"Action postponed: Iron alley vacation ordinance met with opposition." Pittsburg Press, Sept. 10, 1897, p. 8. Newspapers.com 141936164.
At the meeting of the committee on surveys of Pittsburg councils yesterday afternoon, action was postponed on an ordinance vacating Iron alley from Second avenue to Greenough street (now First avenue), because $100 had not been paid to the city according to an ardinance [sic] requiring private parties benefited by the exaction of a measure to pay that amount to cover the expence [sic] of advertising. This objection was raised by George H. Stengel.
The committee approved the dedications of Fifty-fifth street by C. A. Cooper, and the Dollar Savings bank and N. Hartman's plan of lots in the Twenty-first ward. An ordinance repealing an ordinance repealing the location of Vista street, between Coral and Margaretta streets, was negatively acted upon. An ordinance locating Beatty street, from Center avenue to Beatty street, as located north of Baum street, was affirmatively recommended to councils.
