- Ald. CUNNINGHAM presented the following petition,
which was referred to the Judiciary committee to report at
- the next regular meeting of the Council:
|
- Honorable Mayor and Common Council, City
of Beloit: -
- The undersigned business firms and property
owners of the business district of Beloit respectfully
- petition your honorable Council that they
cause to be removed from the business streets, within the fire
limits, all poses and all wires running in and parallel with
the streets. These poles and wires are unsightly and a burden
to the property, as well as a menace in case of fire. We are
lead to present this petition at this time because of a well
founded report that the Bell Company have begun digging new holes
on State street, to erect larger poles, to carry more wires,
and it is reported their whole system is to be changed over and
rebuilt. Therefore we think this is a proper time for the laying
of cables underground, or overhead in the alleys, as the local
company has done. We ask that immediate action be taken in this
matter, or that the Mayor notify the Bell Company not to erect
any new poles in the business district pending the consideration
of this petition at the next Council meeting.

- Gentlemen: The undersigned property owners
on the east side of Park avenue, between Chapin and
