Ot) ARGUMENTS MADE ORIGINALLY BEFORE YOU AND CONTAINED IN THE REMONSTRANCE PETITION <r: ARE RENEWED. IT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND WHY THE CITY COUNCIL REFUSES TO ACCEPT THE -- SIGNATURES Of PROPERTY OWNERS, QUALIFIED TO SIGN THE PETITION, WHO OWN 70% OF THE FRONTAGE ~ ON MADisON S!REET, 18TH TO 20TH AS VA.LID EXPRESSIONS OF THEIR OPINION. IT HAS BEEN EXPLAINED TO YOU THAT THOSE WHO HAD SIGNED THE ORIGINAL PETITION TO PAVE EITHER 01.0 SO AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO A 34 rOOT STREET OR BECAUSE IT WAS REPRESENTED TO THEM THAT EVERYONE ELSE WAS FOR PAVING. FINALLY, AS ONE COUNCILMAN SAID TO ME, WHILE IT IS WITHIN THE POWER OF THE CITY e .COUNCIL TO PAVE ANY STREET, THE CI TY COUNCI L EVEN I N CASE OF PUBLIC NECESSITY OBTAINS THE CONSENT OF THE MAJORITY.
