Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the 1907 ordinances that created a new contract between the city of Chicago and the surface and elevated railway companies. The author, serving as the Chairman of the Board of Supervising Engineers, was heavily involved in the drafting of this ordinance and shares his observations and insights on its provisions. The book provides a rich historical context on the state of public transportation in Chicago at the turn of the 20th century and discusses key debates surrounding the ordinance, including the role of the Board of Supervising Engineers and the division of profits between the city and the companies. The author also highlights the broader significance of these ordinances, which attracted attention nationwide and influenced settlement ordinances in other cities. Through a detailed analysis of the ordinance's terms, the author illuminates the complexities of urban transportation management and the balance between public and private interests.
