Mayor E. W. Cragin and Board of Commissioners of the City of Las Vegas. Gentlemen: I wish to enter my objection to building the swimming pool on the north side of the City Park, as recommended by the Planning Commission, for the following reasons: 1. Lack of sufficient lighting. 2. No adequate approach to said location. 3. Not the proper environment for swimming pool. It is my suggestion that if the Mayor wishes to build the swimming pool at such location that the Parent Teachers Association and School Authorities be consulted and their recommendation be given consideration. I also feel that the residents of the South side of the City are entitled to consideration as to the location of said pool. Respectfully yours, /s/_ A. Corradetti A. Corradetti Commissioner Commissioner Bates moved that the swimming pool to be built on the Westside be located in Block 14 of Valley- view Addition, this property now owned by the City of Las Vegas. Motion seconded by Commissioner Clark and carried by the following vote: Commissioners Baskin, Bates, Clark and His Honor voting aye; noes, none. Absent: Commissioner Corradetti. Commissioner Clark moved that Claim No. 573-1, in the sum of $14,945.90, covering final payment to the Pioneer Construction company for the erection of the Fire Station be approved. Motion seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried by the following vote: Commissioners Baskin, Bates, Clark and His Honor voting aye; noes, none. Absent: Commissioner Corradetti.
