PROPOSCD WATER SUPPLY OEVCLOPMENT
PRESENT TRANSMISSION LINE --------
PROPOSED TRANSMISSION LINE - -
PROPOSED MEDFORD WATER SUPPLY DEVELOPMENT
Shown above is the route intended for the proposed new water
transmission line from Big Butte springs to Medford to increase
and safeguard the water supply system. On a special city ballot at
tiie primary election Friday. May 19, Medford residents will be
asked to vote on a $2,800,000 bond issue for the construction of
the aqueduct. The board of water commissioners anticipate that no
increase in existing water rates and no tax levies will be necessary
to amortize the cost of the development over the 30-year payment
period. A dam and reservoir at Willow creek is included in the
project to insure the Eagle Point irrigation district its prorata
share of the stream flow from supplementary water. The district
has a larger priority right from the springs than Medford. After
more than two years of study commissioners have determined that
Mcdford's increasing population can best be served by a second
water line. Commissioners have stressed that present water supply
is inadequate and that last summer water use restrictions were
necessitated. They sid that more repairs will become necessary
for the present pipeline and service interruptions will become
more frequent, although the line will last past its previously de
termined life expectancy. Danger of depending upon one line and
the hazard in case of an aqueduct break have been stressed.
