    REPORT TO BOARD OF CITY COMMISSIONERS MEADOWS ADDITION APRIL 2, 1945 At a regular meeting of the Board of City Commissioners on March 22, 1945, a committee from the Meadows Addition appeared and made the following requests to the Commissioners. 1. Investigation of sanitary condition at the corner of Fairfield and Chicago Street. 2. Requested that fire plugs be installed. 3. Inquired why sanitary sewers could not be installed over the entire district. The matter was referred to the City Manager, who on the same day discussed all these matters with the committee. The committee was composed of Mrs. C. F. Godard, Mrs. McCarthy and L. H. Cox. The following procedure was adopted at this time. 1. The Police Department was requested to notify the occupant on the lot at the corner of Chicago and Fairfield to vacate at once. This man had set up a small rabbit farm on property which he did not own or rent. He lived in a very unsatisfactory condition causing much anoyance to the neighbors. This matter has been followed up and the lot is being cleaned to the satisfaction of the neighbors. 2. The Fire Chief was instructed to install three stand pipes at the most strategic points within the addition. These stand pipes will be available as soon as they are removed from Main Street. 3. It was pointed out to the satisfaction of the committee that it would be impossible for the City to place sani­tary sewers because the assessed value of the lots was in many instances considerably less than the cost of the sewers. This office feels that the group was satisfied after these explanations were made. Respectfully submitted, Chas. C. McCall, CCM/mea City Manager LIQUOR APPLICATION - New Commissioner Clark moved that the application of Wilbur Clark for a Retail Tavern liquor license at the Monte Carlo, No. 15 Fremont Street, be approved.
