PMoLuTzorl No. 499
W-IERF,AS, the traffic control and signal system of the City of
Paris, regulating and controling vehicular t:~affie upon the pla,za
and adjacent streets thereto, has become out of repair and in such
bad condit,ion that such systean can no longer be safely used unless
new controls, lines, signals and other items necessaril,y incident
thereto are purchased and installed; and
Because of the traffics hazard existing by reason of the un-
safe and unuseable condition of such system it has become necessary
for the City of Paris to immediately purchase and instalZ sufficieilt
new lines, controls and equipment to place such system in condition
to adequatel,y and properl,y regulate and control vehicular and
pedestrian traffic with safety in the City of Paris; and
Wi"r,REASj, the original budget appropriation for the current
fiscal year did not provide sufficient funds for the purchase and
installation of the equipment needed to effect necessary repairs
thereto and there are not sufficient funds on hand in the budget
account set up for such matters, but there is on hand in the con-
tingent fund an unappropriated and unencumbered balance in excess
of the amount necessary for such purposes and the circumstances
herein set out constitute an emergency ~'ave public necessity
