voirs No. l. neal BelleviIie, and reservoir
Nos. 2 and 3 GU Summit avenue, present.
ed this day by the Chief Engineer. be and
are hereby adopted bv this board. do
not think there is an immediate necessity
for n new conduit. As | understand 1t, the
need OF a new conduit is based on the
insecurity of he present cement one. l
have made inquiry as to that, and am
a advised that the cement conduit can per-
form it's present service e, and in case OF
Drea kaRe, can be readily repaired.
The amount allowable for n new con-
duit by The law passed by the last Legis-
lature is so much in excess OF the cost of
the last conduit built across the meadows
that / would refuse to approve of this
resolution until / am better advised as to
the whole matter.
Very respectfully,
PETER F. WANsER.
Received aud laid over for one week.
