first 5000 and $1.40 net for all above 5000; that the minimum B.T.D. content be fixed at 560,tne Omaha content,and that the pressure be not less than 2}.rnmmr.ll'us. and not more than 4: inches. Your Committee, therefore, reconmends that the City Attorney be instructed to draft an Ordinance fixing the rates, quality and pressure of the gas as aforesaid, this Ordinance to go into effect as soon as possible. Hespect fully submit ted. John l\:nickrehr1, Jr. C.II.Justice, Chas.L.Haux, liIax J .Egge, COLIMITTEE ON WATER AND LIGHT. On motion of Knickrehr.1 the report was adppted. The Mayor Ulen submitted recol~lmendations as follows; The Mayor has cbmiidered the various renedies suggested for this situation. He believes that something must be done immediately to remedy the gas situation in tbis City. Irrespective of what remedy is taken ,he recommends the immediate purchase of satisfactory equipment for the purpose of testing the gas arid reco~rnends that this purchase be made immediately. Upon the receipt of this equipment ,he recoJIlInends that the City Engineer be instructed to test the gas in the City of Grand Island, both for B.T.U.content and for pressure,at least once a day for a period of sixt~ days,making such tests at different hours in order that an exact record may be taken of the quality and the pressure of gas in the City of Grand Islandjthat thereafter ,it shall be one of the duties of the City Engineer to make such test at least once a week on different dates and at different hours,keeping the dates and hours secret in order that ~ an exact check may be had of the quality and pressure of the gas. Your Mayor has considered carefully the matter of priceS.. Several suggestions have been made ,each of which he has carefully considered as follows; (a) A r1iunicipal1y owned Gas Plant. While MUllicipal ownership of the Light Plant has proved an unqualified success ,while our ownership of such Plant has forced the the Power COr.l pany to keep the prices charged for light and power down too. fair level,and while every reduction in the price of electricity in the City of Grand Island has been made gy the City Plant, he cannot recommend a new plant for .two reasons; First, there is a great deal of question but that gas will very shortly ibe superseded to a greater extent than at present by electricity; and Second, the establisP..ment of a new gas plant Vlould necessitate the tearing up of a large number of paved streets; and Third, the cost of a new plant would be prohibitive at the present time without the issuance of bondsand he does not reconmend the issue of bonds. (b) The condemnation and purchase of the old gas plant. This has been suggested, and while it might be practicable, the ~ayor cannot recommend it because it would necessitate the issuance of bonds,which he does not approve. and because the price ithe City would have to pay for the old plant, large parts of wqich are obsolete, the pipes of which have laid in the ~round form~ny years ,would probably be more i I. . 44'7 t~ .~ than its actual value. The matter of purchase would be further complicated by the fact that the gas company is no longer a local enterprise, but has been sold to Eastern power interests, has been capmtalized exteemely heavily , preferred stock has been issued to about the actual value of the plant, and there is quite a block of outstanding common stock which is in Eastern hands. So he does not believe that the old gas plant could be condemned and purchased by the City at anywhere near its fair value. Of course,we may be compelled to take this course, the iviayor recomnends the following as a suggested plan to see whether or not the same will work out. Of course, if a large amount of litigation develops and the power Company attempts to contest the gas rates, it might be well to resort to condemnation proceedings. So Your Mayor recommends the adoption of the Ordinance recolnmended by the Committee. L~oved by Falldorfthat the Clerk be instructed to advertise for bids for Gas Testing Equipnent as recommended by the Mayor,carried on roll call ,Rgge ,Eggers, Falldorf , Hm..l.x, Jus t ice , Knickrerilll,Michelson and Williams voting aye,nay none. Moved by Knickrehm that the property purchased of Henry J.Bartenbach be turned over to the Water,Light & Ice Committee, Carried. 7Qn motion of Falldorf the Water.Light & Ice Commissioner was author- ized to proceed at once to over-haul said property and prepare it for the making of Ice. · On motion of Falldorf the rlatter of putting in Kelly Wells,and pipes,..\( ete.for connecting up the same was referred to the Ffater,Light & Ice Conmittee with Power to Act. The Bond Committee reported finding the Bond of Kent Engineering Company covering their Contract for Boilers,Stokers and Auxiliary Equipment to be in proper form and the surety sufficient and on motion of Eggers ~he report was adopted and the Bond approved. 1~ichelson called attention to use of Office by the City Treasurer jointly with the Chief of Police.

