Mayor Wiseman said that he believed that this was a good time to get this work done. He said he felt that the city had a good contract with the paving con- Martin he ac hy Mr. tractors and since most gas lines are now in, there would he very little cutting of streets now put down. He added that property owners would have five years to pay their share of the paving cost. City Manager Blackwell declared that he would he glad to meet with the property owners to dis cuss the specifications, cost and other items incident to the paving. He made it clear that the city would hear one-half the cost of the paving, with the property owners on both side of the street paying one-fourth the cost.

Mr. moved that the propose-.' cepted. It was seconded Holloway and adopted. Before the close of the meeting Mr. Blackwell stated that in re gard to the petitions for paving, that if two-thirds of the property owners petitioned for paving and the project was adopted by coun cil, those who had not signed were liable for their share of the paving costs and would be billed accord ingly. He said when the cost of the work was determined, the property owners would be hilled for their part. Mr. Blackwell urged that the Budget and Planning committee meet as soon as possible and work out next year’s budget. He asked that the recreation committee sub mit their budget in order that it could be considered when the committee meets.
