for the complete system includ ing the disposal plant his report is submitted the council and ettlaens can then decide how much of the whole system win be taken care of at the outset the cost of such survey and plans is frequently deducted from the engineers fee should he be em ployed to supervise the proposed work 2 the council if it sees at will pass a bylaw for voting on the dis posal plant and trunk sewer 3 those entitled to vote will express their wishes 4 for the protection of the town the plans of the system are submitted to the ontario department of health for examination by its
