The Cleri.: drew attention to the request of Harry 1L.
Francis and 0. L. Fleming for an estimate of the cost of repairing
Collin�;tivood Street froi3onita Vista Avenue to Hillcrest Avenue, which
letter, was filed with the Board one year ago, action thereon having
been delayed so lonrr in anticipation of the city of Los Angeles
establishing an official grade on said street as requested by this
board. Having failed to do so up to this date, and Collingvrood Street
61-Q - in Practically an im?)assable condition, it was believed desirable
to give relief and by general consent the Street Superintendent was
instructed to prepare an estimate of the cost of iml) roving the city's
portion of the thoroughfare.
Trustee Davis inquired whether or not the Board desired to
em-I)loY an experienced traffic officer while the '_:arshal is on his
