SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, November 16, 1955 Council Authorizes Water Mains; Calls For Bids on Project Ordinances calling for bids and authorizing construction of water mains in the recently annexed Laurelhurst addition were adopt ed by the Medford city council last night. A six inch water main will be installed on Stevens St., from Oregon Terrace to Crater Lake ave., and four inch mains will be installed on Marie, Effie, Bessie and Pearl sts. between Sahng ave. and Stevens St. A dead-end 'six inch main on Mary st. will be extended to Stevens st. . To Install Hydranls In addition, seven fire hy drants will be installed provid ing the area with adequate wa ter service and fire protection. Many residences in the area have no water facilities other than pumps, and several residents own temporary pipes, which will be eliminated. The estimated cost per front foot to property owners is $2.10 Property owners representing 52.3 per cent of the front foot age signed petitions requesting the service, which was recom mended by the water commis sion. The council also adopted an ordinance amending present or dinances to permit installation of bicycle racks and bicycle par king on city street parking strips, subject to the approval of the county. A request from St. Mary's school to install bicycle parking rack in the parking strip on Ivy st. near 11th st. was referred to City Manager Robert Duff and Public Works Director V e r n Thorpe. A report of proposed specifications will be submitted to the council later for approval. Recommends Action Mayor Earl Miller recommend ed action on the request be post poned until next meeting to give residents living in the area an opportunity to present rea sons for objecting. He pointed out that some residents object, and he believed they should be heard. A motion to delay action was defeated by the council 3-2, and the ordinance amending present ordinances to permit bicycle racks in parking zones was ad opted 3-2. Both Jimmy Dunlevy and Frank Dorigan favored the am endment, pointing out a bicycle rack will provide an orderly place where bicycles presently are being piled up in the park ing zone. They pointed out also that limited ground space at the school makes parking strip of bicycles desirable. An ordinance was adopted re conveying property back to Wil liam C. and Frank L. Earhart along Bear creek south of the city limits. The land was convey ed to the city in 1940 with pro visions certain improvements would be made by WPA assis tance. The WPA program ended shortly thereafter, and provis ions were not carried out be cause the city had no finances for a flood control project. Alley Vacated Other ordinances adopted va cated an alley in the, Cromwell addition, and accepting J. C. Compton company work on Ham ilton st. and East Jackson st. paving projects. The council continued hear ings on annexation of California Pacific Utilities property on Groveland ave. and on Benton Smith and Odell Larson lots at Murray and Columbus ave. be cause titles have not been re solved. The council instructed City At torney Frank Farrell to prepare an ordinance calling for a hear ing on a- request -from Mr. and Mrs. James S. Winslow, 349 Sal ing st., for a change of setback to construct a carport. The planning commission rec ommendations were accepted by the council. Everyone's Rushing to Gobble Up Savings at Newberry's!
