An announcement was made that critical cases on the north side of the railroad will be reviewed and house- holders allowed to connect to the system on an individual basis. These persons are ask- ed to contact the authority. A statement was issued that work will be completed within the next two weeks to have the sewer ditch thru the borough park closed in order that children may play in the area. The sewage line will be extended to the new borough limits, beyond the Little Ch'ques Creek, it was an- nounced in answer to several residents’ questions. The ex- tension is not a new plan but was included in the orig- inal plan of the system, it was pointed out at the Mon- day meeting. Bids for the laying of a road from New Street to the sewage plant will be opened at the May 7 meeting. This road is to be 2800 feet long. Bids also will be opened for furnishing one year’s supplies for the plant.

This responsibility will be best assumed and the work of the author- lity made easier by being prompt in following the rules for connecting and paying your assessment.

If not assumed in the time specified, you leave the Authority no other alternative but to enforce them.
