[official] couhcil (jhamber, Anm Arbor, July C, 1891. Regular meeting. Cal led to order by Pres. Cooley. Roll cali. Present - Aldermen Mann, Wines, Herz, Martin, Allmendinger, Fillmore, O'Hearn, Taylor, Rehburg, Kitson and Pres. Cooley. Absent - Aldermen Ferguson and Hall. Aid. Mann moved that the minutes of June 15th and 20th be considered read and approved. Carried. The following Communications from the Mayor were then read : To the Honorable, the Common Council : Having been appointed by your honorable body a member of a committee to visit Lansing in the interest of siwerage legislation. I beg leave to report that the legal obstacles in the way of new legislation at this late day seemed to me so insuperable that I did not feel justified in aceepting your highly esteemed and flattering commission and devoting thereto the time which other duties demanded. I said however to the committee in writing "Be sure that you get a perfectly legitímate bilí, title etc., else do not try to get any. We cannot afford to risk our tax levy, our good faith as a city or our intelligence as officials by attempting or taking any other course. It is to be regretted that the time for introducing new bilis (50 days) has loug before expired, and I am very much afraid that there is no bill before either house pertaining to the City whose title and purpose cover the contemplated legislation." The fiftydays referred to, commenced to run with the opening of the session (Jan. 1891), and will undoubtedly be reported to you that the committee who visited Tiansing for that purpose could not find that any bill pertaining to sewerage in the City of Ann Arbor was introduced in either house during the aforesaid constitutional period. Respectfully, William G. Doty, Mayor. Received and placed on file. To the Honorable, the Common Councll. Gentlemen : I have received, and have this day placed on file with the City Clerk, the resignation of Dr. William F. Breakey as a member of the Board of Health. I herebv appoint subject to your approval Dr. John Kapp as a meinber of said board for the unexpired term of Dr. Breakey's appointment. William G. Doty, Mayor. Aun Arbor, July 6th, 1891. Received and placed on file. The Committee on Sewerage made the following report : To the Honorable, the City Coumcll of the City of Ann Arbor: The joint committee appointed to invcstat the subject of sewerage, beg beave to report. ist. That at the present session of the leiirL;uu ■■. il wül be impoBStble to secure the passage ol the enatuling act to authoi-ize the issuinjï of bonds, as the aesslOD is about to close, and no net can lx legally passed uniese it was Introduced during the iirst fifty days oï the session. 2nd. If the city Is to have a system of sewerage wlthin a reasonaUle time, there are two coorses to pursue: to levy ii tax this year sufficient to cover the expense of a portion of the niain sewer and bulld iliat portion. Theii proceed in the same manner the follo-vfing- years, uut il the whole teoompïeted. To this plan there is serums objeetion, as the levy Would be Hable to be defeated in any of the subsequent years, and In that case the money whlch had been expendel would bê lost. The second course would be to levy the entlre un necessary to construct the main eewer, this year. Such a levy. ii i-t beüLeved, would not exceed $20,000. tmd with an aseeament rol of over $6,( 00 000, would mflke a tax of about :'.'! centa on aach $100 oí va.uatinn, a sum whlch in any otlier city would not be coneldered dlfticult to ralse, as it woukl moke the entire tax for the year (in'y abOUt one dollar and t-eventy cents per hundred dollars of valu atlon. A. comparlson oí tliis amount with the taxes of nther eities of the Stat would show favorably for Ann Arbor. The cost of the lateral sewrvs slioull be paid by the property recelvlog the benefit, aml would naturally be extended throiiKli severa! years. It is estimated that the laterals will cost about 88 crntii por foot, and. belng aesessed on the property abutting on emch side. would niake a payment to ie made lor an ordlnary lot of four rode. ol about $11, whlch would certainly le cleanllneas at acheap rate. Your comniittee. after careful eons4Mration, would respectfully reoomnienwl the common COuncU that a meetins; of the quailfled electors be held at an eavly day tn determine the qupstion of levylng a tax for the year 1H01 of $20,000, for the purpose of construetinc: a main sewer accordlng to the plan lx submitted by Prof. Cas.h E.
