To the President and board of Aldermenof the City of Seattle, King
County Washington:
Your committee, to whom was referred the report of the
committee appointed by the mayor and common council of the City of
Seattle, under the old charter, to appraise the damages cuased by
the proposed extension of Broadway, a public street and highway,
of the City of Seattle, as provided for in Ordinance No. 1489,
beg leave to submit the following report:
1.
We have investigated the matter carefully, and after a
personal examination of the proposed extension of Broadway as pro-
vided for insaid Ordinance No. 1489, are of the opinion that the
extension of said Broadway as proposed is impracticable, and the
damage done to property would be far in excess of the benefits to
be derived therefrom.
11.
There are streets already laid off and dediated to pub-
lic use, running along and almost parallel with Broadway extension
which we deem can be made of public utility by grading and if nec-
essary, widening the same.
We therefore believe that it is not to the best interest
of the City to extend Broadway as proposed unde Ordinance No. 1489
and recommend that an ordinance be passed repealing Ordinance No.
1489.
And in Conclusion we desire to indorse the report made by
the committee of appraisers appointed to view and appraise the
benefits and damages of said Broadway extension as made heretofore
and heartily concur therein.
Respectfully Submitted
