City of Seattle
Mayor's Office
J T Ronald, mayor
City Hall
Seattle Washington Jan 1st, 1894
To the City Council:
Gentlemen:
In as much as the Board of Public Works has
referred to you the question as to when they shall commence work
upon the Front Street sewer, I most respectful wish to suggest
that now is, in my opinion, the most available time for the wor.
I am not mindful of the fat that the tearing up of the street
at this time will inconvenience the business men thereon, but we
should consider that the next two months are going to be severe
ones, from many standpoints, for the business men. They have
credited vast sums. The laborers of the city need the employment
to earn the money to pay these bills. The inconvenience to the
business men on Front and Commercial Streets will be less now than
it will do more good, so far as filling wants and satisfying dis-
content, is concerned, than $2.00 expanded in the coming summer. I
therefore earnestly recommend that you instruct the Board of
Publi works immediately to proceed with the construction of the
sewer on Front and Commercial Streets.
Very Respectfully
J T Ronald, mayor
