Nilsen Over the gears, the Falcon Heights Village Council has urged the City of St. Paul to extend v:ater to Falcon Heights but you are all aware of the problems the City of St. Paul has had with it's own water supply; and it vrasn't until April of 1959 that Leonard Thompson, manager of the St. Paul ltiater Department, The St. Paul Council and the Board of ','ater Commissioners granted n~rmission to extend water to Roselawn East and Vest of Snelling in the Village of Falcon Heights. Since that time, we have installed the watermain on Larnenteur ti',est almost to Cleveland. j''~e have been riven permission to extend water Hart way uA Tatum, Fairview and Fry Streets. Ut~e were recently alerted to the drop in the water level, and the number of wells which have gone dry, and the great number expected to dry up in the ",2etropolitan area this year and in the near future. Vr'e planned a Hearing on June 29th, but the situation became more critical in our own Village so we set the Hearing for tonight. ti"de recently had a petition from almost 100 of the people on Pascal from Ruggles to Roselawn requesting that watermain be run along their street. One of the problems vre have to lace is the problem of water. Statistics point out that 6It/ of the population in this P~etropolitan Area is served by ",ginneavolis or St. Paul. Zt is becoming increasingly difficult. 1'~e felt it was our duty to bring this matter to your a++.,ention and. that is why we called the meeting for tonight. Utecht Normally, we do not proceed on the basis we are proceeding on tonight. Vde started out with a petition for one street, but when we found out how much well trouble there was in the Village, we started the`proceedings to cover the area as listed in the notices published, Hosted and. mailed to about 100 homes. 4Ye can
