Gentlemen: The undersigned hereby respectfully petition your honorable body for per- mission to erect and operate a slaughter h6 a upon Lots One (1) to Five (5)9 Block 1504 of the Northern Pacific Addition to the City of Anacortes. This location is at the South west corner of the intersection of Ohio Stroot and Second Avenue West in the city. We wish to state the following details in support of this petition: (1) All ordinances of the City and laws of the State shall be complied with in the erection and maintenance of said slaughter house. (2) The business would be operated under a wholesale license from the State and would be constantly under State supervision and direction. All rules ane regulations promulgated by the State Director of Agriculture regarding the disposition of effal, the abatement of odors and general sanitation would be strictly followed. (3) The site is relatively secluded lying in largely in -developed real estate, one full block off of Oakes Venue, and well away from any :^esidentiA centers. (4) The slaughter house would comprise a new industry for the city, employig full time a minimum of two men with definite possibilities of future expansion. It would also divert to Anacortes present outlets of beef going to other pacts of the County, and assist beef cattle farmers residing in and about the city. Should there be raised an objection to the above site, we would propose an al- ternate location situated in the Hensler 2nd Addition just south of Twentieth Street in Anacortes, though we deem the original site proposed the best from all possible views. We will welcome any opportunity to discuss this petition with the douncil,or any memb©rs thereof, at your convenience. The slaughter house operating permit has not as yet been obtained from the Director of Agriculture, as vie deem it only necessary and courteous to seek your approval of our plans before pro- ceeding further. We are interested in ?ocatifg this industry as soon as possible and will deeply appreciate your early considerationof this matter. ?respectfully, Verland L. Roundtree N.G. Rountree 1 • • C7 • 1 February 18, 1947 Contfd.

Honorable Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen: Please refer to the application of one Ray V. r?illard on February 4th, 1947 for two card table licenses. Mr. Millard reports that his is engaged in the garage and used car business at 1616-Com'1 Avenue and proposes to have two card tables situated in cabin #3 at the rear of the Time Oil Station at 17th stf°eet and.Oom' 1 avenue.

He rlould be assisted by 111r. Carpenter of 1202-1c/-th street, I have examined the above mentioned premises and do not feel that I can recommend V is enterprise inasmuch as the visibility of the card games from the street would be vefy poor from a law enforcement standpoint and also that I do not feel this cabin is a public ;dace.

On one job in Mount Vernon for B®zeman Canning Co. we waited nearly six months for paper to do the job, so I believe it would be wise to call for bids for reroofing this bptilding. I have taken the liberty of suggesting what I thing should be done to make a satisfactory job, (Valleys and sloping sides swept clean of all dirt and debris and using hot as- phalt, mop a 45 -lb. asbestos paper over present roof.) Asbesios is pliable a -d will adjust itself to contours of valleys, more so than ordinary felt. Flat section; repair all breaks in roof, then nail one 30 -lb. felt over present roof for a dry sheet. This will allow the sheeting to come and go with the weathee� without breaking through the paper, which is happening now for the reason the pre- sent roof is mopped to the boards. A ter felt is thoroughly nailed on seam, and through the center with long, large -headed roofing nails, mpg a 30 -lb. felt over • the nailed -on paper. vdhen complete area is covered, flood _Coat entire surface with hot asphalt, flashing all skylights, chimneys, vents, etc. ANACORTES ROOFING CO., AJC.

You are advised that si-nce the Grandview Cemetery was owned by the City of Anacortes during the entire year of 19469 no income tax return is required in its behalf.

We would appreciate an opportunity to assist you in checking the plans for this installation prior to your call for bids, so that our Engineering and Commercial Departmentsmay be completely informed of the details. At the present time we have no rate schedule filed with the Department of Public Utilities for street lighting service which features the use of mercury vapor lamps, so this matter creates somewhat of a problem for each of us. Any information you may provide would be appreciated. Sincerely yours, A.B.Couch, Sales Manager 3- lir s . , Chen®y To the Hon. Mayor and City Council Dear Sirs: The Anacortes Girl Scout Council would like to have permission to use the small cabin on the corner of Oa'kes Ave. and Baltimore Street as a meeting place for Mariner Scouts.

