December 19, 1956 I Honorable Mayor and Member of the City Council Gentlemen and Madam: Attached is a letter from the Associated West End Clubs, signed by Mr. D. D. Wozniak, requesting that Pleasant Avenue be blocked off from Palace to approxi- mately Juliet so that the children may use the hill for sliding across that portion of Pleasant Avenue. Our Traffic Engineeer, Mr. Eugene Avery, has investigated this matter and sees no objection to it from a traffic control standpoint, therefore we concur in this request. This matter is being referred to the City Council with the request that it be referred to the Corporation Counsel's Office for the drawing up of an appropriate re- solution covering same.

This portios of Pleasant Avenue has no homes, is very rarely used, does not block anyone's access to the ter- ritory, is sot graded and is generally in extremely bad condition. We plan on grading and levelling some of the hummocks on the hill and would also apprediate permission from the City to do thi8 *crk Thank you since ly for your anticipated courtesy in this later.

PAUL INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION December 11, 1956 Honorable Frank D. Marzitelli Commissioner of Public Works Department Dear Commissioner: In accordance with your recent instructions we have in- vestigated the possibility of barricading for the winter Pleasant Avenue from about Palace to about Juliet. We under. stand that the West End Commercial Club has requested this barricading so that a ski and toboggan slide can be installed for the winter. The street is not graded and is full of holes. It does not appear to carry very much traffic. There are no houses affected by closing the street. It appears, therefore, that from a traffic control standpoint the barricades could be in- stalled, and we recommend that the request be granted. Yours very truly, g"--1/1"%irl EUGENE V.
