Public Hearing Set
On Wafer System for
Fairfax March y

A public meeting to discuss the
proposed integrated water system
for Fairfax County win be held
by the Board Of County Super
yisors at 8 pm. March 30 in the
Fairfax Courthouse.
The supervisors decided yes
terday, after receiving prelimi-
nary plans for the water system.
to hold a meeting to acquaint the
public with details of the pro-
posal and find out how people
feel about it. After that, the
supervisors must decide whether
to proceed with detailed PLAN
ming and prepare for q revenue
bond sale to finance it.
The preliminary plans pre-
scented to the supervisors yester-
day by M. H. Klegerman Of Alex
ander Potter g Associates, New
York engineering firm, provide
for indignation Of the existing
scattered water systems in the
county into one county operated
system, supplied directly from
Dalecarlia Reservoir in the Dis
trict through a new pipeline
across the Potomac River.
About $50 Million
. Estimated cost of the inte-
grated system-including acqui-
sition of the existing separate
systems--is $34.5 million or 1898
million. The higher figure in
cludes acquisition Of Fails
Church facilities in the county
and the lower figure excludes
Falls Church.
According to the engineering
report, the county should be able
to finance the entire undertake
ing with water rates averaging
$50 for a typical family consum-
ing 1000 gallons a month. This
is about the. average bill of all
the separate water companies
now operating in the county, but
some Arms have rates that are
much higher and others charge
much lower rates.
Could Cut Rates Later
II know the people in my area
want a public water system"
said Mrs. Anne wilkins. super
visor from Mason district, "but
$50 a year seems awfully high"
Mr.. Klegerman pointed out
that the $50 figure was based on
maximum possible construction
costs.
I'VE wanted to be on the con-
sentative side in deciding the
financial practicability Of this
PLAN" said Mr.. Klegerman. He
added that rates could be re-
duced sharply within a few years
after the project gets under way,
probably as low as $33 or $38 a
year for an average customer.

Delegation Scored
In Dispute Over
Planning Control

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. IT, The
Montgomery County General AS
sembly delegation got caught in
a bitter croSsfire here early today
in its efforts to provide for more
local control over the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission.
The delegation ended the ses-
sion at ITO am. after q three
hour public hearing punctuated
by sharp attacks on its proposals.
Some 200 persons-yirtually all
from Observation-Disclosures the
hearing in the House chamber.
At the two extremes were the
planning commission pleading
for a continuation Of the re
gional planning concept" and
those who want to abolish the
commission and replace it with
a county commission under the
thumb Of the county council.
:. Bond Smith, general coun-
sci foa the Planning Commission,
urged bipartisan makeup of the
Commission and said the present
proposal would pitch the Com
mission right into the middle OF
partisan politics" He also scored
the bin as ripper legislation.
William Slayton, chairman Of
the Citizens Committee to Unity
Montgomery County Planning.
urged that all appointments be
made BY the council so that
responsibility would not be
divided.
Bitterest attacks on the legis-
lation which some observers feel
in effect will split the Commits
sion came from Mr.. Slayton. the
County League of Women Vot-
ers and Frederick A. Gutheim,
Of the Upper Montgomery County
Planning Commission.
Mrs. Rose Lewis Of the League
Of Women Voters, said her group
favored local planning commits
sion under direction of the
County Council.
The league spokesman and Mr..
Slayton rebuked the delegation
for not allowing more time be-
tween the publication of the bills
and the public hearing.
Blair Lee III. chairman of the
delegation, apologized for the
