Denherder is moving equip ment for the job from East Main steet, where preliminary work on widening the street has been completed. Contractors have also started paving of Murray street from Plum to Hamilton streets, a pro ject which was carried over by the city from last year because of the inadvisability of starting paving work during winter months. 16 Projects Contracted The city now has 16 street im provement projects contracted, including 11 which were award ed this year, three carried over from 1951 and the two widening jobs. Approximately 18,035 lin eal feet of street is involved. In addition, another 10 pro jects wilt probably be contracted for at the next regular meeting of the city eouncii. Bids have been received on these projects, all of which involve street pav ing. Engineer's estimates on the 10 projpets total an amount in excess of $100,000. The city has also received pe titions for 25 other street and alley paving jobs. Plans are now being prepared for the projects and they are awaiting contracts. Coal is consumed In greater tonnage than any other commod ity produced by man. authorities deem the defendant rehabilitated. District Attorney Paul Havi- land recommended to the court that the defendant be sentenced to one year "because his condi tion was ascertained to be con tinuous for a long period of time."
