COUNCIL WILL PROBABLY ENACT
REGULATIONS GOVERNING
HEALTH MEASURES.
OF PRivY
VAULTS TO be FEATURE
II ordinances Are Passed All Such
Vaults in City Will bs condsmmsd-
New Ordinances Will Conform
With Rules Of State Board Of Health
-Provi.ions 70 Enforce Ordinances.

A new and revised act OF ordinances
governing the sewer system and sani-
tation of the city, which will be the
means of abolishing practically all OF
the privy vaults. is being contemplated
for passage by the city council some
time probably during the winter. City
solicitor F. E. Northup expects to begin
soon to draw up the ordinance, certain
features Of which the council members
feel the urgent need of.
The city solicitor says the new ordi-
nances are badly needed, and Michael
Banzhaf, inspector of sewers and
plumbing. realizes the need of new and
up date ordinances that will meet
present-day conditions The old ordi-
nances are impracticable and inef-
fecent in many ways.
Will Abolish Nuisaness.
One of the important features Of the
ordinances, when they are passed. will
be that all privy vaults must be
cleaned, filled and the buildings. now
being used as such, removed. This
will apply to all premises that are ad-
:acert 10 streets or alleys thru which
city sewers run. A time limit will be
fixed when the vaults must be aban-
doned. and dwellings must be con-
nected with the citys sewer system.
This feature Of the ordinance will
abolish a nuisance and menace to
health in many parts OF the city. The
city has been called on frequently to
abolish such nuisances because Of un-
sanitary conditions that they created.
Conform to State Rules.
Another very important feature OF
the proposed ordinances will be that
they will be made to conform to the
la Tvs on sanitation that were adopted
as rules for the government Of cities by
the state board of health. Nominally
the old ordinances of this city. do that,
but they are not explicit and conform
to the board of health rules only by
inference.
Included also in the new ordinances
will be provisions by which. when a
property owner refused to make his
premises sanitary for any reason. the
city may go ahead and do the work.
and have the costs assessed against the
property as taxes. Having the backing
Of the state board Of health, which has
authority IN questions Of sanitation
even within cities. the ordinances once
passed may be enforced without di1i-