Let me thank you for your consideration of our problem. Very truly yours, Mrs. John N. Cheney Pres. Anacortes Girl Scout Council 4m Mrs, Robert L. Kelly Mr, Joe Hagan Dear Sir: As Mayor of Anacortes you may be able to give me some information I want, I'm hoping you can. Here at our home on Guemes Island we have sold a small building which is to be moved out. In cleaning up to put skids under this building we have found many years accumulation of junk of various so-.rts-4 old stove pipe tin cans broken dishes etc. etc. At present there is no place for garbage disposal on Guemes and I wish to know if I might be permitted to have this garbage hauled over to the City Garbage Dump. I have burned everything that can be burned such as old shoes, papers and rags, but there still remains quite a lot ol rubbish to be disposed of, which, of course, I cannot have lying about on the premises. Also please let me know if there would be any charge by the City for this se -vice, or if the cost of hauling would be all of -the expense incurred. Respectfully yours, ?:yrs. Robert Kelly John T.Sampson Dear Pyr. Dorcy: After our telephone conversation this noon Mr. Howell and I discussed the matter and decided it would be better to re3ect all bids and not.take up the matter of buildint by force account with Mr. Anderson. At one time, Mr. McCrory and I discussed the possibiltiy that the bids might run over the estimated amount and in which case it might be advisable to go ahead and do the work under the -supervision of Art Lovell. In fact, the question came up at the Council meeting at the Community Building on the evening of Jan 9th. In building in this mann-r you could save in the book work and some on the contractor's overhead and proLt, We are of the opinion thatyou could proceed with the work by building the Shop and Garage Building and that portion of the City Hall as the amount wuold allow and the balance could be done from funds made available. By omitting the finishing of the exterior walls and the floor covering in the offices, y -)u would be able to cut quite a bit out of the cost. We also, in order to make more funds available for the building, and because of my personal interest in the project, are wi'.ling to make our fee on a flat sum basis or R% of the estimated cost of $22,000.00, or a total sum of $1.760.00 First less the payment received 31,320.00, leaving a b9lance of $440,00 for our supervision of the work. Trusting that you will find a way to go ahead with the work and t* -at the State Board will cooperate with you in consideration df things I am Very truly yours, John T. Sampson P.S. If the Council wishes to discuss the matter further with meg Please let me know in time so that I can make arrangements to be away. J.T.S.

The following Communication vias presented and read to the City Council-, Honorable Mayor & City Council: We the undersigned merchants on the west side of Commercial Avenue in the south part of the City do believe that your attention has not been called to the inconvenience it is to us that the morning supply trucks such as the Pacific fruit Company, Langendorf, Schafer and Buchan's Bakeries, ;Iso the Highland Beverage Company, all feel the inconvenience of carrying or tJaucking their goods across the pavement through the auto travel to our stores, Most of them drive up town serving those on the east side leaving us on the west side until their return, which is noon or nearly so, making it impossible for us. to deliver any of their goods on the forenoon delivery. With the strawberry season here and us facing the tomato, cantaloupe, watermelon, apricot and peach season we are going to suffer some loss, with the lateness of receiving these perishable goods. If the above trucks could have a permit to unload on the west side of Commercial it would help. 1 • • Anacort, Incline at 1015 -7th Street Request ' for Delivery trucks to park on left side of street 1 C� 1 ,35 June 3,.19479 Continued.

