iJ2iJW!3 BB MwE&wi THE COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 19 14 EVENING EDITION. SSshSSSi MAYOR SIMPSON OF NORTH BEND OUTLINES POLICY Pony Inlot. would recommend Mint tho sidewalks on lioth sides of Vir ginia street bo 14 feet In width. I wond also recnm.tn ml thnt na soon ns Shorldnn nvonuo Is graded and the fills hnvo had a siifflclont tlmo In which to settle, thnt this street be hard surfaced from tho north lino of Washington street to tho north end of tho street, and that the sldewnlks on onch sldo of the street be 1 1 feet In width. Ktm't to Marshlleld. In the nnmml message of tho Mayor of Marshfiold to tho City Council of that city, he recommended tho open ing of olio of soveral streets from Commercial avenue through I'crhnm Park to Fcrndnle. As the continua tion of Sherman avenue south toward Marshflold connects with Eleventh street in Marshlleld. I would recom mend that a committee bo appointed to Intercede with the Marshlleld City Council to decide upon the opening of Klevonth street. I would further recommend thnt ns soon ns tho en tanglements In tho Kinney properties are adjusted, that stops ho taken by tho City Council of North Hend to Interest tho City Council of Marsh field In opening up Shcrmnn avenue in North Ilcnd and Eleventh street North In Mnrshllcld. if this can be dono, It will provide practically a north and south Btreet from Com mercial street in Mnrshllcld to the husluosB center of North Ilond, and would bo practically a continuation of Sherman nvcntio from North Hend to tho Junction of Klevonth street and Commercial street In tho City of Marshllold. I am informed by engi neers that a good grndo can bo pro cured over tho entire length of this street. 1'or Clly Hull. It is very ovldont to tho momborp of tho City Council that the present city hnll is iiolthor a credit to tho city In appearance or up to tho stand ard of necessity. Tho tlmo hns come when tho city must hnvo n suitable building for tho enro of tho firc flghtlug apparatus, and one In which enn bo constructed a fire-proof vault for tho caro and snfo keeping of Its records, plats, profiles, plans, specifi cations, etc., one In which suitable offices can bo provided for tho city engineer, recorder nnd police depart ment, and one In which cnu ho cou nlrueted a suitable Jail. At tho time of tho IsHtianco of bonds against the city of North Ilond, Impartial men npprnlsed tho property of tho city of North Hend iih being worth ?1 a.r.OO. which property comprises tho follow ing: Lot C in mock 20, upon which now stands tho present city ball, tho north 20 feet of Lot fi. lots 0, 7, 20, 21, 22 and 2:i In Ulock IS, which tire now used ns an approach from Sher man nvonuo to tho waterfront road ' way leading to tho Old Town mill. With tho rogrndlng of Sl.orinnn nvo iiiio nnd Florida nvonuo this approach will not bo necessary, and as the prosont city hall Is not ndequnto to tho needs of tho city, I would recom mend thnt if It bo pnsBihlo the above roforred to property bo sold by the city of North Hend at tho appraised vnluntlnnB, or nt ns much greater flguro ns can be ohtuiuod, uud that this sum, which should not In any ease, bo loss than $111,500, bo used ns tho nucleus of a fund for tho con struction of n prcBontnblo city hnll which will moot tho presont require ments of tho city. I would suggest thnt this building bo built with the mnln body of tho building In tho cen ter, allowing a inter construction nnd nddltlnn of two wings, ono on tho north nnd ono on the south of tlio central building. Those two wings will hike enro of the addltlonnl needs of tho city In tho yenrs to come. 1 would recommend thnt this now city hnll bo locnted and constructed In prepared n map or plat, showing my recommendations In regard to tho Improvement of this strip of land. I would recommend that the present ( city whnrf bo nnrrowed up to CO feet , in width, nnd thnt Instead of this be ing tho city wtinrf It bo used for street purposes. I would recommend thnt Washington, Virginia and California tjinrifcf lt ntftniiiliiil 1rt nnn, i n .l.n ' proposed now harbor lino and that duo east of tho CO foot street just suggested, tlors of lots bo platted be tween Washington and Virginia, and Virglnln nnd California, each lot with a GO foo frontage, 8.1.8 foot In depth, nnd that adjoining and due east of these lots i street 80 feet In width bo constructed, and thnt adjoining nnd duo cast of th's street a city 'wharf bo constructed 80 feet in width. 