q [1. hereby formally protest against the work or improvement described in Resolution of Intention No.H-¢, passed and adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Town of Redwood City on the 6th day of April,1925, and against the extent. of the district to be assessed for said I proposed work, and as grounds of such protest specify: I. That there is no present urgent necessity for said work in the manner proposed, and that the present condition of the street..or streets therein involved is sufficient for a the accommodation of all travel thereon. II. That the proposed improvement will not benefit the property of the under - signed in any wise or at. all, or to any extent commensurate with the proposed cost thereof. III. That the proposed assessment district discriminates against .the property of t7ge undersigned by including the same within said assessment district while excluding other properties similaryly situated. That the proposed work or improvement is of an excessively expensive type and estimated to cost about thirty (30) cents a square foot by the use of Vibrolithic concrete, whereas an equally good, if not better, pavement could be provided by the use of plain concrete. which would cost including grading, not more than twenty-six (26) cents a square foot, and such concrete pavement would be more durable and have a longer life. V. That the propertties ofthe undersigned are in said assessment district; but said properties will not be benefited by said work and should be excluded from said district. Vi. That by reason of errors in said proceedings, the Board of Trustees of the Town of Redwood City has not acquired jurisdiction to charge the expenses of said improve- ment, or any thereof, to the property of the undersigned, or to any of the properties of the undersigned, and charge or lien against said properties of the undersigned. will be unenforcable and invalid. WHEREFORE, the undersigned pray that said proceedings be abandoned; that that the properties of the undersigned be excluded from said assessment district,atat.that in any event a less expensive type of improvement should be decided upon in that event that a your Honorable Board should determine to proceed with said improvement.
