Melville handed in a petition, signed by all property owners effected, with one exception, asking the Board to change the sidewalk grade on Second Avenue, between D and E Streets, by raising it about 10 inches, or sufficient to retain all the palm and other trees now growing there, before ordering sidewalk laid on that thoroughfare. The petition was read, and as practically all the property owners above mentioned, were present, the matter was discussed, and upon motion by ~r. Scott, seconded by Tr. Barnes, the petition was granted by the following vote, to-wit: AYES: Trustees Scott, Lyons, Barnes, Peters. NOES: Tr. Wentworth. ABSENT: None. PAVING PROJECT: Mr. C. R. Conklin, of Country Club Villas, asked that some steps be taken lOoking toward paving K Street from Third Avenue to the East line of 5th Avenue, thus making a connecting link between the paving on 3rd Avenue and the Country Club. If the street could not be paved full width, he suggested that a strip in the center be paved. A representative of the Western Asphalt Association stated that he would take over the matter of getting a petition signed for the paving, full width, the city to pay for 40~ of the work, if bonds are voted so to do, and the abutting property owners to pay the balanoe of the cost. A petition, signed by 33 property owners affected, asking that F Street be paved, full width, from Bay Boulevard to 2nd Avenue, was presented and read, the city to vote on bonds to pay for 40~ of the cost and the abutting property owners to pay the balance of the cost. The Planning Commission took a vot on the subject, and rec- ommended that the peition be accepted. Therefore, the Board of Trustees ordered the petition reeeived and filed with other petitions now on file, to receive action when all petitions for paving under the present project are received. Trustee Wentworth suggested that the petition now on file for paving 2nd Avenue, be amended to include that portion between E and F Streets, the said petition omitting this portion. It developed that this portion had been omitted because it was thought that sewers should be laid there before the paving was laid. Held over for future oon- sideration when the oter petitions come up for action. At this point the Planning Commission retired to another room, and the meeting of the Board of Trustees continued. .~ RAISING GRADE OF 4th AVEI'UE: Messers Barrows and Benton, asked the Board to raise the grade of 4th Avenue Between Seavale Street and the North City limit.
