The street has been laid out fifty (50) feet wide measured at right angles southeasterly, and over the same course and within the same bounds as originally set aside for street purposes by the proprietors of the land over which said street passes.

The meeting which was held in the office of the City Engineer at 10:00 A. M., EST, on December 7, 1959 was adjourned until 7:30 P. M., EST, on December 9, 1959 at the same place. There appeared Description of Howey Street Page 2 at this meeting, 1n addition to the City Engineer and City Solicitor, the following residents: Scott B. Johnson, George H. Millet, N. E. Vetters, John T. Shields, Clifton H. Chapman and Dominick Meucci. All of the above persons except Dominick Meucci had been notified by mail of the meeting and had been advised of the estimated amount of the assessment which would be levied against the property as their proportionate share of the seat of the construction of Hawey Street. All these property owners objected to paying the amount of the asti- mated assessment which was based an one-third of the coat of the construction. This amount was somewhat higher than they had anti- cipated and they all indicated that they would be willing to pay an assessment on the basis of one dollar (¢1.00) per foot front. Mrs. Frances A. Weston, also a property owner on Hewey Street, sea unable to be present at the meeting but a letter written by her was addressed to the City Engineer's office in which she ob- jected to any assessment, feeling that it was the City's responsi- bility to provide suitable street areae aid, since she had been a resident on Hawey Street for some thirty years or more, she did net feel it was fair or just to be assessed for the construction of the street at this late date. The meeting was adjourned at 8:40 P. M., FST. If the City Council decides to approve the assessments on the basis of one dollar ($1.00) per foot front, the majority of the property owners are in favor of the construction end acceptance. If, on the other hand, the decision is to make the assessment on the basis of one-third of the wet of the construction, then the majority of the property owners are opposed to the construction and the acceptance of the street as a public wap. Description of Howey Street Page 3 A meeting was held on December 21, 19$9 by the Public Works Committee of the City Council for a further consideration of the acceptance of Newey Street.

After much discussion, the two residents present indicated that the majority of the property owners would be willing to pay their proportionate share of the coat of the construction of this street. The Planning Board has recommended that the street be accepted as a public way and the City Engineer recommends that the street as described be accepted and the grades as listed be established and that the street be named and known as Newey Street.
