Places to be Changed.
 Due to the necessary legal steps to be taken and the time required to take such steps. it will be some time yet before the date of the spe- cial election to decide upon the pro- posed Forestvile sewer project can be set, according to Mayor w. Ray mond Crumb at the monthly meet ing of the city council held last eve ming.
 City Corporation Counsel William i x. DeRosier reported on the prog ress which has been made to date in getting things ready for the spe- cial election. and he outlined the procedure to be followed. It was the | opinion Of Mayor Crumb that the date for the special election would not be set until after the general city election in October, so that there will be no confiction of election l campaigns.
 l Attorney DeRosier stated that the ! first thing to be done in regard to | the proposition is to define the limits | to be covered by the proposed sewer district. This will be some job to determine and will probably require a considerable amount of time and effort on the part Of the sewer com mittee.
 When this is done. the next step will be to have registrars make up the lists of the legal voters residing within the limits of such district. The special election. with it's neces- sary red tape. will then follow.
 In the event that the proposition is passed, the next district step will be to formally enlarge the present second taxing district to embrace the proposed sewer district.
 The final step will be to have the assessors make up a grand list for the proposed district so that taxes may be levied and assessment laid.
 In making arrangements for the forthcoming special election. Clty Attorney DeRosier has conferred with the Boston legal firm of Ropes, Gray. Royden and Perkins. This law firm will certify as to the legality of the proposed bond issue, and all de- tails of the affair are being approved by them so that there will be no question as to the Certitication.
