Fire committee presented the following re
port:
Belding, Mich, May 3, 1901.
MR.. CHAIRMAN:-The committee to whom
was referred the petition in regard TO extern
| tion OF water main from end OF main at present
south on Bridge st TO state road, would say
| that we have carefully looked over the ground
and also the location OF the other MIGRANTS in
the locality around the grounds asking for ex-
tention, and we find that the property laying
on state road and vicinity is entirely without
fire protection, therefore we would recommend
that the water main on Bridge St be extended
from its present ending south 80 rods making
the end OF main TO north side OF state road on
Bridge st. with hydrant placed at OF near the
end OF same main. the size OF pipe 10 be inch
wood pipe placed at the proper depth TO pre-
vent freezing. Signed by committee.
