A discussion was held regarding the request of the Capital City Water Company for the City to share 50% of the cost of relocating the water main on Missouri Blvd. , at a cost of i; $59107.00. It is the opinion of the City Attorney and the Director of Public Works that Missouri Blvd. is definitely not a city street but is actually highway right-of-way with a State i maintained roadway, and the City should not be responsible for relocations on right-of-way that we have no control over.

The Authority voted 5-3 to provide additional parking by construct ing an additional floor on the existing Parking Garage, and request that the Council endorse the recommendation of the Parking j i Authority by Resolution. Michael Riley and John Hahn, Members of the Parking Authority, '; 11delivered a minority report for the following reasons : (a) Have no objection to construction of a roof at approx- imately $150,000, but money was invested to keep it working so that it would not be necessary to worry about a Bond Issue when the I, lots have to be purchased from the Housing Authority. (b) Have no need for additional spaces at that location, as there will be 450 additional spaces within the next 18 months in the downtown area in the original commitment. (c) Any additional money should be used for parking on the south side. 221. __.
