UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS Re: Dog Licenses Councilman Sullivan stated that in as much as dog licenses for the year 1947 were now due and payable, it might be well, in view of the presence at this session of a representa- tive of the local newspaper, to ask that this matter be publicized therein. Re: City Hall Improvements Councilman Sullivan reported that the renovation of the city hall by removal of the third story and completion of a new roof was progressing satisfactorily, and stated that he felt that the program of improvement to the city hall should be enrried further by the re- moval and destruction of obsolete records, and the proper storage of such records as should be kept, most of which were now in a jumble in unused rooms on the second floor. It was moved by Councilman Gleason that a competent person be employed to sort, file and index engineering records, such as maps, tracings, etc., and that other records be sorted and destroyed, where possible, under supervision of the City Attorney. This motion was seconded by Councilman Sullivan and carried by voice vote of the members present. Committees Named Mayor Anderson, at this time, submitted his list of members of the council appointed to the various standing committees, stating that in as much as the committees, as consti- tuted during the past term, have been functioning well, he had made no changes except the appointment of the newly elected councilman, George Osborne, to those positions on commit- tees previously filled by Councilman Ylm.

Motion carried. Postscript \ Following adjournment it appeared that Mr. Clark Aldrich had wished to make a comment before the council upon the proposed establishment of a new highway route from the peninsula area to Seattle. All councilmen being still present, informal session was resumed. Mr. Aldrich presented a plan of the proposed route, action taken to date thereon at various adr�ia meetings, and objections to such a route from the standpoint of the average traveler from this district. This subject was discussed pro and con at some length, and terminated by the motion of Councilman Carroll that the Mayor be authorized to submit a request by telegraph to the , appropriate department of the state government for public hearing upon the establishment of ;v t, the proposed route,to be held in this city before final determination by the state upon such a route. This motion was seconded by Councilman Osborne, and upon voice vote, was declared r"t x carried. P.
