Show OBJECTS TO PLAN OF UTILITIFS COM. Citizen of Southern Part of Town Objects Ob-jects to AlleKfd Pan to Force Water to High l.rv.-U. Cedar City, Utah, Feb. 17, 1919. Editor Record. In looking over the, proceedings of the meeting held May 20, 1918, of the Public Utility Com-mission Com-mission of Utah, in regard to the best solution of the furnishing of culinary water to the southern part of Cedar City, it states that an independent main be put in for the people of the southern part. Now, as there is a movement on foot for the bonding of the city to make some improvements in the sys-1 tern, whereby the money would come j out of the people of the southtem part j as well as the others, they feel that the best nnd only way is to install a Main as high on the south as they can get it to furnish water to them; but from information obtained this plan is not the one likely to be adopted, therefore there may not be the support sup-port given in the election to bond the town, as it is a public affair and pub-I pub-I lie money to be spent in it that the public should have a say as to the way it should be installed, for the best interests in-terests of all concerned. And we should not hesitate to spend a few more dollars and have it put in right. We would request that a main be put In running from the reservoir west as high as can be had to a point on 6th Enst St., and there the main for the southern part be continued on west, while the main for the other part be brought north till it intercepts inter-cepts the other main where it now runs by Samuel Mulliner's home. I am sure it will be useless to try nnd float the bonds and get the support sup-port it should have unless such a course be taken. This is not Germany, that the public pub-lic have no say in such matters, or do we have to have just what is dished out to us because it pleases others to do so. This way of forcing water up to get it to a point where it will furnish the highest houses water we have had enough of it ever since the system sys-tem has been put in and with that experience we do not wish it repeated. Enough said, as this will convey to some how we feel in the matter. Respectfully, A CITIZEN. |
