Show City Property Owners Give Land For Widening Lane The widening of the lane running run-ning west from Main street through the center of the block between the Taylor cafe and the George Rasmussen property, a project which has been under consideration for several years will likely be undertaken within a few weeks it is announced by Mayor E. Ray Lyman. The project pro-ject will be done by Parowan city. - The lane, now approximately two rods wide will be given an additional 12 feet, making it similar sim-ilar to the lane directly across main street which runs east and which was widened, graded and oil-sun'aeed last year. The owners own-ers of the property on the south side of the lane are donating the 12 feet of land to provide for the widening project, with any remuneration re-muneration they get coming from the enhanced value of their property prop-erty by reason of making this a residential thoroughfare. Whether this project will be completed this year to an oil-surfaced oil-surfaced street isn't definite but Mayor Lyman states that the city may undertake the oiling of additional addi-tional city streets this fall, and if that takes place this new street will be finished. |
