REPORT OF THE Water Commissioners


For Year Ending March 1, 1911.


At a special town meeting held Oct. 18, 1909, the following Water Commissioners were chosen :


CHARLES J. BATCHELLER, for three years. WILLIE R. WALLIS. for two years.


HERBERT N. LOUGEE, for one year.


The commissioners organized with Willie R. Wallis, chair- man and Chas. J. Batcheller, clerk.


In May. 1910, Eugene R. Correll, was engaged as super- intendent of the works, and house connecting was at once com- menced.


After the most careful investigation, it was decided that the only fair to all and economical method of selling water is by metered service, and while the cost of meters ( amounting at the present time to over $1,000. ) was not considered in the original estimate of costs, the commissioners feel in adopting meters they have started the only right way.


The following circular was issued and mailed to all interested persons :


The Water Commissioners of the Town of Douglas, after carefully comparing rates of over twenty towns, have adopted the following as the rates to water takers in this town :


A minimum annual charge of $9.00 for service not to exceed 25,000 gallons.


26


A charge of $1.00 per year for use of Water Meter.


30c. per 1,000 gallons for any part of the second 25,000 gallons


25c. " 1,000


66 third 25,000 66


20c. " 1,000 66 66 66 fourth 25,000 66


15c. " 1,000 66


66 .6 fifth 25,000 . 6


Payment to be made quarterly.


Of the twenty towns referred to, few have as low rates as the above, and many have much higher.


The town furnish the pipe, dig the trench and lay the pipe to the taker's property line at town's expense,


From the taker's line to a proper place inside the cellar to attach the meter, the charge to the taker will be 8c. per foot for 1" cement lined pipe, with cost price charged for any elbows, bends or couplings it is necessary to use, and in addition 19c per foot for the digging and pipe laying, but this 19c price will hold good only so long as the present contractor remains in town.


All charges for house connections to be paid for in full before water is turned on.


Applicants for water service will please fill out the enclosed blank, and hand or mail the same to either of the commissioners, or to the Supt. of the Pumping Station, Eugene R. Correll.


Connections with the system were made as long as weather conditions would permit, and at the present time there are one hundred and twenty-five water takers, which is considered a very large number for a village of this size to have in so short a time.


The drought of the past season has been the most severe of any in the remembrance of the oldest resident, yet we have had an apparently inexhaustible supply of the purest water.

Collections were made on January 1, for water service to that date and in the future collections will be made quarterly.


On each quarter, excepting the last quarter, one-fourth of the minimum annual charge will be collected, and on the last quarter a settlement will be made according to the reading of the meter.


We feel a conservative estimate of a year's income, based on the present number of takers to be as follows:

The Library has passed a most prosperous year. Several of the patrons have been generous in their donations of magazines.


The estate of George Jepherson, of Providence, R. I., donated recently $100.00 to be used mainly for the purchase of reference books, and coming at a time when the schools were needing more books of that nature in the school work, the gift was doubly appreciated.


Mr. Jepherson was an old resident of Douglas, and a strong personal friend of Mr. James M. Fairfield.
