In the matter Of assessment for sewers, it
has been suggested that the usual custom
in cities, if pursued, would be the most
feasible, equally fair for the town and
an entirely satisfactory arrangement for
the AUDITORS. TIE town should hold back
/. or lay over certain part of the ASSESS
ment to cover the amount of extra ex-
pense occasioned by the use of the large
pipe. A ten inch sewer would have been
sufficient to drain the territory for which
the AUDITORS on Stanford street were
assessed, tut two foot sewer was needed
to conform with the arranged system to
carry off the drainage from those tribu-
tary sewers which later must be connect
ed with the Stanford street sewer or
trunk line. The sum to cover this extra
cost of pipe more equitably would fall
nnon the tributaries which are to connect
with this trunk line, later on. This is
the custom, so ii is said. in cities and
very recently In Deering the aldermen
laid over parts of assessments on two
sewers for the same reason.
