Councilmen Inspect Leaburg Creeks For Water Supply
Seven council members and fourteen observers examined Johnson, Ritchie, and Forrest creeks near Leaburg to assess gravity water line potential. They estimated flows from 1.3 to 2 million gallons daily and noted Johnson creek could feed a pipeline with modest cost, while Ritchie creek offered the strongest supply and cleanest water. The party, returning tired after a 22 hour trip, included engineers from McClain and McArthur and City Engineer Waggoner, with no moonshine found during a police search.
