Dear Sir:

;"h;,,`-� :
;,� ,
Notice is hereby acknowl_edged of proposed sidewalk construction,
Preliminary Order 242720, as of this date.
: „_
There is no indication of a need for this construction in the
block on i�cLean Aven;�e, from ��tes Aver�ue t� i�9ound St. It is in very .;�,°,;
good condition, and I stron�;ly su�;gest a furtr.er investigation be made
prior to the meeting scheduled fo: ?O:OU a.m. on P.4ay 15y 1.969.
However, in this survey I urge th�t other sidewalks, in this ; :
immediate vicinity, be examined. Such a study v��ill clearly indicate 'S `�
the deplorable conditions present, and that a pressin� need exists �� $�: :
in these areas. I submit the f ollowing list of addresses to you, and �'!�',��
hope that 4n immediate investigation of the sidewalks be made: ;;;�.<' '

no sidewalk �t all, ar.d tne rest are all vzry bad. ;;:;�

It seems ridiculous that good sidewalk be replaced, p�rticul�rly ; 3k '
