Sewer Question Settled for Algona Seeks River Extension

The Algona City Council in a special session accepted J A Hamilton's sewer proposal guaranteeing 20 taps in a year. Estimated revenue from new taps and previously untaxed closets could exceed 800 dollars in the first year, with sewer extension to the Des Moines River to be funded by Hamilton's plan and right of way secured by Sept. 10. A committee was formed to finalize terms with landowners and a temporary wooden sidewalk must be rebuilt along lot 6 in block 223 by Sept. 20.
