Sanitary District Seeks North Shore Sewer System
The Sanitary District of Chicago plans a six and a half mile north shore sewer from Wilmette to the county line with Winnetka and Kenilworth sites, including tunnels and open cuts. Bids open next month for brick concrete or segmental construction with completion by December 1, 1915. Chicago council faces opposition over water meters amid claims of graft and higher rents, arguing surplus funds are misused and water service is poor compared with major cities.
