Show Mesquite To Start Laying Of Water Mains Soon MESQUITE, Nev. The laying of the city water mains will commence com-mence in this community in the near future with the completion of the grading of the streets. This is part of a program that was voted through on May 1, when the citizens voted through a $20,000 water bond issue for culinary culi-nary purposes. The grading of the streets will be part of a state1 road program, the first of its kind in the state, whereby the state will build sidewalks side-walks on each side of the highway for a distance of one and one-half one-half miles. Shrubs and trees will be planted with work scheduled to start by June 1, report city officials. With the laying of the water mains in the city, Mesquite will have its water piped directly from the springs, a distance of over 15 miles. This work has been done through the cooperation of the church and federal aid. City officials also state that they are anticipating a cut in their power rates on June 1 making mak-ing it possible for citizens of this section to use a greater amount of power at a lower cost. |
