COMMUNICATIONS From W. C. Martin to -wit: February 17, 1958 To the City Council Port Townsend, Washington. Sometime ago the residence at 22nd and Hill Streets petitioned the City Council for a light at the corner of 22nd and Hill Street. At that time it was impossible to place a light at this corner without running additional wire which would involve too much expense. I understand they now have a setup whereby they can place a light on any pole where light wires now exist. Since we have a number of small children within the radius of this light, we would appreciate it very m:1ch if the Council would reconsider our petition. Thanking you for any favor in this matter. Yours truly, W.C. MARTIN 22nd and Hill It was moved by Councilmen Lindsey and seconded by Councilmen Steve that a Street light of 100 watts be installed at 22nd and Hill St. Upon roll call vote all six Council- man present voted in the affirmative and motion carried.
