whereas it has heretofore on the 14th day
of June. 1921. been by the Commission of

Shiawassee River southwesterly to South
Ga Il. tsooh Ia oil m
following the general course of Comstock
Creek, according to surveys. profiles. plans,
specifications and estimates on that day on
file in the Office of the City Clerk, but owing
to the prevalence of high prices for labor
and materials and the inability of the Com
mission to raise, either by tax or loan, suf-
sewer. the same has never been laid or con-
structed prior to the present year; and
Whereas estimates have been made
of the cost of construction of the said sewer
based on current prices of labor and mater
ials, and the Commission has made provision
in the annual appropriation bill for the fiscal
of sufficient funds to pay the City's portion
of said sewer hereinafter described
