McMahon <br />s/ Richard L. Hill <br />s/ Joseph E.

The city then grants an easement to the railroad. In <br />this case, the railroad had agreed to relocate tracks to the side <br />so that the street could be reconstructed. Mr. McMahon indicated <br />that this would be the second resolution in that regard, and, if <br />approved,-it would be attached to the ordinance to be considered <br />by the Common Council.

He <br />indicated that the city was negotiating with its supplier, Smith <br />Petroleum, to provide the city with its allocation, and he stated <br />that this was a result of .the Federal Allocation Program.
