White Linen REAGH GOMPROMISE - ON'SEWER PROBLEM Finance Board Allows $70,000 for Belvidere Job As a sort of compromise measure, the board of finance and taxation, at an adjourned meeting last night, rec. ommended the issuance of sewer honds to the amount of $100,000, lop- ping $50,000 from the amount orig- inally sought by the board of public works. 0,000 For Belvidere The public works commission was instructed to use no more than $70,- 000 of this amount to carry the Bel- videre trunk line sewer as far as East street, and then discontinue the work until such time as the sections to be benefited come within the second tax- ing district. 'The remaining $30,000 will be used for other sewer works. President F. S. Chamberlain was opposed at the opening of the meet- ing to the use of any more funds for this project. Chairman Thomas W. Crowe and City Engineer Joseph D. ‘Williams of the board of public works insisted that the city would stand a heavy:loss if the work was discontin- ued in its present stages, and they urged that favorable action be taken. Chamberlain Speaks Opening the discussion, President Chamberlain said: “Tuesday noon the hoard of public works appeared before this commis- sion and asked for $150,000 in sewer bonds to sewer Belvidere. I told the mayor and the engineer at the time it was first broyght up that I wouldn't stand for it, and I told the meeting Tuesday that I couldn't. “They are now engaged in the work of laying a trunk line sewer in Bel- videre at a great expense to the city. Of course we would like to have Bel- videre have a sewer. ‘But I don't think that the public is generally in- formed as to the two taxing districts. The first district takes in the whole city while the second is but a small area within the city, closely corres- ponding to the old city limits and ending at Allyn street The city charter, adopted in 1905 enumerated the charges that could be made NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, petitions are in for four more and several additional works are shortly to be asked for. The chairman brought up the ques- tion of sewer assessments, believing that the $1.76 charge is too low, 3 Commissioner Thomas F. Flannery asked how the price of $1.75 was |arrived at. | Landers' and Hart's Idea. Judge J. H. Kirkham sald it was a compromise brought in by George M, Landers, Sr,, and the late W. H. Hart, At that time it pald the costs of sewering, labor and materials being |considerably lower than at present. He felt that the charter revision commit- tee would increase the amount only after the hardest kind of a fight. The corporation counsel felt it in- advisable to stop the work now. Such action he pointed out, would cause the city to lose the use of what is now done for a year. The pipe s purchased and on the ground. It is being pushed and rolled about on rights of way and the city is being threatened with suits. He fYelt the city would lose less by taking the chance of losing the additional taxes for one year than by expending $20,- 000 to close up the work now. He also pointed out that the present time is a good one for bond issues. Bond Issue Voted. President Chamberlain then offered his compromise. He assured that he didn't want to enact the role of ‘“the dog in the manger” and that he would stand for a $100,000 bond issue, $70,- 000 of which would carry the trunk line sewer to East street, and $30,- 000 for regular sewer work. | Commissioner J. C. Loomis then| moved that the issus of $100,000 in| sewer bonds be approved. The board was unanimous in its approval of the issue. {CLASS OF 1872 HAS 50TH ANNIVERSARY Gronp Which Graduates From Local Normal School Half Century Ago, Still Celebrates.

Second District's Side “In the meantime, property owners in the second district have paid for all sewers—they hought rights clear down to the river — they purchased and are maintaining sewer beds—they have issued bonds and paid off some of them, and have established a sink- ing fund to pay more. All this time, the outlying districts, including Belvi- dere, have paid not a cent. “To lay the present sewers and Jat- erals would cost half a million dol- lars, I am told. Under the present laws, we would receive but $1.75 a foot from the property owners bene- fited while it might cost the city as | much as $5. Those of us in the sec- ond district would pay the rest. It isn't right! We must have a show down! Let's stop the work until these sections are a part of the sec-| ond taxing district; then we’'ll be glad to put in a sewer. Even then, these districts will be getting the best of it.
