There were no objectors Tuesday when the board of public works and safety conducted a hearing on the petition of the Owens-Illinois Glass Company for the vacation of lots in the vicinity of the plant. It is proposed to build a factory addition on the lots that would be vacated. The board confirmed the resolution.
Provision is made for the vacation of Ninth St. from Macedonia Ave. to Oakland Ave.; Shipley and Brotherton Sts. and Walling Ave. from Ninth to Eighth St.; Mock Ave. from the south line of Tenth St. to the alley between Eighth and Ninth Sts., and alleys.
The board directed the department of engineering to prepare as assessment roll showing the benefits and damages of such vacation.
