REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC ITRKS AND SAFETY, Clyde E._7 illiams, Chairman: I ecember 10th, 1945 Members of the Common Council City of South Bend, Indiana. Gentlemen: The Board of Public 7 orks and safety was requested by the Council at its last regular meeting to provide the Council with street lighting information at its next regular meeting. The attached table and print is a record of street light installations in the River Park area, since January 1939. Part of the request was for action on the petiticn for a street light at 30th and Hastings Street. We were unable to find this petition, however, we did find a note signed by Mayor Pavey that reads as follows: "Councilman Brannon would like to have a street light located between Hastings and Grand Trunk moved to the Grand Trunk crossing and a new light placed at the intersecticn of Hastings and 30th Street. Since it is the policy for railroads to install the street lights at their crossings and at their expense, we notified the Grand Trunk officials of a request for a street light at this crossing. The Grand Trunk officials rejected the request stating that they were of the opinion that a street light at this crossing would not improve the condition especially with the new flasher type signals installed there ". No further action has been taken by the Board because it is felt that the one available light will serve a greater purpose in its present location than at the inter - section of 30th and Hastings Street. Very truly yours, CLYDE E. y,ILLIAMS, Board of Public ptiorks and 6afety- Clyde E. J:illiams, Chairman.
