matted the following written report on petition for water main extension, to -wit:
Port Townsend, Washington, April 16, 1935.
To the Honorable Mayor and City Council,
of the City of Port Townsend.
Gentlemen:
Your Committee, nn Water and Drainage, to whom was referred the matter of petit
R. W. Robison and A. R. Getchman for extension of water main to property in the California
Addition, would respectfully report as follows: We find that it would require the install
tion of at least 2000 feet of new, 4-inch pipe to reach the property of the petitioners.
There does not appear to be any prospect of additional consumers in that district in the
near future.; Therefore, the small amount of new business in sight, at the present time,
would not justify the expense of such construction.
