tion has for many years owned, op-
Grated and maintained Its own sys-|
TEN OF water works taking water

pumping plant and distributing the

proper conduits, and

have become worn out and obsolete
and wholly inadequate TO the needs
of the city and its inhabitants, and
Whereas the City Council deems
1t imperatively necessary that new
system of water works for fire and
domestic purposes adequate to the
needs of the city and its inhabitants
should be constructed at once and

system of water works as Will have
its source in mountain stream and
as will bring to the city and distrib-
ute therein an adequate supply of
sure mountain water suitable to the
city's needs. and

the issuance of bonds of the city to
that amount to provHe funds there
for.
