N early all the people who have become in ter
ested in the Springfield industrial site have in
ouired also about the sewer connections Those
investigating the site now have plants in mind
th a t absolutely must have sewer connections,
T h e city needs a new tru n k line sewer th a t s o il'd
Serve the S tew art addition and the industrial
tra c t as well as one or tw o o th er tru n k sew-
W e m ight as well begin to th in k about this condi
tion and prepare to remedy it in the near future.
Present sewers are taxed to capacity and over
flow in the streets when there is a heavy rain.
It is not wise to continue hooking on to
adwers w ith new districts. Soon sewers » d i be
bad all over town lf^this continues.
