VILLERS PROTEST
INCONVENIENCE
ThOnlastOn Avenue Resi-
dents Complain Against
Project Workers
WATERVILLE

A number Of complaints have
been recently voiced by Thomas
| ton avenue residents because of in
conveniences caused by the con-
Struction of the new sanitary and
| storm water sewers in that street
Although 1t is realized that projects
of such magnitude must necessar-
| lily cause a great deal of inconveni-
ence and local residents have been
willing to cheerfully accept such a
situation 1t is felt that there have
been numerous instances Of lack of
proper consideration on the part OF
those in charge.
It has sometimes been necessary
to temporarily shut off the water
supply from some houses. The
householders realize that this Is
often unavoidable but state they
feel that reasonable notice of &C.
ton should first be given SO that a
reserve of water might be secured.
In another case the entrance to a
without first giving the occupants
the opportunity of removing their
cars. In at least one case this has
meant the tying up of the mans
car for more than q week. If he
could have been notified he would
have been able to remove the auto
mobile before the passway was
blocked.
Many other complaints Of q sim
liar nature have been made, most
OF which could have been avoided
If a little more thoughtfulness and
foresight as well as common cour-
tesy had been used by those in
charge of the projects. The resi-
dents are firm in their declaration
that they have not and will not
raise any objections to inconveni-
ences which cannot possibly be
avoided since they are necessary to
a project of such size and import
ance.
