RISIIIIIIIR III Bill IIIIAIIIII
(Continued from First Page.)
M. J. Riordan asked that the specifio
cations be read, as all present proba-
bly would not care to look at. the
plans. 1 This caused Clerk Keena to sit
up and take notice, as there were near-
ly ninety pages of the specifications.
Clerk Kecna took it good naturodly,
however, and proceeded.
Engineer Wood explained that the
cement to be used would be the
American Portlnut cement. specifying
five brands, which were used by the
government and other contractors.
Judge Lockwood asked if the bid to
clean 11p the land in the vicinity of the.
proposed dam would be awarded to
the contractor who will construct the
dam, and Mr. Wood replied not neces-
sarily, but that It was specific other-
wise.
The resolution was then passed.
Judge Lockwood stated that us he
understood it..the meeting hcld 111111
evening was an adjourned special city
meeting and asked that the vote cov-
ering this matter be read whir h was
done. He also asked if any appropria-
tion of money had been made at the
last meeting, and said that as he re-
called it. no appropriation was 111111111
at that time to construct this dam.
He made a motion that the sum of
370.000. or as much thereof as is need
ed not to exceed the 870.000. be appro-
priated from the treasury of the City
of Norwalk. for the purpose of con-
structing the dam.
Hon. John S. Seymour presented the
following resolution in writing:
Resolved. That $70,000. or so much
thereof as may be necessary. be and
the same is hereby appropriated for
the proceeds of bonds for the con-
struction of a. reservoir and its nppur
tenances, according to the plans and
specifications submitted by the water
commissioners. provided that, said
bond issue be provided by the legisla-
ture.
This was voted on by ballot. result-
ing in 115 affirmative and three for
the negative, which carried the reso
lution practically unanimously.
James T. Hubbcll said that accord—
ing to the city charter. no money quid
be appropriated at a special meeting.
unless a special tax was laid at the
same time. to meet it.
Judge Lockwood stated that some
money must be appropriated in order
to meet this bill. and said further that
of course Mr. iiubbell was better 11c-
quainted with the city charter than he
was. In closing his remarks he offer-
ed a resolution for the expenditure1 of
870.000. in order that no loop hole
might be left open. which would make
the vote invalid.
Hon. John S. Seymour presented n11
amendment to Judge Lockwood‘s reso-
lution. for this act to be approved by
the legislature, and stated that a bill
was before the legislature of tie pres-
ent time. which covered htis matter.
The bill in question was passed by
the legislature at Hartford yester-
day. '
in regard to the boundary line, C. It
Glover questioned the validity of tak-
ing this matter 11p. saying that this
meeting was an adjourned special
meeting. The mayor claimed that it
was not an ndjomned special meet-
ing. but he was opposed by E. M.’
Lockwood
Hon. John S. Seymour held that the
meeting was both an adjourned meet-
ing and a special meeting.
Mr. Huhbell claimed that according
to the call this was a. special meeting.
and did not necessarily prohibit the
taking 11p of this matter.
Judge Lockwood held that unless
the meeting came under the head of
an adjourned special meeting the rose
