Your Committee to which was referred the reports of the City Engineer
respecting the plans and specifications of the proposed Jefferson Stree-t
Improvement District and the cost of the same, together with an estimate of the
assessment against each lot abutting upon said proposed improvement, begs leave
to report that it has considered the report s of the City Engineer, and finds
that the same conform to the requirements cf the statute in such case made and
provided. That part of the City Engineer's report containing "orm of proposals
and draft of contract for construction of proposed improvement are not to be
considered as being a part of our report in the matter of plans .nd specifica-
tions for said District, as the committee is advised that these are matter for
future action of the Council, after an ordinance has been passed and adopted
authorizing the improvements in question and providing for the awarding of a
contract for the construction of the same.
The committee has had the committee prepare a resolution covering the
matter of adoption of the plans and specifications and estimates of the City
Engineer, and the Committee recommends the adoption of this resolution, after
inserting the period of time which shall cover the payments for the proposed
improvement, as well as fixing the date of meeting for hearing complaints re-
specting the cost of the same, and the assessments upon the abutting property.
Respectfully Submitted, F. A. Mathews

those as given by the American Society of Civil Engineers, soeme of which are named
below.

must pass through a No._200 Seive.
Neat cement mixed with twenty per cent of its weight of water shall allow no
cracks or distortion when formed into pats one half (g) inch thich at the center, and
havin- sharp edges and allowed to set under a wet cloth on glass for twenty four hours
and then placed in fresh water for twenty eight days or in boiling water or steam for
six hours and then allowed to cool.
The specific gravity of the cement must not be less than three and one -tenth
(3.1)
The cement shall not acquire its initial set in less than ten (10) minutes and
must not acquire its final set in less than one (1) hour,
. Neat briquettes show a tensile strength of 175 pounds per square inch after setting
under a wet cloth and placed under waterfor the remaining twenty-four hours. Must
show 500 pounds tensile strength per square inch after seven days and 600 pounds per
square inch after twenty-eight days. Briquettes mixed one part of cement and three
parts of standard sand must show a tensile strength of 200 pounds per square inch after
seven days, and 220 pounds per square inch after 28 days.

state, by turning with shovel or hoe until the mixture is of a uniform shade and free
from lumps of sand and cement. water shall then be sprinkled over, the mixture while it
is '-being turned. The,mixing shall continue until the mortar becomes of a uniform
dampness throughout. Sufficient water must be used in the mixing to insure the closing
of all voids by a moderate amount of ramming. The, mortar mixed concrete must come up
to these requirements. , In ramming the concrete all the voids can only be insured by
slight quaking during the ramming. The concrete shall be thoroughly tamped intoplace.
SURFACING OF CURB AND GUTTER.
The top or wearing surface shall be made of one (1) part cement and two (2) parts
of clean, coarse, sharp sand free from dirt and loam, this sand and cement shall be

duce a mortar of the desired consistency, and the whole well mixed until a homogeneous
mass is produced. The mortar while fresh shall be spread upon the curb or gutter (core;
before the latter has reached its initial set. The core of the concrete curb and gutte3
shall be plastered in the way stated before the concrete core has set in order that a
homogeneous bond may be insured. The surface of the curb And gutter shall then be out
into sections, the marking to be made directly opposite and over the expansion joints
in the concrete core of the curb and gutter. The finished work shall be what is known
as a float or wood trowel. finish. All concrete work shall be kept wet for a period of
seven (7) days either by, covering with tar paper and kept moist, or by sprink..ing with
a hose.
CROSSWALKS.

furnished from time to time as they are required.
BLIND DRAINS.
These drains are to be constructed. of first class quality vitrified salt glazed
Sewer pipe, to be eight inches in diameter and to be laid to the grade as given by the
Engineer. The joints are to be cemented with mortar of the consistency as designated fc
the plastering of the curb and gutter. These blind drains are to be placed at street
crossings,
And be it further resolved by the City Council of the City of Fort Collins that the
