',! Harry Leaton address,ed the Council and stated tha t in making some improvements
! on the building at 1016 Willamette, he had allowed the brick construction to
II extend four inches over the property line into the street. He stated this was an
! error on his part in not knowing just where the property line was, but that the
II construction was only temporary and would be replaced by glass bricks as soon
,I as they could be secured. He asked permission to leave the present structure
t; stand until the glass bricks could be secured, which he said he was informed would
!: be between 30 and 90 days. Councilman Brownson said he had looked over the situation
and as it was only a temporary arrangement he thought it would do no harm. Engineer
Clubb was asked to make a statement regarding the situation and he said the work
had been done wi thout taking out a perIni t and that it did extend over the property
line four inches. Mr. Leaton explained he thought Mr. Gilbert had taken out the
'I permit for this work. A motion was made by Brownson and seconded by Davis that
~l the present construction be allowed to stand until the glass bricks could be
~secured. The motion was carried.

Councilnlan Farrington stated that there was no insurance on the house located
9 I at 233 North Polk Street, and it was the Finance Committee's recommendation that
the Recorder be instructed to p~ace $1,000.00 fire insurance on this building.
On motion made, seconded, and carried, the recommendation was adopted by the Councia
Councilman Farrington stated that maybe this was not just exactly the Finance
Committee's business, but it had been brought to their attention that two men on
the Street Department, W. L. Wood and Roger Bale, were receiving only $116.67 per
month, and that it was the Finance Committee's recummendation that they shoWd be
I advanced to $126.67, this pay retroactive to April 1st. Councilman Barette stated
I he objected to this matter being taken up in this way as he thought the chairman
of the Street Committee should have been informed regarding this before any action
was taken. Councilman Stewart stated that the matter only came to the Finance
Committee's attention today, and that they had not had a chance to talk to Mr.
10 ' Barette in this matter, and it was not the Finance Committee's intention in any
was to be discourteous in this matter. Councilman Stewart said he wished to
I second the motion made by Mr. Farrington. Councilman Hawn stated he could see
Mr. Barette's position and as there would be another meeting before the end of the
; month he thought the matter should be laid over at this time and be considered by
i both the Street Commi ttee and the Finance Commi tte'e to report back a t the next
:i meeting. Mr. Hawn said he would make this in a form of motion that the matter be
laid on the table. This motion was seconded by Pennington and carried.

il Mayor Large stated at this time that he thought they should deviate from the
1..1 regular proceedings and hear from the Parks Committee; tha~ he thought Mr. Penning-
11 i ton had something to report. Mr. Pennington said he didn't have much of a report
! to make only that the Council members noticed he left the previous meeting
Ii hurriedly and that he wished to pass around a box of cigars and report that it was
~ a boy weighing 8 pounds, 7 ounces.

Councilman Barette, reporting for the Street "Committee, stated that at the
last Council meeting the committee was authorized to buy something as a present
for Mr. LeVan; that he had taken this matter up with some of the l1~embers and that
he had bought as a present for Mr. LeVan a spring rocking chair. He said he had
first thought he would have it delivered up to the Council rooms, but later
decided that the Street Department would pick up the chair and deliver it to
1,,11'. LeVan.
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. A motion was made by Brownson and seconded by'Hawn that
the recommendation of the Street Committee be adopted. On Roll Call councilmen
voting aye: Koppe, Barette, Brownson, Hawn and Pennington; no: Farrington,
Stewart, and Davis. The motion was declared carried. 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.
Councilman Stewart, reporting for the Fire and Water Committee, said there
was nothing to report only that they had lost one man to take up work at a better
paid job.

Councilman Brownson reported that the barn on 4th Avenue West was in good
repair and Councilman Farrington stated that he had talked to the manager of the
Cooperative Poultry Producer's Association and that they had said they were going
to tear down the old barn.
I;
V Councilman Brownson, reporting for the Health Committee, stated Mr. Hughes
i; had taken up with him the problem of the dumping of sludge from septic tanks by
Ii: different people handling this class of work and that Mr. Hughes had stated that
I:: it did not come from inside the City, but was from outside of the City limits
,: and that it was very hard to handle at the City dump and Mr. Brownson stated he
,!
i.' did not feel that the dump tender should be required to handle this sludge without
!~ extra compensation. 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. The following resolution was read and on
motion, ado~ted.

Mr. Brownson stated that Mr. Barette had mentioned the gift to Mr. LeVan and
stated he did not realize the Street Corrunittee was going to do anything, but that
he thought a report was to be made back at this meeting. He said that the purchas-
ing of the chair was all right but that he did not consider that sufficient and
that he thought in addition to the chair Mr. LeVan should be granted one months
pay; Mr. Davis stated that 30 years was a long time to be with one concern and
they were the best years of I~~I'. LeVan I s life, and he thought he was entitled to
at least a month's pay. Councilman Hawn stated that the Council knew how he stood
on the situation from the statement he had made at the last meeting and that an
extra month's pay would only be one day a year for the time he had put in and that
he thought Mr. LeVan was entitled to at least the difference between the month's
pay and the cost of the chair, if the Council did not feel like giving a full
month's pay in addition to the chair. After some further discussion, a motion WES
made by Brownson, seconded by Stewart, and carried, that Mr. LeVan be given a full
month I s pay in addi tion to the cha ir purchased by :Mr. Bar ette.

