TUESDAY. JANUARY 24, 1958 IIERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PACE THREE Lindley Residents Block Moving Of KF City Dump Protests of residents of the Lindley Heights and Riverview ad ditions successfully blocked the moving of the Klamath Falls city dump from Its present location on the Oregon Tech road to a new site back of the Lindley Heights hill. After hearing numerous pro tests from several of the 60 resi dents of the area in attendance at Monday night's city council meet ing, Mayor Paul Landry said the dump definitely would not be re located on the Lindley Heights-Bivervlew-Stewart Lennox site. Dan-ell Potter, 2425 Autumn Ave nue, presented the council with a petition signed by about 177 resi dents of the area registering their opposition to the plan. Other residents of the area raised questions about the smote from the dump blowing over the hill and into the residential area around Riverside School. One par ent said the proposed dump site was used extensively by children i of the area as a playground. A housewife stated that the dump would bring large numbers of rats Into the area. After Mayor Landry's ruling that the dump would not be moved, Don McDowell, one of the operators 3rof Klamath Disposal Inc., said the garbage company didn't want to damage any residential area with the dump. He suggested cleaning up the area around the present site. . The new site was proposed when officials of Oregon Technical In stitute and residents below the present dump ground protested the condition of the dump. Council man Walter Fleet said that any suggestions for a new site would be appreciated by the council. It was pointed out by McDowell that the unsightly dump and wrecking yard on the entrance road to the present dump is not on city property but is on the county road leading to OTI. The Klamath County Court has Juris diction over this area, it was . pointed out. "This . whole dumping ground problem Is a city-county problem." stated Councilman Lawrence Slat er. In further business the council was given a written report by Fred B. Robinson, chairman of the Fence the Canal Committee, on his committee's plan for fenc ing the A Canal. Copies of this report will be sent to all Oregon's congressional delegation and Secretary of the Interior Douglas McKay, Robinson said. The report was to be studied by the councilmen prior to their next meeting. Chief of Police Orville Hamilton asked the revoking and re-issuing annually of all special parking permits. He also asked clarifica tion of what the permits allow the motorists in the way of spe cial parking privileges. The city council will study the policies of other cities in Oregon and render a decision in the near future. The city council also ordered City Building Inspector Verne Schortgen to start charging build ing permit fees on the construction of public buildings. Schortgen said the state law allows this practice Sisk Readies Water Bill WASHINGTON (UP) Rep. B. F. Sisk (D-Calif) has Introduced a bill which would give farmers in irrigation districts permanent rights to water they receive from the Central Valley Project under lone term contracts. Sisk said the proposal is similar to a bill last year by Rep. Clair Engle (D-Calif), but he has added provlsons "to make It cyrstal clear that water laws of ihe states shall govern distribution ol water by federal reclamation projects." The congressman said the bill, if enacted, would cure several major objections which have been directed against the water service or "utility-type" contracts used for distribution of CVP water. In San Joaquin Valley, Sisk pointed out, the proposed legisla tion would affect contracts with 27 districts taking CVP water.
