presentation to -the committee
Mr. Rose noted that the town is
proceeding with plans for sew
age treatment facilities which
he contended wiU eliminate the
cause of the present polution.
He reviewed the history of the
town’s cooperation with the
Stream Sanitation Committee,
which includes the passage of a
$190,000 bond issue with only
three dissenting votes, the ap
proval of one supplementary
grant by the federal govern
ment and then another one tak
ing into account the additional
requirements which would foe
imposed if the stream is up
graded as requested.
The question remains, how
