Lambert Explains
Rights of the City
Under the Contract
Corporation Counsel Lambert has
received a number of inquiries relative
to sections of the five-year street
lighting contract which refer to the
status of the city's lighting fund
the contract should be sustained; also
the rights of the city to acquire the
present plant during the life of the
contract.
"I have been asked whether, if the
contract should be sustained, money
now expended for gas street lighting
could be claimed under this contract.
I am told that statements have been
made at meetings that if the contract
goes into ertcct, the electric light com
pany could claim all of the lighting
fund, including the gas street lighting
appropriation. According to specih
terms of the contract, existing con
tracts cannot be disturbed. The con
tract could in no way affect the gas
street lighting, Mr. Lambert ex
plained.
The corporation counsel made it
Clear tnat snonid the city wish to ac
