Reilly Joseph earlier built 79-unit development at 2250 Layard Ave. and at Byrd Avenue and Ohio Street, also under government-subsidized programs for senior citizen rental housing. City Planner Thomas Wright said the city committee recommended a sales price of concerned about the liming and Ihe idea that "unless we 'jump' tonight" certain stale or federal funds, would really be lost.

Sometimes the strings aitached. he said, aren't worth the cost. Aid. 1I SUK'kweil, 14th, in whose district ihe land is located, said the city needs senior citizen housing. It was Joseph, he said, that first approached the water, utility seeking the land and "months ago canio up with a design." Wright said the city's federal development funds application must show housing assistance and Reilly Joseph has told the state It will meet another requirement and obtain a site in the area for family duplex housing.

That meant developers were told Thursday their proposals were needed Friday Recommendations, he said, were based on site and building design. James Van Susteren told aldermen his firm design screened out the view of the water tower to. the south. More time would be helpful, he said, and a check would show Racine will qualify for additional fund allocations if it misses the Sept. 30 Aid.

Council rejects proposal for leaf-raking to gutters Racine residents still can't rake leaves into the gutter.

That was decided Tuesday by the City Council, which turned down a Department of Public Works proposal to pick up piles of leaves from the street. Public Works Commissioner, Fred Larson said it would cost less in the long run, because the city picks up the leaves one way or another. His plan would use front end loaders and trucks to collect piles raked into gutters. "The strongest argument," Larson said. Is it would be more convenient for property leaves wouldn't be put into bags or cans after being raked.

"1 can forsee calls: 'Hey, I raked my yard, then my neighbor raked his and now the leaves are blowing all over my lawn Heck said. Boehme said slippery leaves left in streets would bring safety problems loo. On the M-3 vote, favoring Larson's proposal to allow leaves to be raked into the gutters for collection were aldermen Hayek, Turner and Barry, Opposed were Eastman, tilers, L'rsklne, Heck, Knudsen.

had another view of the non-rakers. "I don't think the person who doesn't rake them now will do it just because he can rake ihem into the street." Aid. John Otto, 16th, doubted the city would cut costs by adding a service. Solid waste crews wouldn't be reduced just because they don't pick up leaves, he said, and as leaves pile up in the street he could see overtime for other employes. Aid.
