Appoint Firm For Sewage Survey .Seaforth town council at its monthly meeting on 'Monday evening agreed to a suggestion by Councillor Turnbull that the town hire •an engineering firm rather than. an individual engin- eer to draw lapeplans for the ex- tension and comeletion of the town's sewer system. M. M, Dtllon'and Co. of Lon- don will the appointed engin- eers to the town for this pro- ject. 7. Waaatem'a, an engineer av;ho works with the Dillon Co. has already made a general survey and plan to connect fur- thersewer extensions to the present system. " (VIr. Warbema is to be paid 5300 foe his avork and requested to turn his work over to the Dil- lon firm. Councillor Turnbull .s•aid he felt the town would be wise to employ an engineering firm rather than an individual engin= eer. There was an assurance of continuity of serw,iee by em- ploying a firm. the said the 'town was quite satisfied with the work that Mr. Wartema had drone so far, and would be b+appy to have the Dillon 'firm place him in charge of the town's work. Councillor !Turnbull reviewed the various steps which had' led up to the present appoin'tm'ents. He said lie had had several communications with 'bhe Ont.- orio Water Resources Commis- sion. He said he had concluded it was not fair to ask theni to pass on the maps et ,present in 1the to'wn's hands. This (rad led 'to the town getting Mr. Warte- ma to make a general survey and act as -consulting engineer. Most urgent need for sewer service was the hospital, a pro- posed industrial development and the high school and this' (Project would have priority when work got under way. 'Councillor Turnlbull told the council it could 'hardly be ex- pected any actual sewer work could he done ibis year. But if al( the details were decided this Year, next year's council could go ahead with the first stage of the work. Mayer 'Misfile in an= ewer: to a question said he thought it would take more than Save years to complete all the sewer work in town.
