"Honorable Members, Common Council
City of Rochester
Gentlemen:
I am returning the resolution ordering the hearing on assessments
for widening and curb and gutter on 4th Street S.E. from 6th Ave.
S. E. to the State Hospital, without my signature.
However, I do not disapprove of a hearing, since, to the best of
my knowledge, there has been no hearing since early May last year.
However, I wish to cfall. the attention of the present Council to
the fact that I met with two groups of people who live on 4th St.
S. E. prior to the hearing in May 1953 and romised those people
who live between 6th Ave. and llth Ave. on &th St. S.E., that I
would veto any assessment against their -property, because they
had already paid for pavement and curb and gutter. Any pavement
widening was strictly for the benefit of the rest of the public
and should be paid for by general taxation.
Now is the time to adopt such a policy and I would like the Council
to give this proper consideration before taking any further action.
Residents from llth Ave. to the State Hospital on 4th St. S. E.
were willing to pay their proportionate share of the cost of
paving and curb and gutter.
Respectfully,
Claude H. Mcquillan
Mayor of Rochester"
