Concrete base urged for paving at Austin and Carson
After an inspection of conditions near Austin and Carson streets, Commissioner Kearny said he will recommend a concrete base under the Uvalde rock asphalt. The material was to be three inches thick on macadam, but property owners requested the change due to heavy traffic. City cost would be little if any more, following a council committee meeting with residents L. K. Lauren Albert Schifffers Walter Hansen and W. W. Winterborne. The paving hearing closing was postponed for the inspection.

An acreage total of 18 acres was withheld pending directors’ decision on leasing the site.
