Town Worried Over Water Supplies; Have Meeting To Discuss In a special joint meeting called by the mayors of Zebulon and Wendell, the two Town Boards met last night to consider the possibility of a water filtering plant that would meet the needs of the two communities. The call session was held at the Bank of Wendell. Mayors Joe Henderson of Wen dell and T. Ed Hales of Zebulon called the meeting in the interest of providing an adequate water supply to not only meet the needs of the two growing communities but to attract new and sizeable industry to the area. The meeting comes on the heel of a rumor cir culated here last week that the Zebulon - Wendell communities were rejected last month by a large manufacturing firm seeking to locate in the area because of an inadequate water supply. John Edwards of Raleigh, the engineer for both of these eastern Wake county towns, met with the group last night. Edwards told the group that the two towns were fortunate to be situated two miles on either side of Little River and that the com munities had enough water that could supply 1,500,000 gallons of water daily plus an unlimited storage of millions of gallons of water. The present Zebulon wa ter supply is only 200,000 gallons daily and Mayor Henderson re ported the Wendell supply was about the same. Zebulon has some 650 water customers and Wendell has service to about 550 homes. Wendell has some 300,000,000 gal lons of raw water stored in the thirteen acre Rock quarry. Zebu lon has a 20 acre lake of raw wa ter on Little River. Edwards proposed a centrally located water filter plant on High way 64—Business, midway be tween the two communities. A ten-inch water main would be run to each of the towns. This would mean the opening up of four miles of highway frontage to new industry and new housing. It would also make available four miles of property on the Norfolk and Southern Railway Line.
