I would most respectfully renew the
recommendation contained in my last
annual message in regard to sewers and
their connections. The sewer report
will show on what an extensive scale
the work is carried forward. Some
very important ones have been nearly
finished during the last year. My re-
marks made last year relative to the
connections were as follows
81 would recommend TO the Council
to require. in all necessary cases, the
streets to be severed before they are
paved. in order to prevent the pave
ment from being disturbed when once
laid. To prevent the same from being
taken mp for the purpose of making
connections with the sewer, would
recommend that the Council take
proper steps to issue the contract, in
cluding the construction of the sewer
and making the connection to the curb, |
say every twenty-five, fifty, or one
hundred feet. according to the number
of occupied dwellings there are upon the
streets, and the size of the lots thus &C.
cupied These connections can be
made at much less expense when the
the sewer is open, than afterit is closed
and pavement laid upon the street.
As party who has paid his assessment
can receive no benefit from it II til a
connection is made, | consider it to he
to his advantage to make the connec-
ton above stated, and assess them up
on the property, together with the sew

ASSESSMENT ON STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
During the last two or three years
there have been completed and accept
ed by the Council number of street
improvements, upon which no assess
ments have been made. For these i'm
provements the City Council has issued
bonds, and is now paying interest upon
