Council Eyes Sewer Problem The many facets of the city's sewerage problems were reviewed at a meeting of the city council, Mayor Paul Landry and members of the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce Civic Affairs Com mittee Wednesday morning in the chamber office. Truman Runyan. member of the chamber group, presided at the meeting. He reviewed the 1953 re port on the city's sewerage sys tem compiled by John Cunning ham and Associates of Portland Mayor Landry pointed out tha: although the system takes care of the city today future building will make expansion of the system and the present treatment plant a must. The city council is expected to pui two possible plans on the May primary ballot. One plan would call for a tax levy to build a new trunk line from the upper end of not springs Addition to a point near me present secondary treat ment plant near Owens Street and Shasta Way. A second plan would call lor the building of this line and a beginning on the build ing of a new treatment plant on the site of the present plant near me Great Northern roilway oriage on tne west side of Klam ath River. The council is now waiting for an additional report from the Cun- ningnam nrm on Iho cost of the plans. This report is expected by February 24. When the report Is received the council will be able to set the tax levy needed. It was pointed out at the meet ing lhat plans to build several hundred houses in the east side of the town are at present stalled because the sewerage system Is not big enough to take care of this expansion.
