According to City Attorney Earl Cook of Highwood, approximately $12,000 has been ‘spent for mateâ€" rials and equipment for the conâ€" struction work so far. Work was halted temporarily during the inâ€" junction proceedings in cireuit court. In denying the injunction Judge Dady held with Mayor Charles Porâ€" tillia and the Highwood city: coun. vil that the ratification of the $165,â€" 000 water ‘revenue bond issue at regular council meetings on Jan; 6 and Jan. 16 removed the legal cloud over the action‘ of the council at speâ€" cial meetings last summer. He also held. that the bond issue was sold to G. W. McNear & Co., a bond house, for less than the maximum permit. ted by law, and that the bond is. sue did not have to be placed for a referendum because the waterâ€" works project was undertaken with a PWA grant of $80,182. â€" .Opponents of the project contend that Highwood water consumers will have to pay more for their water afâ€" ter the plant is completedâ€"than they For many years Highwood has purchased water from . Highland Park at the rate of 15 cents for 10 eubic feet. Highwood in turn sold it through a distribution system to the consumers at the rate of 22% ing. Attorney Paul C. Behanna, counâ€" sel for Herman A. Juhrend, John M. Simpson and George Galloway, leaders of the Highwood Civic Imâ€" provement association opposing dl‘ Highwood waterworks construction, has said that an appeal would ‘be taken from Judge Dady‘s ruling diâ€" rectly to the supreme court because the validity of a city ordinance was questioned. Under the easement obtained from the federal government to use Fort Sheridan <territory to reach Lake Michigan for the waterworks mains, the city must build the plant within two years. The eagement was grantâ€" ed last June 10 by an act of conâ€" Judge Dady Denies Injunction to Stop Waterworks Project It is rumored, however, that work on the project may be halted again. The opponents have ten days in which to appeal to the state supreme court, following Judge Dady‘s rulâ€" Profits of the city in the sale of water were estimated at $4,000 a year, which was applied to meeting expenses of the city government. Engineers, however, reported to Mayor Portillia â€"that a municipal waâ€" ‘Judge Ralph J. Dady, late Satur. day, denied an injunction to stop construction of the Highwood waterâ€" works project, and contractors . set to work Monday‘ to proceed with the $245,000 municipal job. While the appeal is pending, work on the construction of the project will be halted.
