They have I think it is a very Mr. Brownell: Of course we don't own the land, we would have to contact thE owner. We called about that and something was done about it at onE time but now it has opened up again and I think any of these ex- ca ations shoul cbe checked out to make sure they are filled up. Mr Nimtz: Mr. Brownell, why don't you direct a letter to the attorney fo the various heirs there- Mr. Butler: I think the point Ms. Allen makes is a good one. The sidewalk and street of course are within our jurisdiction now and I think we ought to have the City Engineer take a loot at it to see if th re is any structural problem there. Mr. Wiggins: I would guess that perhaps what is happening is that some of the fill is being washed into the vault area underneath the sidewalk, and in the process of demolishing the building, they either did not seal off the vault area or they did not fill it up. I think it would be wise to protect the city and their interest in the sidewalk to ha e the City Engineer check into it and bring it to the attention of th responsible property owners - there is no question the public sh uld be protected here. Ms. Allen: There also are two big pipes that have lain there for months and I don't know why they are there. Ch ir: Unless there is some objection, the Chair directs Mr. Brownell to bring the condition of the sidewalk and the street to the atten- ti n of the City Engineer.
