Mayor Pro Tem Whipple suggested the people put this type of trash in proper containers and bundles and let the disposal company pick them up. DAMAGE TO STREETS City Manager Kennedy reported to the Board that he has received letters from the Las Vegas Courthouse Builders' Exchange, Associated General Contractors of America and Laing-Garrett Construction Construction Specialties protesting the possibility of the City making any demand on them for damage to pavement resulting from normal and necessary service to the Courthouse construction project. In the discussion that followed it was agreed that some of the large equipment is breaking down the paving. The City has already fixed one area. If an assessment district was put in, the demand on the property owners would be too great. Any weight over 5,000 lbs. is forbidden on the streets except on truck routes. Another suggestion presented was that perhaps our truck licenses should be revised or else raise the weight restriction up a little bit. The fact remains that there exists a real problem and one that will probably increase with big building projects coming up in the future. Mr. Kennedy said that when he returns from out of town next week that he will contact these companies concerned as there is a lot of misunderstanding on both sides. There being no further business to come before the Board, at the hour of 9:15 P.M. Commissioner Sharp moved this meeting adjourn. Motion seconded by Commissioner Bunker and carried by the following vote: Commissioners Bunker, Sharp and His Honor Mayor Pro Tem voting aye; noes, none. Absent: Mayor C. D. Baker and Commissioner Fountain.
