Petition seeks paving and rail extension on Hamilton Pike
The council faces a request to regrade and pave Hamilton pike between Colerain pike and Knowlton corner with locust or oak block pavement and to place two railroad tracks centering on the street like Vine street in Cincinnati. The cost would fall on abutting property owners except the rail center sections funded by Cincinnati Spring Grove street railway. A remonstrance from property holders opposes double tracks between Millcreek bridge and Knowlton’s corner. The issue will be decided at the upcoming council meeting. The school board treasurer notes bond redemption of 890.66 dollars held by Bunte and Phillips plus interest.
