The first business, therefore, was the matter of the new storage reser. voir. or. Thomas F. Clune immediate- If nsubmitted the following resolu- o 1 “Resolved, That the mayor appoint a committee of three to fully investi- gate the whole subject of our water supply, its present condition and fu- ture needs, and to report to a future meeting, and that said committee be empowered to consult competent su- thcrity relative to matters involved." Attorney Devi Warner put in an amendment to the foregoing, and of- fered the following: of‘Voted, that the water commission- ers of this city he, and hereby are authorised and directed in increase the water supply of the city by con- structing an additional storage reser- voir below Brown’s Mill on the Silver Mine river, of a storage capacity of not less than 200,000,000 gallons, at a cost of not more than 870,000. Voted, that said water commission- ers be and hereby are authorized and directed to construct a pipe line from the upper end of the present mains at the Grupe reservoir to the propos- ed reservoir below Brown's Mill, at a cost not exceeding $30,000. Voted, that this city take the neces- sary steps to obtain from the next legislature of this state, authority to issue bonds of this city to such an amount as shall be deemed necessary to pay the construction of said storage reservoir and pipe line, and that the construction of said reservoir and pipe line shall not be commenced until funds from the sale of such bonds shall be received to pay for same, or if said bonds shall not be authorized and issued as aforesaid, until funds shall be legally appropriated and a tax laid to cover such appropriatioli. There was a very divided opinion as to the advisability or choice of these motions, Mr. Warner's' plan to vote. the work done, or Mr. Cluue‘s plan to have an investigation. Dr. Clune made a lengthy speech on the subject_ which was roceivcd with great interest. A good wholesome wa- ter supply was especially essential to any city, and was not doubted by any- one. llc said that in view of the de- pressed husiness times at present, and as this subject involved many thou- sands of dollars. It behooved the peo- ple in move slowly and deliberately. in the past he said many things had been done without proper investiga- tion, and the result was that It was like throwing money away. lie was informed that some time alto, that it was said a board could he put. on the top of the reservoir, and thus increase the water supply enough In last through the summer months. Now the water commissioners will not allow this to be done. He spoke further about the propos- ed new pipe line. He said a new six- teen inch line had just. been laid, which, it was said, would supply the needs of the. city. and now the new reservoir was wanted. Money has been squandered, the people have come here In the past and appropriated money for things that they knew nothing about. wok, said he, at Fitch's Hill, where the sewer has just been laid. A mistake was made there which cost the city nearly $5,000. Everybody admits II, and he was of the opinion that it was time a pause was made, and the people be sure what they were doing before they spent money. He said that if the com nlittce was appointed as he proposed, they could report. and everybody have a chance to see how matters were. As a closing shot he said that the water of the town for many years was not fit for use during the summer meatballs was applauded long and loud by the people. Mr. Warner then spoke on the mat- ter. lie said in part: ‘We have been compelled in the past to get water from South Norwalk during the droughts of the summer months, and It is a question as to whether We will be able to do so in the'fnture. ‘1 do not agree with the last speak- er, that the sixteen inch water main was misrepresented to carry water enough for all. times in the future it It was so said anybody should have known better. " He went on to state that it was cer- tain that the town had outgrown its present water supply. and they will not store enough to last in cases of a droug ht. He said he did not object to having a committee, but it was suggested to have the Grupe‘s reservoir built high- er and Mr. Warner stated that a com- mittee had been appointed before and they reported that it would be impos- sible to do this. They had gone through every detail In the case, and it was found unsafe to do It. Herbert R. Smith said that Mr. War. ner seemed to forget that they had - the Lewisboro reservoir which they could build higher and thus save a supply for the summer He said he did not know why something had not been done during the past year to save the water which runs over this dam every day. He was of the opinion that the committee was a good thing. Councilman Dllwcrth was next on his feet, and wished to make a state- ment in justice to the sewer commit- tee. He emphatically Stated that while there had been a little mistake made in the Fitch street sewer, no such amount 'as $6,000 had been con- named. The reservoir matter was quickly taken up again, and Engineer Charles N. Wood requested that the report be- fore mentioned as submitted by a com- mittee be read by John J. Walsh The report was made out in 1902 by the committee appointed to look up a suit. able location for a storage reservoir. The. report was rather lengthy, and ‘told of the visits of the committee to the Curtiak‘itch reservoir and gave not recommended. on every year. Specter“ reservoir was the next mom tlonod. and a lengthy report as to why this was not recommended was read. Now the Ruscoe of Barns reservoir was the only one that the committee could recommend anywhere in the wa- ter sheds. This, they stated, could easily be made to hold 200000.000 gallons of water and the land could he purchased for the actual cost. It also stated that with this capacity it more should be needed in time to come, the dam could be raised five feet, and thus increase the capacity at least 60,000 gallons. The consump- tion of water by the city is greater than the supply at present, and the committeemen advised that the 200.