Councilman Lyle Kellstrom re quested that Kyle obtain informa tion citing the approximate num ber of grass fires that break out annually in the city. "I want some more informa tion on this before deciding wheth er we should spend from $5,000 to $7,000 for a truck," Kellstrom stat ed. Kyle reported that the Klam ath Forest Protective Association has indicated it would construct the 200-gallon water tank for the truck if the purchase is ap proved. The council doubted that the unit could be set up before the end of the fire season but authorized Kyle to obtain prices on the equip ment with tlie provision that it would not be obligated to accept any of the bids. The council was more rcceplive to the purchase of equipment to clean tlie city's sewers which are becoming clogged with "muck, grass and silt," Kyle stated. He estimated that approximate ly one-third of the city's 97 miles of 14-inch diameter sewer lines contain from four to five inches of sediment. "The muck reduces the efficien cy of the sewer system, which will continue to fill up until some thing is done ahout it," Kyle re marked.- He estimated that the equipment would cost from $4,800 to $5,000. It was suggested that sewer cleaning apparatus could be rent ed to the South Suburban Sani tary District whenever needed by that district.
