point where the opposing parties
seemed to hang rather subbornly We
took into consideration the value
to the city 5of avoiding the expenses
OF litigation in case we resorted to
condemnation proceedings. That is,
It was worth something to the city
to keep out of coutr on account Of
the necessarily heavy legal and ex
pert engineering fees. Closely al
lied with this consideration was the
collateral one, that every month Of
delay in securing the plant meant
loss to the people in the payment
Of higher water. and light rates than
the city would charge. We were
advised that If. so disposed the COM
-pany could keep the litigation going
for about two years. In our judg-
ment this would have meant a loss
to the people of the city in water and
light rates of at least 100000.
1t came out during one of the
meetings we had that certain rights
to use the streets of the city for
water and gas mains we're claimed
under an old easement, held orig
inally by o. D. Kinney, in all the
streets of the original townsite. This
is separate and apart from the fran
chise of the present company. II
the city purchases the present plant
release and cancellation Of this
easement is to be given the city.
While no special sum is to be paid
the company on this account, we are
advised that it's cancellation is of
substantial value to the city. Our
final meeting was held In Duluth last
Saturday with the stockholders of
the company.
In all Of our work we have had
the assistance of Mr.. Bert Fesler,
special counsel for the city, and this
report, together with it's recon-
mendations, has his approval.
The foregoing details have been
given 50 that your honorable body
and the public generally may know
just how your committee went about
it's business.
The result of our work is that we
have assurances that II the council
will make an offer to buy for the
sum of $492,000, plus the actual
cost OF permanent improvements
made to the plant since the date of
the submission Of the Burns & Nc
Donnell report, such offer will be
accepted by the company. 1t is
agreed that no extraordinary i'm
plant without first advising with the
city as to it's wishes in the matter
and making an honest effort to COM
ply Herewith. While we feel the
company is getting fair price for
it's plant, we think We have made q
good bargain for the city. The
price agreed on is $87,591.38 less
than the Burns & Mcdonnell valua-
ton, $63,500 less than the Patter-
son valuation and $4,000 less than
lowest price heretofore made the
city by the company.
The arrangement contemplates a
sale and transfer of the property
and business as of date April l..
1913, as provided in the franchise
of the company.
In the opinion of your committee
and it's advisers the city can II it
acquires the property at the price
stated reduce rates 20 per cent at
once and still have ample income to
take care in a conservative business
way Of all operating expenses, inter-
est, depreciation and sinking fund
accounts and have surplus besides.
We recommend the adoption by
the council of the resolution accom-
panying this report.
