SILVER SPRING.


OF health, and plans FOR the proJect
sanctioned by the Montgomery county
board of commissioners. work on the
improvement. which il is estimat ted
will cost approximately $4,000. will
he begun soon. In addition to the
sewerage system. plans are ready for
the installation of water system
which will supply the town and its
immediate environs. and which will
cost several thousand dollars more.
The county commissioners will issue
bonds for the two projects. and the
costs will be assessed against the
property owners of the town.
Harry Stevens. an engineer of Wash
ington, who two years ago was con-
suited by citizens of the town father
ing the Improvement now ordered. and
who has just been delegated by the
county commissioners to complete plans
for the new projects. stated today that
these would be submitted within three
or four weeks. AT the time he was
first consulted Mr.. Stevens drew plans
for q sewerage system. but as it is
proposed that the area be enlarged to
incorporate about 100 acres lying on
the outskirts of the town he will be
forced to make additions. Besides
laying mains. the question of sewer
age disposal plant must be met, and
1t is proposed that an agreement be
entered into with the town of Takoma
u
shall be carried to that point and dis
posed of. No difficulties are expected
to he met with in carrying out TINS
plan.
Mr. Stevens also has completed plans
for the installation of a water system,
which, as in the case of the sewerage
system, will cover every street in the
town. Although the suggestion has
been made by some citizens that ar
ransements be made with Takoma
Park to furnish water for the town. 1t
is considered more likely the county
commissioners will approve the PROV
ect of drilling artesian wells and erect
ing huge standpipes and tanks. the
mains to connect with these. Water
plugs will he placed at the lntersec-
lions of all streets. affording increased
protection from fire

commissioners. in addition to the cost
of the sewerage and water systems

nv him as payment for the preliminary
surveys made by Mr.. Stevens two years
ago when the projects were nrs'
