Wood the city's street
superintendent, the city
has been repairing some
of its streets with a mix
ture of stone and gravel.
Wood says about .ten
miles of the city's more
than J00 miles of city
streets have been
"repaired" ' with the
gravel and stone mix
ture. He said the city
cannot afford to pave all
its streets and that the
gravel and stone method
is the very best the city
can do. He contends that
the method works, but
; some residents disagree.
The 'gravel and stone
"messes up my car every
summer", ; ;said , one
longtime city resident. ,
"You can't even drive
on these streets."
"When are they going
to fix my street," said
oVic irate youngster as he
stood in front of his
home po Martha Street.
"Look at what this stuff
has done to my bike," he
added with indignation.
Wood said that city
problems
When asked why the ,
city did not pave all of its
streets, Wood said, "its
not practical for all the
streets. It is also toot
necessary." .J
He added that there
are injuries from the '
gravel and stone repaired
streets, but that they
result from people who
"don't look where 1 hey
are going."
'Wood said that all of
the city's, streets are in
spected for damage and
a decision is made con
cerning what to do with ,
them. The inspections
take place during the
wintertime and the repair
work is done mostly dur
ing the summer months.
The decision to put
down the gravel and
frnp : k an :. ad
ministrative decision, he
said. "There is no con
tact with the residents
and members of the
council are -not
involved,'-' he concluded.