1080 feet long, from tho south line of Washington street to tho north lino of California Btreet. I would also recommend thnt reservation bo mndo on tins wnarf for two warehouses, each CO feet wide and 400 feet long, 11"- east lino of tho wnrohouso to bo 20 feet west of tho proposed now hnrbor lino, or fnco of the proposed dock. I would also recommend that tho first warohouse, 00x400 foot, be tween Virginia and California streets, bo constructed t onco. It will bo seen from the plat that such an ar rangement of tho city's property will create 1C lots 00x83.8, and I would recommend thnt theso lots ho Im mediately placed upon tho mnrkct nt nn nverngo soiling price of $2500 onch. From the snlo of Uicbo lots tho city would rcnllzo $10,000, and I would recommend thnt this money bo expended by tho city In tho con struction of tho whnrf and wnrohouso as shown on tho plat nnd In extending Washington, Virginia nnd Cnllfornln 3treot from the front of tho .esont dock to tho proposed now hnrbor lino or fnco of tho proposed now dock. If elthor I or tho Simpson Lumber com pany hnvo nny title or clnlm in nnd to this property, wo will cheorfully qultclnlm tho sanio to tho city. Such nn improvement of tho city front vould plnco tho city entirely In con trol of nil tho revenues received from ho same, which would Includo 20 ponts por ton for nil freight Council socuro ri aultablo dumping ground for garbago and wnsto of nil kinds, and thnt nn ordinance bo passed remilrlng nil garbage, refuso and waste to bo deposited on this dumping ground, and that this dump ing ground bo locnted far enough nwny from tho city so as to keop It from becoming a nuisance. Flro Protection. I would recommend thnt tho city furnish the volunteer flro depart ment with ns much necessary appar atus as possible, and ns Is required by thnt department for tho proper protection of property from loss by flro. I will nlso recommend thnt fire limits bo established with proper building restrictions within theso limits, and that nn electricnl wiring ordlnnnco bo passed Immediately re quiring nil olectrlcnl wiring to ho instnlled In nccordnnco with tho un derwriters' rules nnd Bpcclflcntlons. I would nlso recommend that a build ing Inspector bo appointed who shnll also net ns wiring Inspector, nnd thnt his salnry bo proportioned nc cordlng to tho nmount of work re quired of him. In order to safeguard tho public health, I would recommend thnt a plumbing ordinance bo passed nnd thnt a plumbing inspector bo ap pointed. I see no renson why ono liinn rnnnot occupy tho position of building, wiring and plumbing in sector. I would suggest thnt the Council seo thnt nil of tho improved streets hnvo sidewalks properly laid. I would recomniond that w sot of rules and regulations for tho gov erning of tho police department bo Immediately prepared, and that the pollco force of tho city bo forced to llvo up to tho same. I would recommend thnt no nddi tlonnl licenses for snloons bo grnnt od for tho presont, nnd thnt tho li censes for tho snmo remnln nt tho present figure, $800 por yenr. Clty'H Finance. Hy referring to tho nnnunl stnto ment of tho Recorder of tho city of North Hend for tho yenr 1013. it will bo scon thnt tho total expen diture of tho city for tho yenr amounted to $20,180.85. Tho two largest Items of this expenditure woro tho following: Btreet Improve ments, $7340.15; sewors, $5805. 22; or n total of $13,211.37.

I would reconimond thnt tho city continue to conrrlhuto $50 per month toward the Bupport of tho North Hend Concert Hand, provided the band furnishes tho peoplo of tho city with eccaslonnl fro public concerts. I would recommend that- tho city bo very llboral in its policy of supply ing ndequnto nnd propor Btreot light ing for nil portions of tho city, par ticularly tho outlying nnd somowhnt Innccosslblo portions of tho city with in rensonublo hounds. I would par ticularly recoininoiid thnt iib booh ns Shormnn nvonuo Is paved, tho City Council uso thler best ondenvors to porsunde the property holders to place cluster lights along thoso streets nnd abandon tho prosont arc lights. I would recommend thnt tho hnuis of duty of tho pollco forco of tho city of North Ilond bo reduced to eight hours per dny, nnd thnt nn nddltlonnl pollco officer bo" em ployed at a salary or $70 por month.

It was tho Intention of tho Council to assess this sowor cost to ono of tho Bowor districts which It proposed to form, and this money should thoreforo bo returned to tho city trnsury. Theso two ItoniB will not nppoar In tho oxpon dlturo of tho city for tho yoar 1014.
