Mr. J. Sikes of Palmway Street stated it was unfair to the present property
ovmers to have to pay, as several streets in the City have been paved at no
cost to the abutting property owners, and Mayor Shaeffers predecessor had
promised to pave Palmway, but he was not infavor of paying for" it when other
streets had been paved free. This was discussed and again Mayor Shaeffer
pointed out the Legislature at the last session granted the Cities the right
to assess for these improvements and place a lein against the property, but
the City did not have any intention to do this as the cost of this paving
was so little I am sure all could pay their share. This is the only way
this Council vall handle it.
Councilman Armstrong stated he had about 25 miles of streets in his district
that wanted their streets paved and this viaS impossible.
The reporters were instructed to place a notice in the papers advertising
the round table discussion for property owners on Flagler Avenue and Rhode
Island Avenue at 7:30 Wednesday Evening, March 9th.
There being no further business Councilman Smith moved we do now adjourn,
seconded by Councilman Seng and by vote CJillRIED.
