COMPLAINT AGAINST THE PLUMBERS
Tear Ip Paving Without Taking- Oat
Permits and Neglect to liar It
Restored In Its Original
Condition.
A resolution calling for the paving ot
Ninth street from Broadway to First av
enue was Introduced st the meeting ot the
city council last night, final action on
which will be had November t. It was at
first proposed to havs this block paved with
brick on concrete base, but as It was
doubtful whether, owing to the lateness of
the season, concrete could be laid this
year, specifications were sdopted providing
for either concrete or Council Bluffs brick
bste. This Improvement Is desired by the
Grooeweg & Shoentgen company, whose new
warehouse at the corner of Ninth and
Broadway Is Bearing completion, and the
Illinois Central and Union Pacific Railroad
companies. The street at present Is al
most Impassable owing to the heavy haul
ing consequent on the building of the
Groneweg ft Shoentgen company's ware
bouse. Complaint was made that the plumbing
companies failed to secure permits as re
quired by ordinance when their work ne
cessitated the tearing up of pavement, A
number of Instances were cited where the
streets had been torn up and the paving
improperly relald. Attention was called
to the provisions of the ordinance govern
ing the matter which require that before
any paving is torn the company doing the
work must secure a permit and deposit
with the city clerk a sum sufficient to pay
Bluffs and vicinity at the union services to
be held Thanksgiving day. She explained
that by this she did not mean the regular
collection to be taken up at that service
as tbe ministers have already .decided that
will be donated to the Associated Charities
for the benefit of the creche on Glen avenue.
She announced that a meeting will be
held Monday morning at 10 o'clock between
the committee from the Woman's Christian
association tnd tbe ministers of tbe city
at which this matter will be discussed.
