As Queen street was off by itself and 'not a thoroughfare the resi- Petition Is Opposed To Queen Street Sidewalk dents were the only ones affected and the petition was put in as a matter of record if and when sidewalks are considered. Vice-Chairman Mills who was in the chair in the absence of R. H. Hunt thanked Mr. Johnston and expressed the hope that more resi- dents would come to the board with their problems and that the petition would be-filed and given full con- sideration if and when sidewalks were considered. He added further that in his opinion relatively few people in the north area desired sidewalks and everyone would have an opportunity to voice their opin- ion before anything was done as in this acse sidewalks would be a local improvement, and charged against the properties.
