ASTORIA, OREGON, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1904. S f S I 1 I I i t s ; s IGNORE THE PERMIT LAW Proptrty Owners Neglect to Se- cure Permission to MaKe lm f provements In the Oty ORDINANCE TO BE INFORCED Franklin Avenue Is tn Need of Itepair Beyond the Clatsop i Mills and Council Will Be. t gin Work lit Once. Informal discussion occupied tht at tention of the members of the council at lust night's session. Mr. Hansen pointed out that property owners had not been complying with the build In permit law. He said that only 1? permits had been issued by him, and he wanted to know if the chief of po lice couldn't be instructed to see that the ordinance was lived up to. Mr. Belland said that he had talked with many persons who were not aware of the existence of the law, and who clung to the belief that they could build on their own property without any per mit from the city. Some of these per sons had even threatened to stand suit, and were informed by Mr, Belland that the. city was doubtless ready to back up Us law. , Mr. Belland also express ed the opinion that the ordinance was defective in its. most important phase, in that it did not require property owners to specify the coat of the im provement No definite action was taken last evening, but the council evidently means to enforce the law. , The matter of the Improvement of Franklin avenue from the Clatsop mills east was called up by Mr. Burns, chair man of the street committee. He said the street was in dangerous condition and that It was now past repair work. It appears that the thoroughfare Is be low grade, and that to make It con nect properly it would be necessary to raise it to the grade of Commercial street Mr. Burns said a substantial improvement would be necessary, for the nature of the ground there was such that posts would not suffice. He favored a piling foundation. It will be necessary to repair this street for a distance of eight blocks and the work will entail a large expenditure. At the next meeting of the council Mr. Burns will bring in a resolution for the Im provement As the street is very gen erally used, the Improvement must be made rapidly. Mr. Burns thought the council ought to take some action looking to Im provement of the crossing at Grand avenue and Ninth street This cross ing was not Included in the ordinance providing for repair of Ninth street The crossing is In very bad condition, but the street otherwise Is newly Improv ed and In first-class shape. Mr. Bel land believed the repair should be made at the expense of the property. The matter will be called up for de cision at the next session. Street Superintendent Kearney stated that the rock crusher is about to go out of commission and advised the council to lay in a supply of rock while It was possible to secure one. Bock Is now being used on Exchange street, a recent improvement, with ex cellent results. Ordinances were passed under sus pension of the rules to accept the im provement of Duane street from Six teenth to Seventeenth, and Commer cial from Fourteenth to Sixteenth. Or diuanceaio pa N. Clijiton 4 Son thj last-named Improvement were Intro duced and will be passed at the nxt meeting. SCHEME FOR NEW PARTY. Populist Chairman Has Issued Call for Msetinn at Chioage, Chicago, Nov. 11.
