i Davenport Bettendorf Iowa TIMES-DEMOCRAT 8 Wednesday, July 21, 1965 for Mrs. George Gillis. 64, of Anderson, Mrs. Lucille Beck, Corvallis, and Mrs. Home here, with burial in Ando-ver Cemetery.

Born in Andover Township, Mr. Hogren was a resident in FORMERLY AT ARSENAL William Bieberbach Funeral Is Thursday Couple File Suit Over Road Land A Butler Townshio farm cou ple Tuesday appealed to Scott County District Court from con demnation action by which i.u3 acres of their property was taken for a county road grading project. William P. and Mary K. Flenker accused county supervi sors of acting "illegally in taxing possession of the property" which is oart of their farm south of McCausland.

The Flenkers asked the court to order title to the property returned to them or award them $10,000 damages. The supervisors recently approved a $613.25 condemnation award for the Flenker property which was taken for right-of-way in connection with grading a 1.703 mile section of secondary road. The award was protested by the Flenkers at a public hearing June 25 but the board of super visors rejected the protests at a July 1 meeting. Simon W. Rasche Clinton attorney representing the Flenk ers, argued that his clients were deprived of a "fair and Impartial hearing." The suit filed Tuesday contends the supervisors acted ille gally because they had entered into a contract lor the road jod in advance of the condemnation hearing.

Delay Data, On Davenport Reappraisal It will be at least another six months before information will be released to Davenport residents on how the city's professional property reappraisal program will affect their individual tax bills.

A work schedule adopted by the Cole-Layer-Trumble Co. of Dayton Ohio, which is undertaking the city's giant reevalua-tion program, calls for public hearings on the program sometime after Jan. 1 when 1966 assessment rolls are mailed to city taxpayers. First Hearing Officials of the reappraisal, firm will conduct the first hear-, tags. Taxpayers who are not satisfied with the company's explanation of valuation adjustments may take their problems before the Davenport Board of Review next May or appeal the valua- tions to district court.

While new property record cards are scheduled to be turned over to the office of City Assessor Ted Goodwin about' this time, Goodwin said the office will not be able to answer individual Inquiries about valuation increases until after the first of the year.

Street Light Cable Being Put in Place By JIM KADERA A two-inch thick electric cable is snaking its way into narrow trenches in downtown Daven port as the street light modern ization project hits full stride. Merchants and other property owners in the downtown core and two other commercial dis tricts are paying some 1200,000 for better street illumination Intended to attract more business and reduce traffic dangers.

Downtown brightness will be increased from 1.7 to 7.2 foot-candles which con- suiting engineers rate as a "whiteway" system capable of providing mercantile attraction after sundown. Earlier this summer, the Citv Council awarded the contract to Edwards Construction Gen-eseo. III. which submitted the low bid of $208,617. Completion deadline is mid-December.

124 Poles Henry Bvant. cltv electri cian, said the firm is laying cable now. After that phase is finished, 124 new light poles will be installed downtown and the old ones taken down. Fifty-two of the old Doles then will be installed at 100 foot in tervals on both sides of Brady Street from Fifth Street to Locust Street, where the roadway will be illuminated at 1.2 foot- candle power level, rated adeauate for traffic safety. Property owners blamed poor street lighting for numerous traffic accidents on Brady.

On some corners, drivers have difficulty seeing pedestrians crossing the street at night, they said. Locust Street Another 57 of the existing poles will be relocated on West Locust Street at 50-foot inter vals from Marquette Street to Davie Street where the light intensity will be 2.5 foot-candles ror traffic safety and "intermediate" business area attraction. While nearly all of the con struction costs will be assessed to property owners in the areas, added electricity costs to keep the lights operating will be paid by the city.
