If he has not dedicated the property are steps being taken to oondemn
the property neoessary to straighten out N. W. 7th Avenue between those
two points? It is the understanding of this Association that the City
Commission desires to straighten out N. W. 7th Avenue and if there is
anything we oan do as an Assooiation to assist in this matter we re -
quest you to oall on us.
2: To whom have oontraots been awarded forthe paving of N. W.7th
