The report recommended that
the city comply with the State
Highway department’s proposal to
widen the highway to 64 feet, us
ing the same design as “that part
in the City of Bryan which extends
from the court house north to the
intersection of highway 21.”
It further recommended that all
property bordering this improve
ment except that part belonging to
the state be assessed at $2 per
front foot. This would amount to
about one-half of the cost, the
committee said.
The council felt it would be a
year or longer before the highway
department would begin work on
the project.
Canceled Taxes
The council also canfceled $802.15
in personal tuxes that have been
delinquent since 1951. This cov-
eis such taxes not paid between
1939-51. An additional $660.24 in
real property taxes, however, was
not canceled.
In other action, the council rec
ommended that City Attorney J.
Wheeler Barger write an addition
to the building permits issued by
the city. The new restriction would
require a person applying for a
permit to certify that he was com-
plying with all sub-division re
strictions.
The action was brought before
the council by a group headed by
Capt. M. D. Carlson. The group
wanted the restriction because
city permits were allowing acts
contrary to deed restrictions.”
The re-zoning of the lots west
of the clinic at Jersey and old
highway 6, owned by A. Stone
Jones, Nvas referred to the zoning
committee. The lots are jjow zon
ed for apartments. f
