Engineer Thorp recommended to the Council that the plans, as
adopted be carried out, without change excepting the Cobbs' stone
wall could be moved back onto their propertw and the fill shown
on the plans as between the curb and their propert~v line, would
be held by their wall and it ~uld not then be necesssrw to have
a slope extend onto their lawn.
The Council took no formal action except to state to Mrs. Cobb
