A concerted movement Is on foot
among tike retail merchants doing bnsl
n«u In Van Xe*s arcane to file a peti
tion with the supervisors to repeal the
ordlaance devlgaatlßs; the thoroughfare
\u25a0 * a boulevard In order to permit of
the POBStrnctioa and operation -of a
streetcar line. „
A meeting of Van Xess avenue mer
chants will be held some evening of
this week for the purpose of beginning
a campaign for the installation of a
trolley line along Van Ness avenue.
It will be first necessary for the super
visors to repeal the ordinance now on
the , statute books designating Van
Ness avenue as a boulevard because no
car lines are permitted to run In boule-
---«.- >s,. -> \u25a0=•
The merchants are of the opinion
that as the character of Van Ness ave
nue has been, changed from a residen
tial to a busines thoroughfare -the
reasons for having it a boulevard hay*
been eliminated- It 'is further be
lieved that a streetcar line will stimu
late business in the locality named.
It is planned to circulate petitions
requesting the supervisors to remove
th«? boulevard restriction from Van
Ness avenue. Should/the petitions be
granted the bar will be removed from
the operation of a car line in the
etrect.
Then petitions will be circulated re
questing the supervisors to offer for
sale to the highest bidder a franchise
for aji electric system to* run from
Market street along Van Ness avenoe
to the bay. It Is thought that there
\u25a0will be competitive bidding between
the United Railroads and the Ocean
Phore railway company. The last
named corporation \u25a0will have its ter
minal at Eleventh and Market streets
and a line a-long Van Xess avenue
•would connect therewith and be of
much advantage as a feeder to the
Santa. Cruz system of the company.
No doubt the rivalry between the
two corporations would result in sub
etantia.l amounts of money being of
fered for the fra.nrhise and the city
would thus gr^t sums approximating
•what the privileges wer« worth.
The fact that it is planned to have
the Sausalito ferries land near the foot
of Van Ness avenue In the near future
is considered another incentive for the
Van Ness avenue car line by the raer
chaats,interested s.nd plans for the ac
complishment of the improvement d«
iired will b« perfected at an "early
da.t*.
The businessmen interested in the
project were of the opinion that It
would be necessary to submit the ques
tion of taking Van Ness avenue out of
tfie boulevard class to a vote of tha
people. It was pointed out to them,
however, that such a course \u25a0would not
be required.
Mention was made of the fact that
the ordinance designating Nineteenth
avenue as a boulevard was repealed by
another ordinance passed by the board
of supervisors which left It free for
the Parkslde transit company to bid for
the franchise i thereon in connection
\u25a0with its Parkslde system. Another
ordinance was then passed creating
Twentieth avenue as a boulevard.
