The hear- ing was asked for by the selectmen of Stonington ‘and was called at 1.30 p. m. Major V. L. Peterson of the U. S. efa gineering corps was present to hear what opinions of Stonington (Pawcatuck) peo- ple on the question. At the Westarly Hearing about two weeks ago it was brought‘out that the town of Westerly needed such a building, which would ac- commodate the business people who have to vacate the bullding here now owned by the bank and there was'no suitable place in the center of the town for them to locate. The Stonington. -selsctm: asked for a hearing on the question inas- much as the Pawcatuck river is hajf in Connecticut -and -half in Rhode - Island. Now if Mr. FisMér's building permit was granted and the propgsed building, some of the caissons would rest on the morth side of the Pawcatuck river in Connec- ticut and that was why it was asked to have this public hearing on the question. H. A. Stable, A. G. Martin and Rep. Boulter spoke regarding anchor ice and ficods: that eccurred about thirty years ago here, stating that the Connecticut .| énd of the bridge was narrower wman on the Rhode Island side, and it more calssons or- piers were placed in the river it would interfere possibly wra the xe in the winter and if they allowed ene.to bulld en the. north side of the bridge same wanted to know If a hearing wenld be held before granting a permit to ‘build to each ene should any 5o ap- ply. Major Peters stated that if the town so desired a hearing would be held betore a permit to anyone to bufld along the river. Tt was also brought out by Civil Engineer MacKen- zie ‘of Westerly, that by closing in the ares that thers would be a greater ve- leeity of ‘water here. The C. W. Campbell grain people were interested, though on the Rhode Island side, as it was brought out that in case there. was ever a draw bridge placed across the river they might -get their by water. :A. N. Nash asked it there was any back eddy under the Potter building, and Civil Engineer McKenzle feplied there was not. Mr. Fisher stated he wenld allow several feet for straight- ening the sidewalk and evening up the « {line, if he bufld. Major\Peterson sald he wanted to know what.the people had to ¥y in the macter and wanted an officlal statement.. Several others spoke regard- ing present conditions of the river; of the drain and of the refuse and brush piaced in the river which, it wag stated by some, could be removed, but had not been thus far, and that the widemng of the bridge would probably come event- ually. The meeting’ was adjourned at 3 oclock. THe selectmen of the town of. Stoningten will now confer with the ‘Westerly town council jointly and present’ the situstion and then place the matter Defors the government civil engineers to consider and awalt ‘their decision.
