Onnosition to the construction of the projected Foster road sewer and drain, which the city engineering ae nartment estimated will cost approxi matelv $403,000. was manifested last night by several hundred residents of the Mount Scott and Lenta districts who met at the Lents Grange hall, 5803'i Ninety-second street South east. 'Aroused by the statements of speakers that the sewer would, if built at this time, impose only an added burden of taxation and in' real ity was a needless expense, residents of the district adopted a resolution, calling upon the acting chairman, L. L. Levings, one of the chief op ponents of the project, to appoint a committee of ten, which will in turn appoint five persons each, to act as a sub-committee, the entire number to oppose all measures calculated to place the sewer again before the city council in a favorable light. Only a few persons, and many of these from the Arleta district, led by H. E. Hall, were present, and their declarations to the effect that the laying of the sewer would prove to be the first of several projects in tended to beautify Foster road, the Lents and Mount Scott district and tRus increase property valuations, met with disapproval. H. E. Hall, as chief spokesman for - V ' "V those who desired the drainage proj- J' V-" ect recilcti th6 benefits to be derived "p V-"J from such construction, saying that i property valuations would be in- . -I ", ; i', J creased, the district would be beautf- ' ' J - -? fied and the measure, if successful, would fit into plans- w being per fected by city development agencies, to make East Portland a place of scenic beauty for the tourist. The cost was said by Mr. Hall to tie not prohibitive and the assess ment of $38. SO a lot throughout the district was claased as extremely Just. After relinquishing the chair, Mr. Levings told of his objections to the measure, declaring cost exorbitant and that results to be achieved do not, at the present time, warrant such an expenditure.
