Not only that, but there are five families living on the s'reet who have chilj en golryg to school that muct either take their chllJren out of school or move to some other loca tion. The property owners have p3 tltloned for the Improvement of the street, and are willing to pay the aa- sessment, but the common council Is not able to grant their request on ac count of having about reached Its limit of indebtedness.
