Attest: GILBERT S. RAYMOND, Clerk of the Board of Water Commis- sioners of the City of Norwich. n by Mayor. r stated that the ex- ecutive committee had considered the report, and had Corporation Counsel Fanning frame some resolutions re garding the plan. The mayor explai ed that in January, 1902,the city meet- ing voted down the Stony brook plan, but notwithstanding that the council voted to go there and spend $300,000. Then an injunction was issued to pre- vent the expenditure of the money. There was a long hearing. after which Judge Wheeler changed the injunction somewhat. It enjoins the mayor, council, water board and city tréas- urer from carrying out the Stony brook project if it cost over $300,000, and Judge Wheeler made a finding that it would cost over $300,000, That in- junction is in our way now. It has been thought by the execu- tive committee and corporation coun- sel that if the city meeting will re scind the vote and authorize the ex- penditure of an amount over $300,000 they would not be in contempt or in iolation of the injunction, and would put the water board in & way to fur- nish the ci Resolutions Presented. The resolutions were read as fol- solved, That the court of common of ‘the city of Norwich hereby approv hoard of water commissioners on Feb. 6th, 1911, ado; an additional permanent eupply water on the Stony brook watershed, so-cajled, and the entire action of said board of water commissioners in adopt- ing the same and in doing any and all acts required to carry said resolution into effect is hereby approved; and said board is hereby advised to take steps immediately to increase the permanent water supply of said city under the plan aforesaid by the full d2velopment of said Stony brook watershed. Resolved, That the foregoing resolu- tion to approve the action of the board of water commissioners of this date recommending the development of the Stony brook watershed for a perma- nent water suoply lie upon the table until the city of Norwich shall author- ize an appropriation of the monev re- quired for such development and there- by, and throuzh any other neceseary and proper action, render the passage of said resolution by the court of com- mon council in all respects lezal. Resolved, That the mayor be, and he is hereby requested to call a special city meeting without delay to deter- mine whether said city will authorize ppropriation of such sum of money as will be neaded to carry out the plan of eecuring a receipts from May 16, 1910, to January uts from May 16, 1910, to January 1911, follows: on hand May 16.

Councilmen Gilbert and Worthing- ton asked an explanation when a mo- tion to pass the last two resolutions was made, and Mayor Thayer stated that it was thought they couldn’t vote the first resolution lawfully until they had rescinded the vote of 1902. That being done, the council could then ap- prove of the board’s action, He ex- plained that the imjunction is not re- moved, but it is not thought they will run counter to it if the city will vote a sum in excess of $300,000 for the project, the amount stated by the en- gineers being $304,000. Councilman Lang Gave Opinion. Councilman Lang said the water board voted unanimously in favor of the plan. He further ‘said that he does not think it for the best interest of the city to adopt it, however. He still thimks the Jordan brook can be developed for less money. Since the city meeting he said it had been learn- ed that that project can be developed for $125,000, thus savigg $60,000 to $75,000, by the using of wood instead of iron pipe. He felt as though he ouzht to make the statement, and while he doasn’t think it the best plan he will do all he can to get it through, as we want water. He thought he was in_a better position than many to judge, being a member’ of the water board, but it was for the people to de- cide. Mayor Thayer sald that he still thought the right thing for the city to do is to go Lo Pease brook, but rather than to try to suit the views of a few against the many, although not out of the woods on the water question, he would rather try to do something and fail than to try to do nothing and suc- ceed. He said he would favor it, how- ever. for the sake of getting water, al- though the city thus favors appropri- ating about as much as to go to Pease breok. Council is Unanimous. Councilman Lang asked for a rising vote on the resolutions, so {hat it could go on record. T1e council unanimous- 1y favored tha last two resolutions. _Councilman Lang said he was glad t6 have a unanimous vote of the council, on the matter, and the mayor expressed the same view. P. J. Barry and others asked for an electric light at the corner of Hobart avenue and Reynolds street extension. It was referred to the executive com- mittee.
