~ 420 , 5 Mr. Frank J. Matzger, Manager of the Oregon Fruit Company addressed the council asking for a special permit to complete the construction of an office on the platform of the old Kremmel Bakery on the Seventh Street side. It was pointed out that the platform exceeds the private property territory extending over the street area, into that portion of which is generally used for sidewalk pruposes enabling them to back up to the platform. After a brief discussion the City Attor- ney pointed' out that the city had no right to grant a permit for such purposes and the matter was dropped. Communication was presented from Sol Rosenberg calling the council's attenti n to the. condition of the street at 14th and Charnelton and asked the ~ouncil to do what is necessary to correct this condition. He pointed out that automobiles- driving South on Charnelton Street must make a turn at 14th Avenue West or they will run over the curb on the lawn of his house or directly into the house itself. He also reported that there have been ar1number of accidents at this corner, a numbe of cars having run over his lawn with several narrow escapes on the part of the pedestrians. He felt that perhaps a guard rail with red reflectors would solve the problem. The matter was referred to the Police Committee to make a recommendation at the next council meeting.
