Library 977.00 Library Levy ( Sidewalk Revolving .23.00 Mr. Stewart was asked about the new fire truck and the.Recorder explained that the American La France people in Portland had called the office during the day and that the fire truck was to be shipped on.the 5th or~not later than the 8th 18 of the month. Councilman Brownson reporting for the Health Committee, brought ~p th~ question of the Ordinance governing auto trailors which had been passed early in the spring. He stated that this was.a question of sanitary and fire measure and that the' trailors had become much more numerous than was anticipated. He said there had been sixty-eight licenses' is'sued and seventeen turned down and that while they were allowed addmittance to sanitary facilities, this did not take care of the question of dish:water and garbage. It was pointed out that some of these trailors I had.even been ,occupying the streets, but Mr. .Clubb stat~d he did not know of any trailors in the streets that were being used. Councilman Farrington said he saw one.on the West side of town and had contacted the police and that after the third night this trailor had been removed, but it had been there and occupied for three weeks. Mr. Clubb explained that before a permit was granted, they had to show they had.access to toilets, city lights and a way-of disposing of their garbage. Councilman Brownson stated it was his understanding at the time of the ordinance was.drawn that no permits should be issued unless the trailor was connected with a sewer. After some discussion a motion was-made by Hawn and seconded by Brownson that a resolution be drawn up.to the effect that all trailors must be connected to the sewer and only a time limit of forty-eight hours would be granted those not 19 connected to the sewer. This resolution was~adopted by the council. RE.S 0 L UTI 0 N BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of Eugene that in enforcing the previsions of Ordinance No. 8672 with respect to trailors and trailor houses, that all trailors remaining on property longer than ~ . fort)-eight hours must-be connected with a city sewer and comply with all zoning, building, fire and other regulations of the City of Eugene. Mr. Brownson stated that this was the start of the ,time of year for the' turkey feather nuisance. He said he wished to draw the councilts att~ntion .to the I trouble last year at the time the turkey feathers were burned and said something should be done to stop this trouble. Y.iI'. Brownson stated that Mr. Hughes, care- taker of the City dump, said they were just starting to haul feathers out there. He said that Swift and Company, Meadowland, and four or five other concerns were. killing and there would be tons and.tons of feathers to. take care of. Mr. Hughes said-the city should cover up the feathers, sut he had not facilities for this. Councilman Bond said since the city did not allow anyone but the garbage haulers to haul garbage and forced them to take the feathers to. the city dump, it looked like.the city would have to provide someway of handling this situation. Engineer I Clubb said if the city would build an extra road, that these feathers might be dumped into a canyon there and after they were all hauled, the bulldozer could cover them up. Attorney Calkins said he did.not think the matter of these. turkey feathers was covered in the garbage ordinance and he did not believe the city had to dispose of them. It would be up to the concerns producing the feathers to take care of them. After considerabilie diseussion the matter was put over for two weeks with the suggestion that the Health Committee contact the different concerns who would have these feathers, with a view of making an extra charge of this work. Councilman Brownson stated. that Mr. Hughes, the caretaker at the dump, had said he could not renew his contract at $30.00 per month. He states there are no steel rags or aluminum coming out now and he requested his contract be renewed for $75.QO 20 per month. ~
