Dear Friends: We would like to outline some improvements to downtown streets, which are virtually the same as those submitted to you last May. We were named by the Retail Trade committee at that.time last year to make a plan for furnishing additional parking for employed people, and in turn for our customers. Part of the plan we drafted was for long range consideration. We are outlining here the part which we would like to see gotten underway as soon as possible. Our suggestions follow: 1. Pavement widened on Bancroft Street from F'airhope Avenue to Morphy, and diagonal parking marked off for use on both sides of the street. 2. The east half of the block on Magnolia, between Section and Bancroft be widened on both sides, and diagonal parking marked off. • 3. We recommend that Johnson Street, from Section to Bancroft be paved to a curb, and diagonal parking marked off on one side of the'street if this is leasable, This would be a help with•cus- tomer parking also. 4. Will you examine Del Mar street to see if some yellow mark- ings can be eliminated? There is virtually no parking left in this block. Our committee, consisting of Be Be Gwyn, Mrs. Jessie Davis and 1, in a meeting on Friday, brought these recommendations up to date. Sincerely, 4 a4JA Ben Barnhill BB sBg Os Mobile Bay and U. S.
