In Reply please refer to
January 26, 1945 File No, 443
Ext. No. 480
Mr. Sam Tii. Wassell, Chairman
Fire Committee
Little Rock City Council
Little Rock, Arkansas
Mrs. Chas. J. Craig, Chairman
Parks Committee
Little Rock City Council
Little Rock, Arkansas
Dear Mr. Wassell, and
Dear Mrs. Craig;
I am addressing this letter to you as Chairman
of your respective Committees, since the subject is two-
fold and of mutual interest to both Committees.
On engineering and factual data that was sub-
mitted by this Department, the War Production Board has
authorized the construction of a reinforcing line to the
Pulaski Heights Section of the City, and due to the ship-
ping schedule of the pipe line materials a contract for
the construction must be awarded on or before March 2nd.
The route of this proposed line crosses Allsopp
Park, from a point on Hill Road to a point on Fairview
Road. The question of securing a right -of -way for this
pipe line across Allsopp Park was taken up with Mr. Powers,
City Engineer, who in turn discussed it with Mr. Jacoway,
and it was the City Attorneyts opinion that the granting
of a right -of -way should be in the form of an ordinance.
By crossing the Park, a considerable saving in construction
expense is made, and further there are some advantages
in having water available in City Parks for future use and
development.
Although this line is principally a primary feed-
er to reinforce the Section, it happens to traverse a route
where additional hydrants would be desirable. In company
with Fire Chief Carmichael, and Manager Suter of the Arkan-
sas Fire Prevention Bureau, a field inspection was made, and
Mr. S. M. Wassell and
Mrs. Chas. J. Craig
Page 2
Jan. 26, 1945
it was agreed that eleven hydrants would be desirable along
the route of this pipe line. Since it has been the practice
to install hydrants only by City Ordinance, this subject is
also included in the Proposed Ordinance.
In view of the time element action on the granting
of the right -of -way and the approval of eleven fire hydrants
should be made before the contract is awarded.
I am taking the liberty of sending a copy of this
letter to each member of your respective Committees, and if
you think a joint meeting is necessary to discuss this fur-
ther, I would be glad to attend.
I am also attaching copy of the Proposed Ordi-
nance.
Yours very truly,
A�
L. A. Jackson, Manager
