Definite approval or the plans for
the improvement of Railroad avenue
has established this project as the
next municipal program to be under
taken. The council at their regular
meeting, adopted the specifications
for the street as made out by the en
gineer, but no definite decision as to
the date for the commencement of
work has been reached.
It is probable that as soon as the
weather improves so that construc
tion' can go on unhampered, bids will
be advertised for. It is understood
that negotiations are still pending
with the Southern Pacific Railroad
company, which will be called on to
bear a large part of the expense of
the improvement. It is probable that
some modifications in the recent or
der of the Public Service Commission
regarding the improvement of the de
pot here will be allowed as the result
of their willingness to aid in the
street improvement work. '
