JOHN B. HAWLEY, CONSULTING ENGINEER, MEMBER AMERICAN SOCIETY CIVIL ENGINEERS, CITY ENGINEER, FORT WORTH.
FORT WORTH, TEXAS, July 4th 1902.
Gentlemen:
In the matter of the attached petition of Elbert G.Rall, and others asking that a culvert be constructed on Lipscomb St. between Pennsylvania and Cochran Sts. beg leave to report that the length of the culvert would be 200 feet, and cost per foot about $7.00, making a total of $1400.00.
The situation can be greatly relieved by thoroughly cleaning the existing ditch, and paving it with cobbles, at a probable cost of less than $100.00.
Respectfully, John B. Hawley City Engineer.
