That on a number of occasions this spring and summer sum-mer parts of the City have been without culinary water because the main aqueduct to the reservoir could not carry sufficient water to supply all the users in the city? That the system was installed when the population was only 10,000, and the main lines (except the aqueduct in the canyon) have not since been enlarged? That Provo City has reached its limit of growth under un-der the present system and can supply no more homes without causing a shortage from time to time to other users? V That we use 8 million gallons of water a day and that our reservoir holds only 5 million gallons? That we should have enough reservoir capacity to hold at least IS million gallons? The proposed bond issue of one million dollars dol-lars will pay the cost of the following im provements: A New 42-inch Aqueduct from Provo Canypn to the New Reservoir. A New 10 Million Gallon Reservoir. New Aqueduct to Springs in South Fork of Provo Canyon. Pipeline to Take Upper Falls into Canyon Aqueduct. The Covering of Large Ditches in the City. , Improvements to Irrigation System. The proposed program will not interfere with or reduce the use of irrigation water on farms and gardens. On the contrary, con-trary, improvements to be made will result in a more efficient effic-ient system with an increased and more dependable supply of irrigation water to all farms and gardens. Th proposed program is not intended to increase the amount of your water bills. No additional revenue will be required to pay the principal and interest on the new bond issue, the present revenues of the water department are ' sufficient to pay the cost of operation and maintenance, interest charges, and redeem ithe bonds as they mature.
