To the Mayor and City Council
i
Gentlemen:
In regard to the condition of the water mains on Clallam Street in the vicinity of the old
Willison Hospital building, I find that there is a fire plug which is leaking at the bottom and I -
think after this is fixed it will stop most of the troubles. The block north of that the ground
shows demp but there are no leaks showing on the surface, 1 can not tell to what extent, if any, thi
leakage amounts to without having the pipe uncovered.
'
The overflow line seams to be in good shape also the line running south on Monroe btreet.
Part of the trouble ' think can also be attributed to drainage from the slope above, of which we
i
have no control.
The street should be graded to a level .cross section and the ditch on the east side of
street cleaned out and made a little wider and deeper.,

1 have prepared, plandand.specifications for the 28' x 34' wood frame building covered
with corrugated iron at the City Lake, Screen Chamber. The.Mill people seem to think that this type
vfi
will not give them the necessary fire protection and suggest all metal construction. This would cos
approximately twice what.the above building would cost. Also we would have to advertise and call for
bids. This would bake Enom four to six weeks before actual construction, o ou Id begin.
;
.It has also been suggested by them that they go ahead and construct the building and the
charge the cost of eame back to the City. 'his, I think, cannot be done legally and you should have
° r
the uity Attorney's opinion on this matter before allowing them to go ahead with any proposition of
this kind.
The main line was brokdn again! yesterday by the McCormick Logging crows and repairs wil
be finished sometimetoday. The water is City Lake is down 15 feet and has not been raised since th

of wood frame construction and covered with galvanized iron. l.expeot to:have.four bids on this
building and hope to get them in and start oonstruction about November 4.
I received another letter this morning from the National Paper Products Company saying
r 4
they have decided it would be good insurance to out the small trees around screen chamber out far
enough so that a fire would be almost impossible, so that there will be no objection to the house I
planned and have taken steps to start construction at once.
Would like to know what you would like to have done in regards to this last suggestion.
