Gentlemen
CSS�A , 3 e u
In accordance with the proceedings heretofore
had by your honorable body pertaining to the improvement
of Harrison Street, from the V'7est property line of Pine
St_. et VVestward to the East property line of Grand Avenue,
I wish to inform you that the contractor, Trotti & Thomson,
Inc., has performed and completed all of the work in improv®
ing said street in full accordance with the Plans, Specifica-
tions and the Contract therefor dated October 28, 1948, said
work being more particularly described as the construction
thereupon of a six-inch (G!!) reinforced Portland Cement .
Concrete 81ab together with integral curb, drainage lines
and facilities and other appurtenances to such work.
I have examined `the work done as per that cer-
tain Contract of October 28, 1948, and find that the con-
tractor, Trotti & Thomson, Inc., has completed the work in
a proper and highly satisfactory manner, and in full accord-
ance with the Plans, Specifications and the Contract referr-
ed to herein.
Therefore, I recommend that the City Council
accept and receive this work.
Respectfully,
R. Clyde *ack, City Engineer
