Mr. heith, being duly sworn in by the Secretary of the District as an expert
witness, stated his qualifications as an engineer employed by Lowry and
oc ates the designers of the Master Plan for sewer lines for the Jistrict.
Keith explained the master plan for sewers and statedthat in his experience
sewers always benefit the district in which they more installed and that he
was of the opinion that sewers would benefit this entire District.
A question was asked from the floor concerning the cost of laterals and
house connections. hr. Anith stated that the cost of laterals should
average approximately Q.00 per front foot and the house connections a_ prox-
im' wly 2.50 to 2-A w r s foot.
& formal protest to t,hs inclusion of property in Block 36 wasmade by Mr.
John uilmore on the grounds that there was a possibility of a portion of
that area being annexed to the City of Anahiaim in the future.
It was urged by a few that the sewer s`:-stem at the start be limited to the
more populated areas and let other areas come in as they desired.
Mr. ieith pointed out that this would not only be a lass economical method
but would require thse who came in later to pick up all costs they would
have paid by being included in the initial system.
Mr, ?gyred Johnson asked the Board to restudy the plan with.special attention
to area "C".
