<br /> 1.1 Councilman Barette, reporting for the Street Department, referred to the letteI'i
<br /> II from Harold J. Turner, secretary, Oregon Railroad Association, dated December 8th,
<br /> il to which was attached a petition and a form of Ordinance concerning the placing
<br /> 1'1 of stop signs at railway grade crossings in the city. Mr. Barette ,stated that he
<br /> 'i thought the request was reasonable and that the City had the stop signs on hand and
<br /> i he believed that they should be installed. Engineer Club'b .suggested that there
<br /> 2! really should be reflectors so tha t the,$igns could be seen for night driving.
<br /> ;~ Councilman Farrington stated that if the railroad was requesting that the City
<br /> I' put up these stop signs, he thought the railroad companies should cooperate by
<br /> ,! putting up traffic signals at some of the worst intersections in place of stop
<br /> il signs which are now used there. A motion was made by Barette and seconded by Stewar
<br /> ii that the Street Department be instructed to put up the stop signs to comply with
<br /> ~ the request as asked by the Oregon Railroad Association. This motion wa~ carried.
<br /> ~ In regard to the passing of the ordinance requesting this matter, it was referred
<br /> !: to the City Attorney and the Judiciary Committee to report back at the next Council
<br /> II meeting.
<br /> ~ Councilman Barette also brought up the subject of the recent flood of the
<br /> 11 Amazon ditch, and referred to an article in the Guard concerning the opening up
<br /> Ii of the channel outside of the City limits. rifIr. Barette stated that until this was
<br /> 11 done it would be impossible for the City to control the water in the l~azon. In
<br /> ,i order to make a satisfactory improvement it was pointed out that the ditch \^.QuId
<br /> I 11 have to be opened up outside the City limits and the bottom of the Amazon inside
<br /> 3 II the City limits lowered so as to give a better fall. Mayor Large pointed out that
<br /> ,i there should be a drainage district established just outside the City limits. It
<br /> I'was stated that after the Amazon had been dug out outside the City limits, it would
<br /> II improve the property it went through. Councilman Stewart suggested that it might
<br /> II be wise to send a letter to the County Court regarding the matter, and see if some
<br /> II acti9n can not be taken. Councilman Koppe suggested tha t a drainage district _
<br /> ':, should be established at both ends, one in the City and one outside the City. After
<br /> !t some discussion, Mayor Large referred the matter to the Judiciary Committee to
<br /> I; take the ma tter up with the County Court and see what could be worked out.
