Should See That Central School Property
Is Sold and Open Up Ninth Street
We, the undersigned residents and taxpayers of the City of Klamath Falls, Ore.,
hereby wish to express our preference in the matter of the disposal of the Central
school property at Ninth and Main streets.
Being familiar with the plan of the Board of Directors of School District No. 1
to dispose of this school site as a whole, reserving the East and West alley and a 60
foot strip of land for Ninth street through said property we wish to assure the School
Board of our co-operation in the disposal o f this property under this plan.
We believe such a plan would be advantageous to the interests of the public. We
also believe this plan would permit of the construction of the more substantial type
of business buildings, resulting in increased taxable property in this vicinity of" the
city.
To dispose of a strip of land 60 feet in width fronting Main street, without pro
vision for the opening of Ninth street, as proposed in the Evening Herald on May 18,
would, in our opinion, seriously depreciate the value of the remaining'portion of this
site, as weli as other property in the vicinity. Apparently only a cheap class of
buildings could be erected on such a narrow strip of land on Main street and is not
desirable from the standpoint of the future growth of Klamath Fallsi
We believe the p!an proposed in the Evening Herald of May 18 is highly im
practicable and we hereby pledge our co-operation and support to the School Board
in selling the school site as advertised, provided, of course, a reasonable bid for the
property is submitted. ' .
We wish to express our confidence in the School Board for carrying out pre
election promises in connection with the recent School Board election.
