Woodman of Baxter and Wocdman-- Engineers was present at the last meeting of the president and trustees on Monday, Aug. 27, to explain in detail the next step in investigating the feasibility of a sanitary sewage disposal plant for our community* Before . our village officials can put the project in your lap-- they, and you must know what such a project will cost. Since the funds for investigating the cost are coming from the federal government, certain procedures must be followed. Mr. Woodman explained in detail about the documents which must be processed. He and his company were empowered by the board to proceed with the detailed investigation of the ACTUAL cost. They will commence at the earliest possible date. As soon as the facts are made available, they will be published. The next steo would be to summon the bending companies who will instruct the board in the matter of financing. This is still a bit in the future, but "time flies". This is something for each and every villager to contemplate. As you know, the need for such a system is acute! The clearing of the village right-of-way has commenced. The matter of re-sealing Eastwood Drive was proposed. It is 4-5 years since this arterial road was completed and in order to protect it from the ravages of time and the elements, this protective covering is necessary. After investigation, it was found that North Orchard Drive (Gate 3) required similar treatment. By this time, the re-sealing of both of these roads should be completed.
