HILTON Mayor of the City of Redwood City I hereby approve the foregoing Resolution this 6th day of January, 1947. W. W. HILTON Mayor of the City of Redwood City City Manager Blom reported that he had been contacted by a Mr. Morrison who wished to start a rubbish removal system within the city and had requested an agree- ment or franchise from the city. He plans to make collections every two weeks and charge approximately $1.00 a month for the service. Mr. Blom stated that the city had a service which picked up rubbish on call but that it was over- loading the present personnel. There was some discussion as to the method in which the service would be rendered and to whom it would be available. City Manager Blom advised that he believed the city should keep jurisdiction over the matter as to the type of trucks used and the manner in which the rubbish was to be picked up. Councilman Werder moved, seconded by Councilman Armstrong that the matter be tabled until the next meeting for a further report from the City Manager after further meeting with Mr. Morrison. Motion passed unanimously. City Manager Blom reported that Fire Station No. 2 needed repairs badly. The majority of the floors will have to be replaced and the lower portion of the studs replaced inasmuch as they are dry rotted. It was estimated that the work would cost between $1000 and $2000. He waked from what fund the money should be taken. Councilman Armstrong did not believe that the money should be taken for repairs from the bond fund and, after some discussion, Councilman Britschgi moved, seconded by Councilman Werder, that the City Manager be authorized to proceed with the work of repairing the Fire Station No. 2 with the cost to be taken from unbudgeted reserve. Motion passed unanimously. X City Manager Blom reported that condemnation proceedings have been filed on property in the alley behind Main Street and the engineers, Wilsey and Broughton, and the appraiser have begun work on the project. il
