PUBLIC SERVICE COM.
MEETS AT BAY CITY
The Oregon public service com
mission held a hearing at Bay City
one day last week acting upon a pe
tition by the S. P. Co. to close one or
more crossings over the Southern
Pacific right of way on Seattle ave
nue. The commission took testimony
in the matter. The city took the posi
tion that damage would be done to
the town, and the mayor and city
council were present in force, and op
posed the petition.
The highway
travel now has to make two crossings
of the railway in order to get back
on the main highway a block away.
It is understood that the theatre and
a part of the big hotel are on the
road right of way, and if the lower
crossings are abandoned as prayed
for by the S. P. Co. those buildings
would have to be removed. The S. P.
in its petition, however, says if the
alleged hazardous crossings are aban
doned as a highway, it will grant an
easement of right of way 27 feet in
width on the upper part of its proper
ty which would give the state high
way room to build to its northern
connection without disturbing the
buildings.
Engineer Clark of the state high
way and assistant attorney general
for the highway department were
present, also the State public service
commission, Paul Ferrins, attorney
for the S. P. Co., and district en
gineer Benjamin for the S. P. Co.
The public service committee took the
testimony and will render its decision
later.