Tho following letter from the Port of Anacortes was presented and read to the City Council PORT OF ANACORXES, Anacortes Washington. July 19 147 g® the Honorable Mayor and City Council: The Port of Anscortes contemplates the erection of a warehouse on Mock Thirty, Original Plat, completing its present warehouse unit to fill tto remainder of the Block easterly of the present. In doing so it is advisable for the benefit of the community that every foot of possible space be utilised for warehouse purposes so as to make the warehouse as workable as possible.= Zn-;c6hftection with the erection of such a warehouse a feature willbe needed, which if placed upon the property mould thereby lessen the available space and seriously increase the cost of construction, namely, the placing of a plat- form hoist for handling the cargoes. The Port respectfully petitions permission from the City to place this item outside'the property line on Commercial Avenue adjoining the ware- house. This would be in platform nature and in no wise interfere with the usual and customary use of C6mmerciall, Aoenua nor in anywise create any hazard in the use of Commercial Avenue. Cost of construction would be borne entirely by the Port9 so there would be no financial obligation of the part of the City. As the Port plans mediate action upon its construction, wer!vould appreciate prompt �Answet',to this request. , PORT OF ANACORTES By (Signed) Berent Rydberg, Q0 P. C. Dybbro, ue I. E.

Hagan and read to the City.Council.4 it Honorable Mayor ;and Council City Hall Anacortes, Washington ' _Genu:®men o b The Housing Authority of Anscortes, Washington, wishes to advise the City Council and the Payor of present occupancy conditionsatRay View Homes. According to occupancy limitations we are allowed to house veterans and servicemen only, and for tft past six months we fuvo had continuted vacancies after filling the needs of these two groups, The vacancies at the and of the month during this period average 18. For the past six months ve have also had a list of families falling in a classification other than veterans and servicemen who had hopes of securing housing. This list of applicants has at times been Mica as long as the list of veterans and servicemen and at the present time stands as follows: total, 36p veterans, 129 servicemen, 69 others, 18. As you can see, applications still come in from this group even though they are advised they are not eligible. The total monthly gaiting list for the last six months averages 279 9 veterans, 12 servicemen, 6 others. For this reason we believe it is time to ask for a relaxation of housing restrictions so thai are may be able to accommodate any distressed Families in need of rental housing. When restrictions are relaxed, veterans will still receive first preference for housing, servicemen second, and others third. At the time the City Council passed the original resolution authoriwing formation of a housing authority an acute housing shortage existed because of wartime condition Today there is still an @acute rental housing shortage in Anacortes especially for families with children as evidenced by our waiting list. Real Esiat© offices and newspaper offices In our community can substanti6te this statement. In order to secure relaxation of present restrictions, the Federal Housing Wiority needs a letter of substantiation of the abovo facts From the City Council and the Mayor. Such a letter should state that surplus units are available aftoT the needs of distressed families of veterans and servicemen are met, that an acute rental housing shortage exists in the community and that the community desires that termination og the project be deferred. Your consideration is earnestly requested. Respectfully yours HOUSING AUTHORITY OF ANACORTES, 2ASH. ,$ybiA HRnsen Executive Director Mayor Joe L.

An acute rental housing shortage still exists, especially for families with children, in this community - a result of curtailment of private building during war time.

Considerable water, as you no doubt know, will be used if a fine turf is to be grown and maintained.

The law as enactod by the last legislature granting this privilege to municipal employees reads as follows: "Any city of the second, third or fourth class may contract insurance with an company authorized to do business in this state to provide group insurance for .its employees and pursuant thereto may use a portion of its revenues to pay an employer?s portion of the premium for such insurance, and may mak© deductions from the payrolls of employees for the amount of the employees contribution and may apply the amount deducted in payment of employee's portion of the premium." There is a definite need for this type of coverage'for municipal employees°v heretofore, they have not been given equal privileges as compared with commercial employees.

Would it be possible to secure enough space in the old city hall for our quarters' Should we be allowed such space we, sould, or course like to have i� clearly understood that it would not be just a temporary move bu� a "homeBQ for as long as the need lasts as we have quite a lot of cupboards, etc, to mono it would not be worthwhile it we were only allowed a few months. We will appreciate your prompt action on this matter. In the event that other plans have been made to utilize the top portion of the cith hall, we would welcome any suggestion as to suitable quarters elsewhere. Sincerely Mrs. J.W. Reynolds Chapter Chairman Mrs. Warren Amerman Executive Secretary After some discussion, a motion was made by Clausius and seconded by Brado that the Red Cross be allowed to move into the offices to be vacated by the Anacortes Water Department.