Respectfully. L.G.Williams John Knickrehm,Jr., C.H.Justice Raux filed a m~nority report as follows; Grand Island,Neb.May 15th 1926. To the Mayor and Oouncil. As a Member of the Street and Alley Committee ,to whom was re- ferred the petition, asking this body to create a Paving District on Elm Street 1Jetween Anna Street and State Street and West to connect with t~e intersection of Eddy'Street and State Street, I beg leave to! submit the following minority report; I do not concur in the recommendation of the Committee for the following reas9ns; The tax r~te in the City is admitted to be high.Tba people are looki~g for a reduction rather than an increase. The next levy to be made in August will have to have included in its total the following new items; To take c~e of that portion of the purchase price of the plant of the G.

To the Honorable Mayor and ~1ty ~ouneil; -' Gentlemen; .' . We,your Committ~e on Streets and Alleys ,hereby wish to recommend that the ~yor and City 01erk be instructed to enter into contract with ithe Traill Paving'~o. for sheet asphalt on Paving Districlt No.r59. Respectfully L.C.Williams John Knickrehm,Jr., C.H.Justice Moved by Williams that the report be adopted and that the Mayor and City CleItk be instructed to enter into contract accordingly; On ro~l call Falldorf,Justice,Knickrehm and Williams voted aye'iEg~e,Eggers,Haux and Michelson voted nay, the vote being a tife the Mayor voted aye and declared the motion carried anq. the report adopted. r- " ~...' ~:~--~- ~-... . .j~. I 492 . opinion of the Sewer Committee will require approximately $250,000.00before it is finally completed ,all of which will have to be provided by direct levy in the next 8 years. I desire also to call the attention of this body to another matter which has a vital bearing on this question. There is a universally accepted rule, that a Special Assessment in excess of 25 per cent ~ of the value of a piece of property ,against which said Special . Assessment is made, is unwise and against good business principles. In a great many instances this would virtually amount to a con- fisication of the property. The individual owner of such prop- erty might spend any amount of his own money in the improvement of his prope~ty ,but the City is not justified in using the peo- ples money for such purpose . If we create. this Paving District and go on with the wOI'k the Tax Payers of the City will have to pay upwards of $30000.00 for inter sections,alleys,curb ect.for the Paving along the Senior High School, along the Platt School and along the City's voting place . on Elm street. I have not taken into consideration the cost of Paving along Pioneer Park,which we hope the County will assume, but towards which the City Tax Payers will have to pay their proportionate share . I might add, that the cost per lot to the individual on a 50 foot basis of Paving is over $1200.00 and on a 36 foot basis $900.00 to be divided on a basis of 70 and 30 per cent . I would therefore recommend that the prayer of the petition- ers be denied or that action on this petition be deferred until the City is in better position to carryon the work. Respectfully Submitted. Chas.L.Haux. Moved by Ha~ that the minority report be adopted ;lost on roll call,Eggee and-Raux voted aye,Eggers,Falldorf,Justice,KniCkrehm, Michelson and Williams voted nay.

Upon the evidence submitted that. these three (3) names represented only two (2) persons,thus changing the number of property owners <Df record title from sixty seven (67) to sixty-six (66). The Cornmi t tee carefully weighed all the other content Ions of B.J.Cunningharn,but find that these contentions have no bearing in the case. 7Je further find that the protest of EnmaPrahl.'Estate signed by the Grand Island Loan and Trust Company ,G.E.Grundy Sect.

In that Decre~ was onbodied a sPipula.tion entered into by the paX'tL~s to said $uit in February,1926,wherein it was provided. that the City should ~t once proceed with the erection of a Sewage System extendingi from the mouth of the present Storm Sewer at Plum and Sutherland streets,rlmning directly East and emptying into Wood River.It is!not the intention of the City to use that ditch for anything but! a drqinage ditch until the f1j.nds of the City per nit the covering! of saidditch,as it is proposed to connect the sana with the pr~sent Disposal Plant ,and all the offensive matter will be removed ~t said Disposal Flant and the water running through said newiSevrer System ,draining into Wood River,'will be no r.lOre offensive u'ilid no more objectionable than the water naturally runninQ in said Woood River.Your Committee does not believe tl~t said 7f3:ter willlbe a nuisance ,nor will the Courts declare the construction andioperation of said new Sewer S,ystem to be such a nuisance. Your Committe$ realizes that one of the great problems in Grand Island for! the past ten years has been the proper disposal 0 of sewerage in t~is City and preceding administrations have been confronted withlvarious solutions. Some six years ago the Dis- posal Plant was Ibuilt and a Storm Sewer System put in without, however,providin& for an adequate outlet.
