re ue.tin- e :ona,tion of 01,000. for the prpose of renting two rooms in the Hippodrome
Theatre euildine rat l2th and 13 em;i fit'tin_ them up as rest rooms. After some discussion
it was de ceded that other arr..ngemente could be made that would be more satisfactory
end tee opinion of council wee that the eppropriaation should not be made
.;heir..,e n ::efty etm.te3 that the wetter of comfort stations wee in the hands of the
eo -itteomen on peblic bui1dinea, who was authorized to confer with the oounby commisviot
.r. .rfert; The eoe...iaiionere have eereed to furnish the ground and pay one half the cone
of e odedine to be taken core of without expense to the city. I have nothing in writing
bet tr..t is s. verbal proauiee. I think if we establish rest roomed and a ooutfort station
over there et en exeenee of 23,000. the city's part 41,500. it would be better than
the `:ieendrorne proposition. We also have eseurenoe from er. Elder that if his plans
...i.ture he will provide comfort stations for ladies and gentlemen on his dock.
Atty. D. Price, reereainting :'r. E1•ser: We have plena here for the dock but that
portion to be use i for comfort station had not been inlicateed, but %ir. Elaer haa,a told
nee be v;,uld furniah the spece fcr these stations if the pity would keep them clean and
in ;rope.: condition. He wi:,; -Jive apace for two stations, one on either aide of the dock,
:r. Wh.rton: \4h :n will they be ava.ilaable .
'r. :'rice: We are now awitin•:- e permit and I arc here to secure your approval. I wish to
state on behalf of`:_r. ILlaer that he is willing to Give to the oity additional space
for reef rooms; the tier will be a recr. a ion pier and not for eorneerce, and by
eeeeptiee this you .:ill a ve the 5500. per year for rent on the Hippodrome rooms
•.ee el . er pie: will be w wary handsome one end all he requires from the city is that
tee stetion be ee ip. ed and rra.intaained and he will furniah the ace free of charge.
eere the plena for the building Jr. Elaer wishes to erect. The War Dept. is holding
up on the per:..it waitin_- for en expression from the city. The dock will not extend
out beyon: tee extensioe of the Yacht Club dock extension. The piera will be oonorcte
end .o constructed tnet it will not be unsanitary and interfere with the health or
welfare of the city. He is anxious to get the work started at once otherwise he will
not be abler to complete it by winter time and we would like for yeu to pass resolutions
to the effect that the city here no objection.
r. Hiehleyeen: How much further out will it go than the fair building?
Ir. Priee: I don't know the le th of th- fair building but this dock is 400 feet long
but ill b° etverel hundred fee his side of the channel
.r. Eller: The Fair :.,uil'a.in` is 175 feat long.
-r. Pri,)e : It will be en open look except the part next to the shore where these build-
ines .are to be erteted
r. Erfert: I don't think we should object to progress of that kind. We need not expeot
the Fair euieding to sovern the line; I don't see any harm in Mr. Eller extending out
„')` feet beyond the Fair Building.
er. Hiehley::a>a•n: It is up to the War Department to say whether they object to it going
ee far out. I hove no objection if we oan bind him up to give us the rest rooms
_;erpetuoe. -y.
.r. erfert: I know that :r. Eller realizes that such things must be =idea for on a
recreation :ier. I think he lahould put in the plumbing work if we look hater it, as he'
wva'�'i have to do so +anyway beoeuse it is necessary on a pier of that kind. He should
eemplete the building.
.r. :fty: v;hetheer he sraanta the city that privilege or not the people will take
a:lvaanteee of it.
r. Erfert: He should complete the building and the oity look after the care of the
