The two projects now L,ederway with fiscal agent services are, according to the Public; Works Department, proving to be very satisfactory and are showirg a saving to the Ci+y and to the property owners. The necessary storm drairs can be constructed while'the legal procedure for the paving is in progress, and wil•i not cause a delav in the street constuc tion. • Because this proiec* was not aIticinmled In t'me for this year's program, It is necessary that it be financed from the 1960 Bond Sale. It is recom- . mended that an appropriation reonest for $139,000.00 be approved from 94 Bond Fund, 1960 Bond Sale to pby the anticipated cost to the City. The appropriation request to finance the storm sewer construction will be made at a later date. However, provic;ion• for the funds will be made in the next sale of storm sewer bonds.
