City to post more signs concerning parking ban for street sweeper work More signs about the 3 to 6 a.m. parking ban in the downtown area are going up, especially in the trouble areas where tourists are apt to park overnight, according to city street department plans. The schedule for the downtown area puts the big sweeper in action from 3 a.m. to 1 p.m. every day on Portage and Ashmun Sts.

and the connecting downtown streets, according to Orville Anderson, department superintendent. The residential areas, he said, are scheduled in such a way that every street should be covered at least once every two weeks. In addition, a hand crew of four men, with push brooms, shovels and a truck work from 5 to 7 a.m. on West Portage on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Anderson said the extra cleanup is necessary in this heavy tourist area where the parking aprons and curbs become littered in spots where the big sweeper cannot operate.

One of the big truble areas, he said, is Water Street and West Portage from Osborn to Asamun where Hotel Ojibway guests were apt to leave their cars overnight, hampering the cleaning operations. Quite a few additional signs pointing out the 3 to 6 a.m. parking ban are going up there this weekend he said, in an effort to alert visiting motorists to the city ordinance. The 3 to 6 a.m. parking ban, which is for both snow removal and dust control, has been on the books for Water, Portage, Maple, Ridge, Spruce, Arlington, Dawson and Peck for a number of years, he said.

Easterday Hill area to be without water July 31. residents told Residents of several blocks in the Easterday Hill area off Ash- jnun were warned today they will be without water in their homes for several hours Tuesday, July 31, and possibly again on Wednesday. Kenneth Perry, city water department superintendent said the water shut-off in this area is necessary in order to install two new hydrants and two valves in the vicinity before the a i 11 Street improvement project gets started in August. "All the blocks involved border on Davitt and the water main affected is also on Davitt," said Perry. He said the following blocks will be without water between 8 a.m.

and 4 p.m. next Tuesday: Those blocks between Davitt and Ryan from Easterday to Fourth those blocks on both sides of Parnell running south from Easterday: and on the south side of Easterday from. Ryan to Davitt. A second problem which the city encounters, which was discussed at the last city commission meeting, involves the cooperation of downtown merchants who sweep their sidewalks after the sweeper has done the street in front of their place. Commissioners pointed out that the merchants, sweeping up when they open shop, usually push the sidewalk litter into the gutter even though they are not supposed to, and the street looks then as if it had not been swept.

On the other hand, they said they realize the merchants don't want to settle for sweeping at the close of business because their sidewalks can become littered again in the evenings. Even in the areas where overnight parking is permitted, cars left for more than 48 hours in the same spot are considered as abandoned and a warning notice is put on the car. If it is not moved within the next 8 hours it is then ticketed. "We think we're getting the problems licked, one by one," Anderson said. "We have the big trouble areas downtown, and some spot areas in the residential districts where road construction is underway but we're hoping the additional signs will help." Copies of the ordinance are available at city hall.
