Oliver Grundvig. Mayor Greeen referred the above communication tXX to the Fire & Light Committee. February 27, 1961 - To -wit: To: The City Council, Port Townsend, Washington Subject: Request for Street Light. We, the undersigned, hereby respectfully request that a street light be installed at the corner of Clallam and McKinley Streets, on the East side of the street. The above mentioned area is badly in need of lighting, and we feel that installation of a street light would contribute materially to the safety and well-being of the children and adults of the neigh- borhood as well as discourage acts of vandalism and/or destruction of property. Sincerhly yours, Charles Hollander Leo Ziel Oscar A. Lee Mayor Green referred the above communication to the Fire & Light Committee. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council of Fort Townsend, 'Washington to -wit: We, the undersigned, property owners of the North Beach District of the City of Port Townsei Washington, respectfully petition for the following installations therein: 1. That the City street lighting system be extended to include the intersection of 57th and Jackmann Streets. Five now residences build in that vicinity recently will benefit thereby. 2. That a fire hydrant be installed at the same intersection to facilitate fire fighting apparatus hho ld the need arise to protect private property in that vicinity. 3. That the actions indicated in 1, above be further extended to include a street light on the light pole in the vicinity of 59th and Bill streets not only for the purposes of illum hating the area including nearby newly constructed residences, but more appropriately as an effective detorent to nocturnal visitors in their frequent use of that area as a lovers lane. The physical evidence of such use is hardly conducive to a favorable impression of our fair City, and is there for all visitors to see. Albert H. Krause, Elva G. Krause, Lester H.Hall, Leta C.
