Each and every one of the forego ing findings and recommendations, in the sixteen individual cases here in set out, are made upon the as sumption and are contingent upon the said City of Alliance, Nebraska, through and by the act of its consti tuted authorities, bearing the ex pense of taking up of the said walks and the relaying the same and doing all thinga necessary to put said walks In a condition to comply with the ordinances governing the con struction of sidewalks. We further recommend that the city when engaged in the work pre serve for the use of each lot owner the top soli or black earth, belong ing to each lot and leave the same as convenient as possible to the lot to be used by the owner for parking purposes and to use all reasonable care to preserve all living shade or ornamental trees or shrubs which may at the time be found in front of each lot. Your committee desires to state that in making these findings that we have not acted in an arbitrary manner but have taken Into consid eration the benefits both specifically and generally which will accrue to the benefit of the individual owner by reaaon of having this work done. At present these frontages are In a ragged, unsafe, unsightly, uncertain and unsatisfactory condition. By completing this work the property owners will be enabled to construct such retaining walls as they may de sire, complete their parkings, plant trees and shrubbery and by placing their property upon a stable founda tion will greatly enhance and fix its value. We further recommend and advise that photographs be taken of these frontages before work is commenced and again after the work is complet ed, aa evidence of the benefits deriv ed and improvement made in the ap pearance of the properties affected. We would recommend that the work be commenced and pushed to completion as expeditiously as possi ble. Submitted this 30th day of April, A. D. 1915. (Signed) IRA E. TASH, A. D. RODGERS, J. D.
