ENGINEER TO SURVEY
CITY WATER SYSTEM
REPORT OF SPECIAL INVESTI-
CATION MADE TO COUNCIL.
BOND ISSUE FAVORED.

Following d report from the water
and light committee relative to the
dangerous condition of concrete water
mains now remaining in the Dawson
system and the urgent need Of extern
sions, made at a special meeting
of the city council on Tuesday night,
the chairman of the water and light
committee and the superintendent of
the water and light plant were en-
powered to secure a competent engi-
neer to make a survey of the water
mains and report to the council,
In the report submitted to the coun-
Gil it is estimated that 24350 feet of
new iron pipe varying in size from
to inches, will be required to re-
place the old mains and to make the
necessary extensions. The cost was
estimated at $38,000 1t was also rec
commended that another well be sunk
at the light plant to insure an ade
quate supply OF water in case of fire.
After considerable discussion of the
recommendations and OF ways and
means of putting them into effect the
council went on record as believing
that the only feasible way to make
the improvements is to issue bonds. 1t
is considered probable that an cleo
ton for a bond issue will be held if
the report of the engineer to be en-
ployed indicates that the need OF i'm
provement is as grave as the local
committee thinks it to be.
The members of the council believe
the situation to be serious, and for this
reason are anxious that it be brought
before the citizens of Dawson.
The question of installing new
water mains came up in 1919, but on
ly a part of the system was changed
to iron pipes. 1t was found that a
complete system OF mains could not
be installed and the paving, which
was then under consideration, laid at
that time The condition of the con-
crete mains was then described as bad
and with the passage of time these
pipes have grown correspondingly
worse.
