STUDY ASKED -
BY: COUNCIL
A study of costs for sanitary
sewers to serve houses in the
npurlv annexed municipal area
r,-th , nt Pacific Terrace was
asked of the city engineer last
night by the city council.
City Engineer E. A. Thomas
.vtiinoH Hint he had discussed
the problem of improvements
Uh some of the residents of
thn ni-An ami that it is possible
thev mav be able to finance
sewers for tlie present houses on
a cash basis, rather than through
borrowing. ... .
Thom are relatively few
v,mie there, he said, but the
rii.trirt is large and the council
should cive consideration to
,.,hnt hniild be done in the way
of further sewer extension if it
builds up. He said the city can
initiate an improvement district
for sanitary purposes.
Thomas said it is necessary to
have some definite idea of the
cvtt nf the first sewer hook-ups
in discussing the problem fur
ther with the properly owners,
and the council authorized him
in investigate the cost Question
Frank Lowell, former pack
ing company head here, torn tne
council he would like to build a
packing plant on a Spring street
site, and asked if there are any
ordinances or policies that would
prevent location of such a plant
there.
City Attorney J. H. Carnahan
said that the city zoning ordi
nance apparently prohibits
meat nackine rilant in that area
but that the ordinance could be
amended by the council. The
council decided to have the sani
tary and health questions stud
ied by the health committee be
fore considering the question
further.
In answer to questions from
councilmen, Lowell said he plans
a most modern plant that would
permit U. S. meat inspection
here, and asserted that the plant
he plans will not give off any
offensive odors.
Lowell has returned from ser
vice in the navy, and said that
his plans arc far enough along
that he has preliminary blue
prints ready. He showed the
plans to the councilmen, who
said they do not wish to dis
courage industry but want to be
sure the site is a proper one for
such an operation. Lowell said
it would .be necessary to have
slaughtering operations in con
nection with the packing plant
An ordinance regulating car
nivals and other similar enter
tainments was passed through
first reading.
