problem of improving certain streets in our City, which,]:fe, deemed to be of vital importance to everyone
in our COIllllIjIIlity. I;>ur desire to accomplish these impolltant steps has always been tempered by the problem
of finance. It was this latter problem, therefore, that has caused, us to suggest certain procedures,
so to speak, in order that the most important items could be completed in due course.
. The first of, these projects w~ proposed, as Wll all know, was the paving of cert;rl.n of our arterial
streets. They involved a more or less complicated method of financing, but with diligent work on the
part 0+ everyone connected with the project and the fine support of our citizens at the polls, this major
I project is now an accomplished fact. I
I ~e
We now come to/second and probabl,y the last major undertaking as we see it at this time and that is
the iJpprovement of certain ,other arterials .which we deem to be of I'qu,.:I. importance to our first project I
and was onlJ' considered secondary in order th"t proper financi;ll methods could.b e arranged.
We refer namel,y to (A) a arterial highwaor known locall,y as the Tumwater Road, connecting )larine
Drive, in the vicinity of Cedlir Street, with J;.auridsen Boulevard, in the.vicidt;r of "A" Street. Pt'oposed
road to be graded according 1;0 the standat'ds, of our arterials, namel,y forty feet wide..
(B) The improvement of Marine Drive, also an arterial, by grading, filling and paving with Portland
Cement Concrete from "A" Street ;;esterly past the Fibreboat'd Products, Inc. and the Crown Zellerbach
Corporation to a terminus on Ediz Hook at the easterl,y end of. the Crown. Zellet'bach log dump and oil
storage tank fal'lllo
(c) The City's portion of the ~e~e to make a hydraulic fill in the area bounded by Valley Street
on the west am Oak Street on ~e east, First Street on.~e south and the Milwaukee Bailroad on the north,
thereby 'allowing Front Street to be extended which will go a long waor tOl<ard relieving the conjestion of
traffic in our business ,area.
(D) The installation of a culvert in Peabod,y Guldh, i~ the vicinity of Fifth and Albert St;eets,
in order that sometime .in the future, Fifth Street ~ be produced t,hrough from Peabod,y Street east.
. . !'
We have given the financial problem involv,ed in this projec;t exhaustive st~ and we propose that
the City Council initiate by resolution an enlarged improvement district, covering practimlJ;y the entire
area of ourCity, extending roughly from I'M" street on the west to the eastern City limits and from the
Iwater front to Laurj,dson Boulevard. The .method of assessment we propose is, si milar to an enlarged
district ct'eated in our City in 1924, that is to say, a certain portion of the cost be assessed against
'the abutting property, a portion against business property, a portion against industrial property am
'a general blanket assessment over the entire t'esiderrtial area. B;y further stud,y, we are sure you will find
jthe above is the onlJ' financial solution to our problem which will not become a burden on anyone. Our
proposal, we feel; will spread the cost to such anextent that .no one individual will be und~ penalized
'and we further feel that these proposed improvements are of equal benefit to eveI70ne in our collllllUnity.
I .
,It mis moved by Councilman Wolf'e that a resolution tixing date of hearing fro the improvements be prepared

The Planning Commission filed report of finding as follcws:
I CHERRY STREET O~G:
After considerable discussion, it was pointed out that, CherI7 Street, in this area, is in a first class
residential district; the type of pavement on the street does not lend itself to heavy traffic; that the
l:-oadw~s not an arterial, having a width of only thirty feet; and, in the opinion of your Planning
Commission, if this wequest were pursued, it would ,only have a tendency to invitetraffice w!1ich would be a
jmistake; furthennore, the proposed entrance on Highway 101 would be a hazard. It was therefore the
opinion of the Planning Commission that we recoImneoo the request be denied,
I WHEELER HARD'....ARE ~UEST FOR LOT TRADE:
On the mole, the Planning Commission was not opposed.to this exchange.. Certain things were pointed out,
however, which we feel should be examined further befot'e a decision is reached. They are as follows:
(A) Consider relative costs of propesed improvement of Oak, Railroad and Laurel ,.treets. It was felt
assessments on Lot 6 would be greater than Lot 4. (B) The value of the location ft'om a business standpoint
that is to say, the distance of these respective lots ft'am Front & Laurel Streets which, in this case,
should be considered developed. (C) Drainage. It was pointed out. Lot 4 is drained while Lot 6 is not.
(D) It was pointed out, the 11'heeler people now use Lot 6 as a parking lot whi-ch is 150 feet removed. If
they were to acquire Lot 4, their parking lot would be adjacent to the present building, thua adding
a.dditional value to them. (E) Value of the presllIlt building would be enhanced with ownership of adjacent
iot. It was felt, by the members of the Planning Commission, that the above and other matters should be
studied further before a decision is reached.
