esult of a survey made by him at"the request of the Mayor with reference to a dike bei:
onstructed near the -City PUMP Station by Mr.Gene Goff, Mr Dees reported that in his op.

poport needs may be met. Th6 m neer bid"proceedure is of course up to the City Council.
of Sewer l In mapping a program'which would give Fayetteville a modern and satisfactory
survey sewer system; the survey reportysets out plans -which would care for normal growth of the
by city over a period through 1981'; At'that time according to estimates of the Christ Firm,
M.ChristFayetteville should have -well over 30,000 population and' -the need for much larger facili-
tlies will be felt.""The plans outlined call fora bond issue either of more than $400,000
Ir of 8002000 to care for the need's of 800 more customers than arer. presently.
Under both-plans,'present and fixture equipment' included in the program'would
meet adequately the needs of a larger population than at present makes dp the City.
Revenue bonds can be issued to'pay for the-con"struution which is outlined,
bonds which would be'paid off by'money-raised by an increase in a sewer tax,
The $800,000 is-sue"would not mean much more tax than the $400,000 issue, beca
der the former so many more customers help to pay.
There being no further business, Alderman Richardson made a motion to adjourn
seconded by Alderman Kent, which was passed unanimously by the Council* and the Mayor de -
