pavement was not being properly replaced On his motion last night the council delegated the committee on streets and alleys to Visit the street this morning It was found that several unnecessary excavations had been made and the company hereafter will be required to drill holes lo locate the leak before the streets are opened to make repairs The Brooks Construction company laid the pavement
