The Committee on Fire Department submit;
ted the following report
7" IA Mayor oai ia" M C9unrl Il N, 'dgg 81 PI.i
Your Committee, to whom was referred the
plans Of the City Surveyor for three Reser-
voirs. in accordance with resolution passed
at a former meeting Of the Council, would re-
specially report that the plan and resolution
does not in the opinion OF your Committee
meet fully the necessity Of an abundant supply
Of water for domestic purposes and for the use
or the Fire Department
Your Committee would recommend that the
plan be modified so far as TO make but one res
ervoir, at the junction Of Oak and ' Inc streets,
capable of holding 1900 barrels OF water that
woolen or iron pipes be laid from tina, r,sef-
voir. along Oak. 81. Anthony and Third sts.,
to SibIey street. with hydrants at every block,
and, If necessary. branch pipcs AZ the cro@s
streets.
The advantage Of this plan over the one pro
posed il that the height Of the reservoir will
give q sufficient head Of water AMI an ample
supply 10 the residents along III" line OF those
streets In case of FIRE with a hydrant at
every block. the engine company have only TO
screw on their hose and they are supplied at
once. n the plan proposed ia adopted the en-
CINE wou'd have 10 bc taken 10 the reservoir
and be supplied by a suction PIPE. This would
occasion much delay. and perhaps severe l".s.
The plan "a proposed by your Committee
will not cost much more than the one referred
20 the Committee and in our opinion w'nld
b. mich more advantageous 70 the city, and
more eficcnt for the usc Of the Fire Depart
ment aud If adopted and carried ont. would
enable the city TO supply water for domestic
purposes, which at a fair rate would repay the
city in a lew years for III" whole outas
Your Committee would submit the following
letter from the City Surveyor on this subject
and recommend that the following resolution
he adopted
Resoirei. That the plan herewith submitted
