City Engineer Etnyrs submitted bis an nual report, which In part is ss follows: The last year haa been an exceptional one aa regards public Improvements. More than 2.M square yards of brick pavement waa laid, or nearly aa much aa anv four prevloua years. Of this amount 71.S23.1S square yards were estimated and assessed. the remainder waa not estimated because the 'whole street w aa nor completed. A matter that I consider of great Im portance la the brick sidewalk problem. More consideration baa been given to the lowest bid, regardleaa of the quality of the brick bid on. than I think should be for the general good. Certainly, any property owner would rather pay a little more to have a good, substantial, neat looking walk than pay the lower bid for the poorer ma terial. On account of the amount of work before me this year and the limited help at my command, I would request that the alie walk Inspector appointed by your honor able body be required to Inspect the walks during onsiructlon by the contractor and report to ma dally. Indian rreek ditch, below Seventh atreet again needs cleaning out. The ditch waa widened and deepened from Seventh atreet to Nineteenth avenue In July to November. luM. but haa again hl'.ed up to a dangoroua d'gree. The work men waa done by day labor and proved very satisfactory. It is very gratifying to stale that th brlrk paving on North Main street, after nearlv two years of severe usage. Is show ing very little wear. This la the only paved street In the city where the cement filler has been used, and while this no doubt prolongs the life of a brl k pavement, yet It could not prevent an Inferior brick from crumbling, and the good condition of the pavement more thoroughly convinces me of the correctness of my former state ments to the council, vis.: "That the best vitrified brick Is equal to any as a paver." I would also recommend that the top course of the Oakland avenue pavement from Ave to seven feet each aloe of the center be taken up and relald, with the worn side of the brick turned down, and a cement filler used Instead of.ssnd. This will prevent the water which runs down the middle of the street from washing nut the filler aa at present and exposing the edges of the brick to the wear and tear of travel. No doubt the life of the pave ment could be prolonged several years by thla method. A summary of publle Improvements shows that 71.X23.13 square yarns of paving has been laid at a cost of $125,922 08. 4R3 feet of sewer laid at a cost of $164 98, 5,397 feet of artificial stone curbing at a cost of $1,480.21, 10,970 feet of brick sidewalks at a cost of 13.317, S.201 cubic yards of grading at a cost of 21. "62. 31; culvert at Pierce and Oak streets, $491; foot bridge at Broadway and Thirteenth street, $165; total of public Improvements for year ending March 31, 1902, $182,572.53.
