NO information on classifieds will be given out until after paper is mailed. ’ ■ ' 1 1 ANSWER: Yes. As nearly as possible an equitable plan will be worked out so home owners can connect with as little as possible breaking of streets. The length of home connections will be made as shoit as possible. QUESTION: What will be the cost of the project? ANSWER :The city engineer has placed the cost at $85,000. Actual cost will be determined when a bid for the work is accepted by the city. QUESTION: What method or methods of payment have been worked out to provide this money? ANSWER: If voters accept the prepo sition July 10, the city will sell gen eral obligation bonds for the above amount to cover the cost of con struction. QUESTION: How will these bonds be paid off? ANSWER: The engineering plan pro vides for the raising of funds from a sewer use charge of $1.50 per month to be paid by each home owner or renter occupying a home. This charge would be made on the monthly water statement sent out by the city and would apply to every home in the city. The engi neering plan also calls for $50 per home connection fee. This fee would be paid only by homes which will be served by the proposed new sewer lines, not by those homes which are now connected to and being served by existing lines. The number of lots on which the home is located makes no difference. The charge is $50 per home con nected. QUESTION: Will these charges be sufficient to pay off the bond issue and if so, how soon? ANSWER: With this sewer-use reven ue from the water department the engineers have worked out a schedule that will provide regular charge. QUESTION: When will the disposal plant have to be built? ANSWER: Not before 1958. The au thority has granted approval to use the existing septic tank until then with the installation of chlorina tion equipment at the tank. This new equipment to be installed now would be placed in use as part of the new plant when it is built. The city would not be required to again expend money for chlorination equipment. This overall plan to construct the new sewers and the disposal plant is based on a re quirement established by the state authority “that sanitary wastes from the city should receive com plete treatment prior to discharge into the Nehalem river.” (Quoted from the engineer’s report). QUESTON: Will there be a sewer use charge if the voters turn down the proposal July 10? ANSWER: It is quite probable that residents now using the presently installed sewer system would be asked to pay a monthly use charge. Some means of raising funds for the future installation of the dis posal plant will be necessary. 1 hose people not now served by sewers would object strenuously to the payment for something they could not use. QUESTION: How »oon will the project be started if the vote is favorable July 10? ANSWER: Final engineering plans would be prepared by early Aug ust, bids would be called for im mediately and the project started this fall. QUESTION: Is it compulsory that a home be connected to the sewer main? ANSWER: Yes. Ordinance No. 99. section 20, requires that homes within 200 feet of a sewer main or in a sewer district must be con nected.