McMaster made a verbal price quotation of $250.00 for a complete double -sided sign 4,xA61, the letters being I" high, installed on the new City Hall. The City Council asked Mr. McMaster to write a letter to them verifying this quotation. The following letter from Mr. Ben Van Deusen of the Anacortes Equipment Company was presented and read to the City Councilo, Mr. T. G. McCrory, City Engineer City of Anacortes Dear Mr. McCrory: The delay in furnishing an estimate on the cost of repairing the damaged sectioti of the street lighting circuit in front of the Benson Motors was caused by the shortage of proper high voltage wire for the job. Parkway cable and Trenchlay wire for direct burial are abailable only on order i from the factory in 1000 ft. minimum lots at approximately $315.00 and $205.00 per thousand. It therefore appears to me that the best solution is to make use of a {' piece of 5000 volt rubber covered wire 372 ft. in length, which is available from Puget Sound Power and Light Co. This wire would have to'be installed in conduit, but would provide the best repair job. For removing and replacing concrete installing 1B0 #6-5000 , g galvanized conduit, volt rubber covered wire, and replacing the 2 #4051 Line Material cutouts, our price is $273.45. This arrangement would give the city enough wire for two future repair jobs. i; It has been called to our attention by the local office of Puget Sound Power s and Light Co. that there are two faulty pole cutouts located elsewhere in the system. These could be replaced at the same time at a cost of $7.82 each plus installation. Yours very truly, Ben VanDeusen After some discussion Mr. T. G. McCrory recommOed the acceptance of the Ana- cortes Equipment Company to repair a damaged section of the street lighting circuit to 1 • • 1 1 is u 1 5 .� 9 in front of the Benson Motors as was outlined in the above lettere A motion was made by Dodge and seconded by Brado that the recommendation of the City Ungin« 6er.to accept the offer of the Anacortes Equipment Company to repair the street lighting system at the above described location be accepted. The following letter from the Anacortes Chapter of the Red Cross was presented and read to the City Cotincila To the City Council John Corcy, City Clerk City of Anacortes Washington Gentlemen-, First, we would like to express our thanks to you for your consideration in offering the Chapter a "home1° in the old city hallo Your kindness is much ap- preciated and the rental cost was very fair,, However, when we applied for space in the building we assumed the heaters would be left there and that we could either rent them or purchase them for a nominal sum. After much deliberation and careful planning we have decided that our budget will not allow the purchase of two oil heaters and we understand that it is quite nec- essary to have two for those high ceilinged rooms. Also in view of the fact that no guarantee could be secured as to the length of time we would be allowed to stay there, we deemed it wisest not to invest in new heaters. - As you may recall when we were informed of the necessity of vacating the Community Buildifg Iasi May, we immediately made application for space in the Post Office building,, Mr. Dalstead, although most sympathetic and cooperative toward our needs could not allow us to move there without first securing permission from the Post Master General and a letter stating our requirements was at once dispatched to Washington D.C. When no reply was forthcoming it was assumed that we would not -be granted space in that building. On Friday, Sept. 12th, a reply was received stating we could occupy a room in the basement of the Post -Office at no cost to the Federal Government. We have to admit that the room is not really adequate for our needs but taking into consideration the lower administrative costs to the Chapter, it is our cheapest way out and the Red Cross will move into Room b of the basement the latter part of this week. We are requesting your forbearance until the room is ready for our occupancy, and we are assured by the Postmaster that we can move this week. , We would appreciate it very much if permission could be secured from the Council to store one of our large Emergency cupboards in this building, preferably in the basement dining room. This cupboard would be filled with emergency supplies in case of disaster, and will be pad -locked. Will you kindly inform us if such permission is granted? May we extend our best wishes for a happy and successful future in your new quarters. Anacortes will now have a city building they may well be proud of and we all..realize what a big job it has been to make this dream possible,, Sincerely, (Mrs. W.) Barbara Amerman Executive Secretary ii A motion was made by Clausius and seconded by Dodge that permission be given I� to the ;Red Cross to store their emergency cupboard in tke basement of the Community Belding,, Motion Carried.
