Mr. Christensen read a report from the North Suburban Sanitary
Sewer Committee. This report is on file at the Village Office but
the policy of the Committee report states in part, as follows:
1. We, as a Committee, are solely interested in the passage of
our bill as is written, for immediate and economical relief of our
common problem.
2. The Committee believes the way to expediate the passage of
our bill is on the basis of need, health, timing and freedom of choice
and that the factors of industrial development in our area, or the
idea of getting passage of the bill for bargaining power in the future
with some agency, should be supressed.
3. The plan that we feel is best for this area, and the
metropolitan area as a whole, is a regional treatment plant in the
northwest area, which is similar to plan B -1 of the various solutions
presented in the Metropolitan Sanitary District report, Volume 3.
4. The Committee feels that the control of the river should be
placed wholly in the hands of a state agency.
5. With regard to the question of support of the Metropolitan
Sanitary District expansion, the Committee will consider the subject
when the expansion bill is available for %etudy.
Motion by Hodges to pay bills presented. Seconded by Malvin.
