Ithaca Street
Upon order of the Ynyor, the Comron Council wa,G
called for a Specia.l meeting to be present, at this meF-tin-
Railway Co.
of the Board to hear consideration and discub,iion of
Resurfacing
negotiations, with the Ithaca. Street Railwaay Company
State St.
relative to the proposed resurfacing of State Street with
particular reference to single tracking from. east of
Aurora Street to west of Albany Street.
Mr. ;;herma,n Peer and t. r. Donald Stewart vrer'e
present for the Street Railway Company and agreed to bring
the tracks, wherever they had settled, up to the heretofore
established r.;radc but objected to raising the e'n'tire
trackage to a new and higher grade to accomodate the
resurfacing, and also objected to a single track, c- lairaing
that a proper schedule thereon could not be maintained.
40
Com dssioner Sawdon stated that according to
Yr. Bean's report, which they must accept as impartial
and authentic, it would be impracticable to
single track State Strcet and imposs4ble to maintain
a. proper schedule ther.eon,and he therefore felt that
it would be unwise for the Board to insist on a
single track.
By Commissioner Sawdon :seconded by Com. Johnson:
RESOLVED: that the Board hereby waives
their request for the single tracking of State St.

Superintendent the City constructed some pilinE,;
to protect this Viand other property or. the
"Island ", but that since that time the action
of the ice in winter had broker, the piles arid
the bank has been gradually washed away. It
was estimated that about 20 feet had been
washed away in the past year or two. Attorney
Heath ruled that there was no legal responsi-
bility, but suggested that there property
owners should have the same consideration and
protection as those along, the banks of the
other Creeks.

Creek Committee and the City Engineer to
investigate and report with recorLr.endation
at the next meeting.

they could to have Cliff Street and State Street opened
at least for the proposed Tour of Inspection durin:v the
Odd Fellows Convention next Tuesday. The Clerk was
directed to reply that the Board would co- operate in every
way possible but that it would be quite impossible to alloy
traffic through Cliff Street. This brought trs a general
discussion about the paving- projects, with particular ref-
erence to the very slow and unsatisfactory way in which the
street car compares had done their share of the work and the
methods used. It was further pointed out that the.' claimed
to be l:.nable, at this time, to remove the laicz'h tension pole
line on the I.orth side of E.State Street above Aururw Street,
and it would therefore be ii=, ossible to this section
before the proposed paving.
Moved by Conu-n. Sawdon; Secon- JeO by CoaDr. .Johnson:
RESOLVED, that the paving- of E.State Street be discontinued
at the Esat side of the Aurora Street intersection; due to
the fat that the Ithaca Rail a r Inc. arc .%n,-: plc to remove

them and that it seemed impossible to obtaxthe required
width of street but suggested that he take the matter up

desire, viz.,a more permanent street surface.

Cemetery, and that the small percentage of water which
ran through his property from within the City originated
outside in the Village of Cayuga Heights, and ran into the

In reporting with the Committee on Fire Insurance
Fire Chief Reilly stated that the Board of Fire Commissioners
were thoroughly in accord with the plan to carry the City
Fire Insurance on a schedule form, and were willing to

Mr. Robert H. Treman,
Chairman, Stewart Park Commission,
Ithaca, N.Y.
My dear Mr. Treman :-
I duly received your favor of Dec. 18th further on subject
of your verbal inquiry some weeks ago about the old right -of -way of
the Cayuga & Susquehanna R.R. on Lake Avenue, north of Casoadilla
Creek, Ithaca, and I would say that, after consultation with our
Legal Dept., the consensus of opinion, in a friendly way, is that
our Company will make no definite claim to the land in question and,
therefore, we do not consider that any aotion on the part of the
Railroad Company is necessary to enable the City to use property as
part of the City Park System.
Very truly yours,
Y,rL:oea
