The Honorable Board of Public Works,
South Bend, Indiana,
tsar Sirs:- Mr.
irs:-
Mr. Heber Harter in constructing the pavements in Harter Heights is not
raising the pavements at the street intersections at the crosswalks, but is running
the gutter straight through.
This is a type of construction different from that in general use in the
City, and I would like to have the opinion of the Board in regard to _the matter
If they do not approve of the type of construction being used, it should be changed
before the work had gone too far, and so cause a great deal of expense in. making .
the necessary changes.
Yours very truly,
FREDERICK J. ANDERSON,
City Engineer.
