AGAIN CONSIDER CITY
BUILDING WATER RESERVOIR
CONTINUED from page -

Members Of the Board of Water
Commissioners at their meeting last
night all declared they were heartily
in favor of the idea but were of the
belief that it was now up to the
Board of Aldermen to act in the mat
ter and decide whether they would
nance it. The construction of the
reservoir would take two years, 1t
was said, during the first half Of
which the grading would have to be
done and hen allow the ground to
settle for a while before the concrete
construction could be started.
The matter of financing the reser-
voir proposition will most likely be
brought before the aldermen at their
e meeting, which will be on
March 1, by Mayor Dorsey. Owing
to the time it will take to construct
the reservoir those favoring che pro-
position are of the belief that no
time should be lost.
Mayor Dorsey stated this morning
hat figures given him by Superin-
tendent S. j. Mason showed that
about so per cent. of the consumers
are now on meter rates and they are
running about one-third over the av-
erage consumption trying to get
clear water. Interest charges. he
said, for the cost of constructing the
reservoir with the present rates II
effect, would only mean IA cents per
1000 gallons.
