April 20 , 19 36 by Town Board Groton , New York , Gentlemen: The Board of Education of the McLean Central. School District t respectfully petitions the Town Board of Groton to take the action necessary to secure approval of. the County Board of Supervisors for the construction of a sidewalk between the central school builair_g and the village square at McLean. The following Facts are submitted as a basis for the petition: 1 . There is no sidewalk between the central school building and and the village square , a distance of approximately 950 feet . Approximately 150 pupils attending school and many adults attend- ing community meetings at the central school are obliged to walk in the county highway at the risk of life and limb . �• 2 . The State Highway Law provides a means for obtaining the construction of sidewalks along an improved county road at public expense . (See copy of law attached) f 3. The engineer and architect of the 'Tompkins County Development 1 Association have made a survey of the sidewalk possibilities and 1 find that a five foot concrete walk and a, foot bridge over Fall I Creek can be built for approximatly 46247 .46 . A work relief r project would meet approximately 41775 .80 , or more than 50 fo of this cost . The balance of V1471 .66 would be paid by the Town and County, 35% or approximately §515 ,08 by the Town , and 65% or approximately 4956 .58 by the County, t e, 3 . 4. McLean is one of the few dommunities of the county that has not yet had a public work relief project under either the i r3; Temporary Emergency Relief Administration or the Works Progress Administration. l C. In view of the above statements the Board of Education of the J1 McLean central School District petitions the Town Board of the Town of Groton , County of Tompkins to take the action necessary to bring this matter to the Oounty Boara of aupervisore for eor_eiaeratlon.

Sidewalks along imjEoved state and county hi wa s. Walks or paths for pedestrians may be constructed by a county along any improved state or county high» way or along a pert thereof in any town of the county, pursuant to the per ov i s i ons of this section. The request for any such walk or path shall be made by the town board, b;T resolution to that effect, a copy of which shall be certified to the board of �� wapervisors. Unless the board of supervisors shall determine by resolution that such walk or path shall not be constructed, it shall, by resolution, direct the county superintendent of highways to prepare and submit to the board an estimate of the pro- bable cost of such work, together with a general outline plan thereof setting forth the type, material and width of the proposed walk or path, and also kts location, specifying the highway, the beginning and terminal points of the walk or path and its distance laterally from the improved roadway. Upon receipt of such plan, the board of supervisors, by resolution, may determine that such walk or path shall be constructed, in accordance with such plan, subject to the approval of the plan, and consent that the walk or path be constructed by the superintendent of public works. The county superintendent of highways shall submit such plan to the superin. tendent of public works, together with a copy of such resolution, to be furnished by the clerk of the board. If the superintendent of public works shall consent to the construction of a walk or path along the course indicated and shall approve such plan, ' he shall certify such action to the board of supervisors, and the board of supervisors shall then appropriate and make available for such work the necessary moneys therefor, from county funds. The superintendent of public works, h6wever, may modify such plan andcertify in like manner the changes made by him therein. In that case, the board of supervisors shall not be required to direct the construction of such walk or path ov moneys th r f r until it shall have approved of such changes. If the fore- . or provide nays e e o ppY' � 9oing provision of this section shall have been complied with, the work of such con- struction shall proceed under the direction of the county superintendent of highways. He may perform such work by contract, or partly by contract and partly by the employ- � vent of labor, purchase of material and the use of any necessary machinery owned or rented by the county. Upon the completion of such work, the total cost thereof shall '. be reported by the superintendent of highways to the board of supervisors. Thirty- ►te five per centum of the cost of such work shall be reimbursed to the county by the town requesting the improvement, and a tax therefor shall be levied upon the taxable property of the town. However, if county moneys are not available for meeting the appropriation made by the board of supervisors or if the town board of the town shall elect to borrow on the faith and credit of the town the amount of its share of the C. expense of such work, county or town obligations, as the case may be, may be issued T1 as provided in section one hundred and forty-two of this chapter, the same as if such work pertained to the construction of a county highway. Any moneys so raised by the town shall be paid into the county treasury. T� No such walk or path shall be constructed within the right of way of a state or county highway, unless with the approval of the superintendent of public works. Necessary rights of way for any such sidewalk or path shall be acquired by the county in the same manner as rights of way are acquired for state and county highways as provided in this chapter. The cost of any such right of way shall be paid in the first instance by the county from any county moneys available and thirty-five per centum of the cost cj shall be a charge upon the town to be raised by tax as a part of the improvement. l J pp u � e ....,.d:•..e.Yrk=.c:..iNSvrw..wwi-rwrr..r--•_'-•.-. , 46 1..7 iliutcs of t alc a �cca.Rl. .

The next j:ro ,ject to be examined was the new road past the 'Vlest Grc,ton Cemetary . T'_rie Town Superintendant took. the Board to the road leadi i- by Mr . Fred Bossard' s place a j)iece of road that should be made more pac—cable ., from the Bossard. road over the Pierson road north to the To ;in line . Nr ,_alZ_vcle explained to the Board that he had hired the roadsides mowed at a cosy of 275 .00 and felt th-t it .:•ould be advisable to purcl-iaae a tractor with power tal;e off and mo-,,�in,:,; knives for this t;urpo^e if it could be purchased at a low fi6' ure . This ,,,,as debated fcr a time but no action as re,_"ard purch^ se -.,as taken. The Board then ,;gent to the new constructicn south of Benson' s corners and observed the ne-;rly purchased "�i-railbuilder" or bull dozer in action. It was the opinion of aiembers of t"le Board that this machine fills a definite need in our town equipment and enables the Town Superintendant to accomplish a much E:y: ater prof ra.rri of buildinE. than could be attempted ..ithout it . It ;gas noticed that the sharp banks on the sides of cuts could be moved back and graded to make snow removal less difficult . All the present road buildin[; leas been stone base and should g -ve. a longer Neriod of service t' a.n the r--.vel base . The Loard then i.Droceeded over }..he County road. through Peru to the corner of the Salt .road. Then north on t'-,.e Salt roa.�_ where the Town Superiritendant had done considerable v.,rork and east bast the Ballard farm B: a and Reniff cider mills to Mci.ean, ,•ihere dinner v,,as h- d. In the afternoon, the Board went out the road past the mill and Stevens place to Mr , Alwin Eberhard' s corner on the Cortland Road and over the , LaFayette School house road past i:_r .
