A large map, showing the proposed routes of Trunk Lines C-1 and C-2, was placed
before the audience.
consideration is the size of the so-called Itconnecting link" between France Avenue
and Normandale Road; that, for purposes of economy, this main has been planned
large enough to serve the future trunk for service to the Southwest area--that if
the "connecting linkll is not accepted by the Southwest area, now, it will be
necessary to construct an entirely E line between Fr ce nd N r ndal at SUC future date as the Southwest area is to be servedf$&d?x% c s$ &%?e e f-? p?e&%r, 8 p?an e tir eo !?y by C-2

this district as compared with the combined C-1-C-2 districts.
the audience that the Estimated Cost of the llconnecting link11 is estimated to be
$713,000, of which the C-2 area wmld pay 30$, for a cost of 92$ per platted front
property. He informed the audience that, if the entire C-2 line is constructed
now, the cost, including C-2's portion of the "connecting link11, i?Tould be appro:rj=-
mately S965,OOO, for an estimated $3,42 per platted front foot, up to a m&&mum
150 feet per lot, or 6684.00 per acre. Nessrs. R.R, Overholt, 6944 Valley View
Road, LE. Jensen, 6939 Valley View Rd., and some others, protested that the
planning is tlpremturelt; that the area is not ready for development, and will not
be ready for developnent for many years.
one owner in Prospt Hills, protested that the ultimate cost for sewer "into the
homesI1 rill. be prohibitive for the already-platted hilly areas; that lots are
large and that several cesspools can be dug forthe cost of sewer service.
owning unplatted property complained that the proposed assessment amounts to
llconfiscation of propertrI: for them. One man advocated that the C-2 area be
allowed to pay the difference in the cost of the pipe onlz-vs'nich would not
increase the cost to C-1 and still give C-2 the opportunity of connecting at a
future date. Iir. Hyde stated he feels this proposition would have to be taken
up with the otmers in the C-1 area before it could be settled because it would
amount to a contribution by the C-1 area to the C-2 area,
that the C-2 area might go in with Bloomington, on a connection there, and Trustee

call for participation in cost of a sewage disposal plakit--which will be many
times as expensive as the present plan. Nr. Horace T. I.iorris, owner of unplatted
property, advocated that the C-2 area pay, now, the difference in the cost of the
pip., only; that the remaining portion of cost be deferred until such time 2s the
C-2 area request connection to the "connecting link".

that some blocks in the area, namely IZildred Avenue between W.63rd and W.65th Sts.,
and Wilryan Avenue, between W.63rd and W,6kth Sts. and between W,65th and IT.66th
Sts. have petitioned for water service; that it is more economical, from both
construction and maintenance standpoints, to constrmct a large project.
Nelson, 6300 Josephine Avenue, supported a petition signed by owners of properby
on Josephine Avenue betveen 63rd and 64th Sts., protestjng assessment for reason
that block is to be taken for crosstown highway cloverleaf, Dr. Charles F. Hansen,
5109 71,66th St., and Dr. Erling K. Hansen, 6526 Tingdale Avenue, protested the
proposed impmvement on the grounds that they have wells, have large tracts of
land, and VU derive no benefit.

protested on grounds that he had just completed pump installation after infor-
mation given him some two months ago at the Village Hall that he could expect
no water service in the near future.
Block on Mildred, asked that the improvement be expedited, and Mr. Bogen, owner
of five lots on Kildred, also spoke in favor of the line for this street.
Rrs. Lee 1:. Bemis, 644.4 l?ilryan Ave. , reminded the Council that the petition
for Wilryan Avenue was old; that several homes have been built in the area
since; that all new homes already have wells and do not need the service.
One owner, living on Rolf Avenue between 64th and 65th, doubted that the
people on this street would go along with the project, and Nr. Zikan
explained that a dead-end line of more than one block causes stagnant
water conditions, hydrants must be flushed more often, and pressure is poor.
Trxstee Bank offered, as a compromise settlement, that the proposed Trunk
Main be run on 66th St. to Wilryan Ave.; then a main in Wilryan to 64th St.,
then across 64th St. to Josephine, then South on Josephine to 66th St., to
make one loop; that main be run on Mildred Avenue from Valley View Road to
W.65th St., then East one black, to Rolf Avenue; then Morth on Rolf Avenue
to 64th St., to tie into present main.
