FIRST MEETING FOR 1902
Work done by the City Council - Many Petitioner's Heard From

The first meeting of the city council for the year 1902 took place last night, when Mayor Farley and all the councilmen, save C. W. Dietzel,
were present. Several petitions were introduced, the first from Frank Kramer asking that certain streets in Kramer's addition be opened, and
that the city redeed to Kramer a piece of land formerly deeded to the public by him for a street, but was not used as such. The matter was
referred to the judiciary committee.

G. F. Guinther made an offer to the council saying that he would see that the rock pile on west Ninth street was removed if the city would
furnish powder and tools, which offer was referred to the committee on street and public property.

The residents of the Garrison petitioned the city to furnish them electric lights. The communication was laid on the table until the electric power is brought into the city and the matter is considered more thoroughly, which will be at the next meeting. Another petition was from E. F. Sharp, and others, asking for a sewer on Federal street. Moved and carried that the council proceed to put in the same.

It was reported to the council that the contract for the Court street sewer had been completed, and a warrant was drawn in favor of Sexton &
Walther for $1265.44.

A very important matter was brought up when the motion was made to hire men to keep crosswalks clean. It was, however, deemed advisable to place gravel on the streets, and a committee, composed of Councilmen Wilson, Wakefield and Lemke, was appointed to obtain gravel.
