The territory TO be covered by the
proposed new system is practically
that part Of the town within the
boundaries of the Westerly fire dis
trict, and provision has been made in
the plans for the construction of sew
ers in nearly all of the streets within
the propose ddistrict- The distance OF
piping is about IL miles and the esti-
mated cost of that part of the system
is $119,7S2.
The estimated cost of the entire sys-
tenn. as given by the engineer. is $780,
526. To this estimate must be added
the cost of the land and rights of
way which, together with many Incl
dentals that eventually enter into
project of this magnitude, would prob
ably cause the expenditure Of approx
mately 100000.
The cost of operating the proposed
system is estimated at $4.6oo a year,
which includes electric power for
pumping at the present prevailing rates
superintendent and labor required in
operating the plant, coal and supplies,
and depreciation of machinery. Inter
est and sinking fund charges are not
included in the estimate, as the
amount of these charges will depend
upon the method by which the system
is finally paid for. There is no valid
reason why people living remote from
the sewers. who may be never reached
by them, should be taxed for the same.
The commissioners are of the opinion
that the section proposed to be severed
should pay for the sewerage system.