At this time a letter addressed to Mayor Large from Mr. Cloyes of the Lane
County Health Department was read. 'l'his letter was in regard to mosquito control
: in Lane County, and the possibility of mosquitoes transmitting malaria from
18 i infected persons to well individuals. Mayor Large explained that the worst sit-
I
uation was at the Fern Ridge Dam and that the most of the places infested by
mosquitoes were outside of Eugene, but that he would refer this matter to the Healt
Corrunittee to be reported on at the next meeting. '
Councilman Pennington, reporting for the Parks Committee, brought up the
question of the location for a site for the swimming pool. He said it was the
intention of the committee at the last Council meeting to recow~end that the five
ecre tract inside of the fair grounds, south of the Amazon, be purchased from
Lane County at $200.00 per acre, making a total price of $1,000.00. He said there
seemed to be some objection to this location and that he would like to have an
expression from the Council regarding the location. He said in fact a couple of
19 l members of the committee had preferred the site back of the vutte. It was pointed
out that a ci.tizens commi ttee previously had made a study of the si tuation and that
they had recolnmended the purChase of the site referred to inside of the fair ~unds.
Mr. Frank Hill stated that he would like to see the purchase of this site and that
! he would be in favor of building the pool this year. After some discussion by
: the Council a motion was made by Pennington, seconded by Hawn, and carried, that
the City should Rurchase from the County the five acre tract inside of the fair
grounds for the ~1,000.00
I
CounciDnan Pennington stated that the Playgrounds Commission was to have a
meeting this week and that he would like to have an expression of the Council at
this time regarding the playground activities for the coming year. He said he did
not know whether it was the intention of the Council that the playground activities
20 should be curtailed or w;",ether they should be continued as in the past. Councilman
i Brownson stated that he thought this would be a poor time to curtail the activities,
in fact, he thought they should be expanded if possible. Councilman Barette said
he felt that the full time program should be carried out. There were no objections
from the Council as to the carrying out of the full time program.
Councilman Davis, reporting for the Sewer Committee, said that they had re-
21 ceived a letter from Mr. Woodson regarding a crack in the sewer at the foot of
Agate Street. He said he and Mr. Clubb had examined this and repairs would be
made.
Councilman Hawn, reporting for the Police Department, said he had a request
I from the Alaska Junk Company for permission to rent space for a truck in front of
their place of business on 5t_~ Street. He said they claimed that a certain party
, parked a car there each day and left it standing all the time. Councilman Hawn
suggested that a sign similar to other loading signs might be placed in front of
22 , the Alaska Junk Company allowing 24 minute loading time. Councilman Farrington
stated he did not thinl-c this would be satisfactory to the Alaska Junk people as wha '
! they really wanted was permission to park in front of their place all day. It was
suggested that this matter be referred back to the Police Committee for further
study, ahd Councilman Hawn stated he had already put in two weeks time on it and
did not know what was the solution, but that he would make further attempts to a
I solution and report back at the next Council meeting.
Councilman Hawn said that he had something to report on that was m real
problem and that was the dog situation. He read a letter from the Humane Society
and stated that the Police Committee had had a meeting with the Wociety and that
in order to handle any kind of proper dog contro+, the City would have to spend
: a considerable sum of money. He said the best estimates obtainable were the
: monthly charges would be about as follows: $150.00 for dog catcher's salar~;
: $10.00 light and water; $20.00 food; $25.00 for expense of an automobile, ~5.00 heat
. $6.75 telephone, $25.00 veterinary and medical services, or about an annuaJ cost
of $3,000.00 He said it had been suggested that one of the NYA buildings should
be removed from back of the butte and that they be placed on a City lot in the
vicinity of 25th and Hilyard or 25th and Alder, which would be close to Dr. Swan-
gaard's veterinary hospital. Mr. Claypool and Mr. McClain stated they did not thinM
\ the City need worry about this being a cont~,nuous cost to the City as other

Ii wanted to get an expression out of the Council at this time as to whether they rt
II would support this arrangement to supply funds in the co~ing budget. He sta ted ...:::,
I: that the City already had about $800.00 in the Doe Fund from licenses sold this ~
i year and that would mean allowing something like $2,200.00 for the use of the
23 : Humane Society and in addition to that it would probably cost $500.00 to move
'; the NYA bUilding from back of the butte to the City lot. After considerable
II discussion by the Council the following resolution was read and on motion was
;, adopted by unanimous vote of the Council.
