Mr. Barette also reported the gravel trucks were becoming very careless inthe loading of their trucks and considerable gravel was being scattered on the streets and that it was hard for the sweeper to take care of it. He suggested that the Police Dept. should contact the gravel haulers and see if this practice could not be stopped. Mr. Barette stated he wished to make the final report concerning the situation at the Drive-In lVIarket and the Dutch Girl Dairy. He said the committee had finally agreed to reconstruct the curb at the street line and also a curb on the inside of the sidewalk iinetandfleave a 20-footentrance at the north line of the Drive-In Market to allow cars to cross the sidewalk and go in between the sidewalk and the front of the Drive-In Market and the Dutch Girl Dairy and leave another 20-foot opening to come back out on Willamette Street below the south side of the Dutch Girl Dairy~ Councilman Brownson also explained that it was their intention to have one, two, or three parking meters installed in front of these places with only 12-minute privelege.

Mr. Tillman said he had come to the meeting to make a report on this situation but perhaps he had waited too long. He stated he owned the property ajoining the Dutch-Girl Dairy on the south and that this drive-in situation in front of the Drive-In Market and the Dutch Girl Dairy was a hazard and a nuisance and was dangerous; that people would drive up in front of these places and back out on Willamette Street and he could see no reason Why drive-in priveleges should be allowed at these two places. Councilman Brownson said he would like to explain to Mr. Tillman that he thought the action taken by the Council tonight would result in the same kind of use as that now used by Mr. Torrey at the Electric Cleaners, and that the Street Committee had explained to the tennants that if the arrangement as proposed was not satisfact ory, that the entire curb at the street would be replaced.

He said he did not know exactly what would be a reasonable II charge, and after some discussion it was decided that there should be a charge of $2.50 per load paid to the dump tender, and this should be paid at the time of the trucks making the delivery.
