The Board approved assignment of Emery J. Fredericks of the proceeds of his
contract for installing a new boiler at the Central Fire Station to Armand L. Harris,
attorney -in -fact, which was filed with the original contract.
Mr. Anderson reported regarding the building of tool shed under the sidewalk at
the Poledor Building, stating that he saw no objection to it if the matter was
approved by the Chief of the Fire Department, to whom it was referred.
A petition was received from sixteen residents and property owners in the vicinity
of 26th Street and Pleasant Street, requesting a street light be installed at that
corner. The matter was referred to Mr. Qualls for investigation and report.
Mr. A. A. Schellinger, manager of the Washington -Colfax Apartments, requested
that a loading zone be established at Colfax and Washington Streets at the entrance
of these apartments. The matter was referred to Officer Ernest H. Miller of the
Traffic Bureau for investigation and recommendation.
Mr. Clark of the Aristo Cleaners was present at the meeting and requested the
privilege of putting up a new building in close proximity to their present plant to
be used for the re -conditioning of their cleaning compound. Since there is a conflict
between the Fire Marshal's regulations and our own Code as to the distance such a
building should be from their main plant, this matter was referred to the Chief of
the Fire Department and to the Building Commissioner for investigation and recommen-
dation.
The meeting adjourned at 11:15 A. M.
