Regional
Roundup
By Clv Twltchdl
, regional Editor
We checked out a couple of
Talent area rumors with Tal
ent Mayor Wayne Reichstein
the other day, and as might
have been expected, there
wasn't much sustance to
either of them. The first ru
mor was that Talent's new
water system would take
water out of Wagner creek
only during the Irrigation sea
son and still rely on well
water during the winter. Not
so, said Reichstein. Talent's
water will come from Wagner
creek the year round when
the development project is
completed. The wells will be
ior supplementary water only,
Th other rumor we had
heard was that piped water
would be made available to
homes in the Talent rural
area within a year, perhaps
even before the South Talent
Sanitary district gets a sewer
system in. But Mayor Reich
stein said he doubted it, un
less the residents of the Talent
rural area get busy and form
a water district in a hurry.
The city council of Talent
IKIES have in mind, however,
that such a rural district, if
and when formed, could ob
tain water from the city s
water system. That factor was
one of the considerations eyed
by the council when it decided
to propose a bond issue to fi
nance improvement of the
city's water facilities, we un
derstand.
South Talent
Sanitary Board
Discusses Budget
Tidbits
While driving through
Eagle Point last week, we no
ticed "For Sale" signs on at
jeast two properties along
Little Butte creek. Could be
that some families want to get
out before there's another
flood. Speaking of Little
Butte creek, we wonder when
it la that a creek becomes a
river. That certainly is a
wicked looking creek. Even
last week it was almost over
flowing lis banks in some
spots. Perhaps a campaign to
change It to a river would be
In order.
