Response to Request Regarding Desired
Sewer Connections,

Mr.. H. S. Matthews. a property owner
in the vicinity of Goth and streets north
west, recently wrote the Commissioners re-
questing that favorable action be taken or
the application of John w. Beckett for
permission to connect premises Nos. 2914
and 2916 o street northwest with the sewer
in the center of street AS reported in
The Star several days ago. the request OF
MI. Beckett was denied by D. E. McComb
superintendent of sewers, and an appeal
was taken to the Commissioners.
Commissioner Biddle, recommends that
Mr.. Matthews be informed that the Com
missioners do not consider it advisable to
grant his request for the reasons set forth
in the following indor sement of Mr.. Nc
Comb:
Since the present government Of the Dis
trict has been in existence the connection
with sewers four feet in diameter and over
has been prohibited except under very ex-
ceptional circumstances. The rule was
adopted when Major Hoxie was chief en-
gineer Of the District. Before that time
service connections were permitted with
main sewers and it is probable that the
existing connections with the street sew
er were made prior to the adoption Of the
rule referred to-
THE writer is mistaken when he states
that since this sewer has been built it has
been the custom of the officials of the Dis
trlct 10 grant. without question, permission
to parties seeking the same. to connect
their premises herewith Service sewers
have been constructed on both sides of o
street between 9th and Goth streets under
the assessment system, for the sole reason
that the brick sewer in the street was not
available for service connections.
The proposed sewer, which will be of
ordinary depth, will be deep enough to
serve the house Of the writer, the base
ment of which is less than five feet below
the southeast curb corner of Both and o
streets. The construction Of the sewer will
not be hardship, because the properties
assessed have not heretofore been assessed
for sewer construction. When the necessity
for the same shall arise the construction
OF sewer service along the north side of
0 street between 29th and 3Oth streets will
be recommended"
