 The proposed survey now being considered for adoption as the lands to be included in the proposed plan has been submitted to this board, and even should the right to so con- trol the lands be granted you, we would still protest against it's adop- ton as including large amount of lands not a part of any town or city.
 As to what boundaries any such rule should apply, and as to how large or small units of land should or should not be construed to INDI- CATE ITS use FOR TOWNSHIP PURPOSES certainly is not out lined in the law itself and has pos sibly never been determined by iu- dicial construction of the law, hence we believe such limits should be con- fined to the corporate limits of cities and towns, unless by a majority vote of the owners of outlying subdivis- ions, choose to avail themselves of the disadvantages of the proposed plan.
 We understand that the payment of the additional charge for water under this proposed plan releases the land owner from his proportion of the cost of the project.
 IL has been argued by some that by the extension to twenty years of the payment of the cost of the pro- ject without interest, that the project will largely pay for itself from the power developed and other resources; granting that theory is erroneous and not based on facts and figures, it would still seem that by this con- tinuOus annual charge of $2 pec acre foot no due allowance has been made for the payments already made by such owner toward the cost of the project, and no assurance but what he will continue to pay the exorbi . ta1it rate long after the project is paid for, or the other users are en- toying a further extension of the time of payment.
 In summing up, we must say that We consider the proposed plan
 First-Not authorized by law
 Secondly-Detrimental to the best interests of the Valley

 If the law does authorize the ac- ton taken and all the facts bear out the same then in that case, the land owners are entitled to a req sonable time, say one year. to pro- vide therefor and the boundaries of such lands limited to actual town sites or such additional land as shall unquestionably be a part of some town or city as plated addition thereto used for town purposes.
