Cottage Hill Folks
Demand City Water

Lambertville- A committee of Cot
tage Hill residents composed of F.
P. Masterson, John Mcclure, Win
field Schmuts and William Master
son, appeared before the Tuesday
meeting of the City Commissioners
to press their claim for city water
in that section. Some time ago a
petition was presented by residents
of Cottage Hill asking that the To-
cal water company be requested to
extend its lines to that territory.
As it is included in the city limits,
and as property owners there have
to pay city taxes, they argued that
it was only just that they should
be supplied with this city conven-
fence.
The Commissioners made the re-
quest of the water company, but the
water officials pointed out that ow-
ing to the elevation of Cottage Hill
it is impossible for their pressure
to supply the demand.
Plans were then discussed for
erecting a dam below the spring on
the Foran place and thus create a
reservoir The cost was estimated
at $4,000. With sixty families on
Cottage Hill agreeing to buy ser
vice at the regular city rates, it
was figured that the original cost
would soon be absorbed.
However, the Commissioners are
evidently entertaining another plan,
for at the Tuesday meeting the
city clerk was instructed to notify
the State Public Utilities Commits
sion of the situation, and request
that investigators be sent here to
work out a solution to the prob
lem as early as possible.