- 000.000 gallon storage reservoir be con- structed at once. The proposed coat of the dam neces- tor sary would be 860,363.33. After this report was finished, an- other of the water commissioner‘s, which was made out at that time was read, In which they stated that it was not possible to deliver the water through the twelve inch main, which Was laid at that time. This report was made in 1808, and they advised more storage a sixteen inch main. and they said an adequate supply of water could be had for fifty years to come. Engineer Charles N. Wood then ex- plained matters, and gave an estimate of the cost of a dam similar to the one recently constructed by the city of South Norwalk. . He gave a good description of it, and estimated that it. would cost $07,802. it was stated that labor costs more at the present time than in 1002, and ma- terial was also higher. lie stated that the water would be thirty feet in depth, and 800 feet in width. City Clark J. Beldcn llurlbutt stated the report just read said it was neces- sary to construct the pipe line. Mr. Wood then said that it was not abso— lutcly a necessity at the present time, but. in time it would be. Mr. ilurlbutt asked, “Don you think that you can ask the people, during these times, to construct a pipe litre which is not necessary, at that cost. with the city already in debt for 8680.- 000 and are not sure of selling the bonds for this work?’ This speech brought applause from all present. Ferdinand Smith next asked why the Grape reservoir could not be ruls. ed. and thus increase the capacity, and Mr, Wood stated that it was us- safe to build any higher, and that it was not made to be built higher. He said that it would flood the farming land on the west and east sides if illis was done. Mr. Smith asked If a concrete wall could not be erected to prevent, this. and Mr. Wood answered, “Yes, it could, but it would take 200 feet on the east side, would have to be four- teen or fifteen feet above the ground, and would cost as lunch as new dam." Captain Scllcck put up an argument saying that two and a half feet could be built on the ion of the Grupc‘s reservoir, and increase the capacity. Mr. Wood said that if it was done the whole dam would have to be taken down and rc-bullt, as the base was not strong enough at present to stand the increased pressure which this would causc. The question of how much water the reservoirs would hold at present. was asked, and they were told 120,000,000 gallons. More of the oil report which was not read, was now brought to light. and it was stated that it was not. ad- visable to build the Grape reservoir any highcr, but Gould lioyt stated that. If the report was made at the present time It would be different. Mr. Warner explainethhls first rcso— lotion, and said when he drew It up he intended to have the meeting throw out that part pertaining to the pipe line or leave it In, as it saw fit. He said “Personally, I do not think that the pipe line will be needed for fifteen of twenty years, and i would not vote for if." Ex- Mayor Glover now stated that he was informed that there were twenty bonds of the last issue of $1,000 each, which had never been sold, and he thought that they could be sold. and the money derived could be used for this work. The meeting new went back to the resolutions, and a vote was taken. which was against the arguments of Mr. Warner, and it was decided that a committee of three should be ap- pointed. Tho question of oiling the streets nowoccupicd the attention of the meet. ing. Dr. ert said that he made a motion at the last, council meeting to 011 West avenue to the Wall street tunnel to the city line. and also all tom the foot of Mill Hill to Westport a enuo. There is twenty-six miles of road in the city. lie stated that the cost was about $231 per mile. He made a motion that the meeting ap- proprlatc enough money to 011 these thoroughfares. Last year, he said, there was about $300 spent for oil. He said the peo- ple had been protesting against the money spent on the highways. Last your $0.000 was appropriated, and in the last ten months 33,000 had been spout on West avenue alone. Dr. Wirt stated that West avenue was the main trunk line where as many automobiles passed in a day as any street In Connecticut, and said that as the road was now in good con- dition, something ought to be done to keep it so. What he wanted was a ermanent road that one would not ave to spend a. great sum of money He was heartily In favor of putting on something that would bind and hold the stones to- gether, and make a good, firm road lib also said, “i am in favor of getting a man to put this on who knows what be Is doing, not saying anything against Mr. Matheis, but I know as much about oiling roads as he does, and i don't know anything." A man was present who sells a prep oration which he says is effective In laying the dust and Is odorless, and gave many other good points. One application lasts from six to eight several reasons why this place wasl Also another just;“experiment" might be all right, but north 'of the road near laylsboraithe way to fix West avenue was to weeks, and is so much cheaper than other preparations that it can be put on this often, and still not cost as much. Captain Selleek said he thought this which they reported not satisfactory. -e ._ I awn—um- pavo it. the some as wall street. He said so as far as the t oillce the first year lay a tax so pay for that. and each year do the some until the fin- ish. This was received with much en- thusiasm. Then a person arose, and said that it would be all right, but he did not see that it would help the dust question. ills-Mayor Glover ‘arose, and said that if the so-called “experiment only cost about i300, and an extra 81,000 had been given to the highway de- partment at the last council meeting, why did they not go ahead and do the work, instead of calling on the city meeting. Dr. Wirt answered him that they could have gone ahead without asking anything of the city meeting, but. wanted to let the people have a chance to say something on the mat- Horbcrt It Smith then asked, “What is the use of the city spending money on West avenue every year, making a building lot of it; they put on a lot of “stuff" in the spring, and scrape it off in the ML" He said the street was in as good shape now as it had been many times before but if something is not done to keep it in shape it will soon be as bad as ever. He said, "if you dont do something, the dust question will soon be settled, because the whole avenue will be blown away, and leave a. hole in the ground." 8.1! Holmes said if it was fair to sprinkle the streets mentioned, it was fair to sprinkle uppcr Main street and East. avenue, which was as bad as West avenue. The "experiment." was to cost $3.60 per barrel, and it would take 35 bur‘ rels to the mile, therefore it was cs- tlmutcd that the cost would be $215 per mile. A motion was rustle that the matter be laid on the table. There was divided opinion, and the voters bad to stand until they were counted. and it was voted that it be laid on the table. licnry Mnihcls then started for the platform, and said he was the target. and invited them to "firu away.” Some- body said there was a motion before the house, and Henry therefore said, “All right, l'lj set down.” Some one then made a motion that the meeting adjourn, and every body nude 0. rush for the door.
