C. E. Ericson, superin- tendent, reported that 89 connec- tions had been completed and 86 meters installed. There are six more connections which will be made as soon as weather permits. It was also reported that a total of 27,330 feet of pipe had been lald and 40 | hydrants connected. When all con- nections have been made, the com- missioners expect that there will be 174 customers. The commissioners recommended that the clerk, Arthur O. Ames, and Treasurer L. M. Bancroft be paid a yearly salary of $100. This action was unanimously approved. Be- sides these items, the budget for the ensuing year includes expenses for interest on bonds, $5175; sinking fund, $2,000; water purchased, $2,- 500; and miscellaneous items amounting to $377.79, making a to- tal of $10,252.19. From this is de- ducted receipts from water rents, etc., amounting to $4,501.44, leaving the total amount to be raised by taxation, $5,751.35. The grand list of the district is approximately $1,- 428,000. The commissioners recommended a tax rate of 4 mills with the idea that a deserve fund would be set p over the amount of disbursements to cover the principal payment of | $4,000 on the bond issue which will be due in 1932.
