Petition for street light at the corner of Western.Avenue and Napier Street ordered delivered to Wm. F. Qualls for investigation. The following recommendation for light in alley in rear of 420 Lincoln Way West was ordered placed on file: September 22, 1932. To the honorable Board of Public Rio rks , Gentlemen: There is a condition set up in the rear of No.430 Line oin Way west, through the arrangement of this and adjacent buildings, whereby a dark pocket is created and screened from observation frpm the alley. It is an ideal situation for one bent on committing a depredation. Police pass through this alley on their rounds but unless they shoud.d go back into this dark pocket they would not observe a man attempting to break in th6se store buildings. Consequently frequent robberies and nuisances are committed at this place. Just recently the iron bars protecting the windows in the rear. of Sindlingers Market were sawed and the building robbed. I am quite in agreement with Mr. Sindlinger s -thought that a small lamp on the pole in the alley back of his shop would be of great benefit to the adjacent property as well as light up this pocket. year. I recommend that a 1000 lumen lamp be installed, at a cost of $22.00 per Respectfully submitted , Wm. F. Qua lls , Supt . Electrical, Dept.
