MAY VOTE ON TRUNK
SEWER SYSTEM AGAIN
Monday Evening-Bills Aggregat-
ing $4,000 for October
Allowed,

1t is more than probable that the
matter of a trunk sewer system along
the lines proposed and voted upon last
spring at special election at which
the project was defeated by very few
votes. will be submitted to the voters
of the city at the coming election. The
council discussed the matter at length
last Monday night, and referred it TO
the city attorney who was instructed
to report upon it at the next meeting,
November 81. The proposed ordinance
will provide for bond issue of $4,000
for the purpose of building the sewer.
+. McCulloh. city engineer, submitted
the following report, which is self-ex-
planatory:
North Yakima, Wash, Nov. I, 1904.
To the Honorable Mayor and Council of
the City of North Yakima, Wash:
Gentlemen-I beg leave to submit the
following report upon the sewerage and
drainage of the city:
A study of the movement of the sub
surface waters during the past sum
mer leads to the conclusion that a
main drain about Yakima avenue would
afford direct relief to the district
where the need of drainage is most ap-
parent and a large measure of relief to
all that district to the south where,
while drainage should be provided for,
the need is not quite so apparent TO the
casual observer and not so insistent.
The best location for this main is along
the alley north of Yakima avenue from
Seattle avenue to Naches avenue, thence
along Yakima avenue to the outlet.
1t has been suggested that an outfall
along Yakima avenue extended and an
other at Beacn street, utilizing the ex-
listing outfall as far as possible for the
district south of Yakima avenue would
be cheaper than the single outfall here
tofore proposed-together with the
trunk on Eighth street.
For a system of strictly trunk sew
ers and drains this proves to be the
case.
1 submit herewith a map of the city
upon which is indicated by red lines and
black figures the location and dimen.
sions of all proposed trunk sewers
Laterals may be extended to serve the
whole city.
Drainage is provided for as hereto
fore proposed by subdrains laid in the
same trenches with the sewers.

1t is proposed to connect with and
utilize the existing outfall sewer, from
the bluff east of Beach street and
Tenth street where it is deep enough
to afford drainage for the district west
of the Northern Pacific railway, until
such time as it may become overloaded.
This time may be postponed for a
number of years by connecting the sew
ers north of Yakima avenue, from time
to time with the new system. Ulti-
mately a l6-inch wood stave pipe will
be required to replace the present out
fall sewer below our proposed connec
ton.
The system as provided is for trunk
sewers only. and sub-sewers or later
ais. to be built by local assessment.
will be required for direct service to
property.
Provided the city pay the cost of all
sub-drains, assessing the cost of sani
tary sewers only to property benefited,
which would seem to be Just distribu-
ton of cost, the cost of these laterals
will not exceed 5000 per block in any
case, or $3.50 per lot of so feet.
l estimate the cost of the proposed
system at $4,000, exclusive of cost of
right OF way and possible legal ex-
penses. To cover all items bond issue
of $4,000 would probably be required.
Respectfully submitted,
E. MCULLOH,
City Engineer.
