Preliminary surveys are beng made
by City Engineer Paddock for Il sewer
district which the board of local inn
provements will estab lish this summer
in the territory west of Fifteenth
street and south of Sixteenth avenue.
This is a territory which has not been
adequately served by sewers hereto
fore. Under the change in the state
law made by the last legislature the
board of LEGAL improvements has the
right to inaugurate public improve
ments such as sewers. water mains
and paving without Il petition from
the property owners and assess the
cost on the abutting property. This
j. what will be done in the creation
of the sewer district. This part of the
city has been in great need of a sys-
tematic drainage plan. but there has
been no way of creating it heretofore
because of the difficulty of gaining
property consent. Now the work will
be put through as soon as surveys
and plans are made.
