Inasmuch as <br />;;the canopies were found to comply with requirements in projection and height, the Board <br />approved the proposed remodeling, including that of the vertical sign at the Granada <br />';Theatre. <br />The Board next examined and approved the Revised Plat of Broadmoor, Third Section, <br />• land protective covenants thereto. <br />i The Board then examined a remonstrance filed in opposition to petition of February <br />i16th, calling for the concrete -paving of alley between Adams and Wilber Streets, <br />;;and rescinded all previous action in this matter. j <br />The Board then took up the matter of quotations received to provide awnings for: <br />1the south windows of the offices of the City Clerk, the Board, the Press Room, the <br />Engineering Department and City Planning Commission. All quotations were examined and <br />,.the Board appointed a committee of two, the Controller and the Clerk of the Board to <br />lselect the awnings to be installed. <br />In the matter of petition requesting installati_Qn of a traffic signal at the <br />Ii intersection of Prairie Avenue and Olive Street, the Board took note of, its referral to. <br />' <br />,:the District Engineer of the Indiana State Highway Department, and directed the Clerk <br />to inform the petitioners accordingly. <br />i <br />I <br />STREET DEPARTMENT: <br />Street Commissioner, H. M. Tomlinson, being present, took up with the Board his <br />jjdepartmentIs need for another truck and dumpster. Funds having been appropriated to <br />.provide this equipment, the Board granted approval and directed the Clerk to proceed <br />with the required legal advertising. <br />Commissioner Tomlinson then brought to the Board's attention the need for installa- <br />tion of two man -holes on Sherman Avenue, between Van Buren Street and California Avenue <br />half way between the present existing manholes, and between California and Vassar Avenues,:, <br />:half -way between the present existing manholes, inasmuch as the distance between man- <br />1holes is now too great for sewer -dragging operations. The Board directed the Clerk to <br />,proceed to obtain proposals for such installation. <br />The Board next examined report on a licensed taxicab driver, bearing date of <br />March 6, 1955 and the signature of Sgt.
