Undftr the 10-year contract which ia to expire next week, the City supplies water to the stretch along St. Clair River front from Davis road to the St. Clair River Country club and the land on the west side of River road to a depth of 200 feet. The Township Board members indicated that any expansion of these boundaries would be wel comed.

Of special importance however, members noted, is the area on Violet avenue to Pug road, about a mile distance. This 'extension was visualized as being a big factor for development of the Snyder subdivision. Ralph Welser, St. Clair Town ship Supervisor, told the Commission that an estimated 21 new homes could be erected and occupied in the subdivision as soon as water becomes available. Mr.

Welser said that the Township at present does. not need more water than the 50,000 gallon daily limit in the present contract. It was pointed out that even at peak periods the area consumes only about 30,000 gallons per day. If the Township revenue base widens enough, consideration will be given to erecting a water storage tank to take advantage of the extra capacity, the Supervisor noted. City Engineer Lawrence A.

18. He MARYSVTLLE An agreement! was reached Thursday by the City Commisison and the Federal Government for the transfer of City property as a site for new headquarters of the U.S Border Patrol. The accord came during a Commission meeting after some "worrisome" red tape which had impeded the agreement several months was deleted from the proposed contract by Woodrow Belcher, Chief Procurement of ficer for the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. Mr.

Belcher, St. Paul, assured the Commission that no cost would accrue to the City as a result of the property trans fer. Inmddition it was stressed that the property 200 feet along the front and 150 deep on the west side of River road just north of Riverlawn Cemetery would revert to the (Sty if ever the Government abandons its use. Past negotiations on the prop erty bogged down under the weight of legal language in the contract drawn up by the Bor der Patrol. The fine print specified that the City would have to pay for all costs involved in the transfer, even the expense of surveying the property.

These expenses were estimated at $2,500. But the procurement officer Kreeu iu wnive u.c of ura parmarltpH for DlirchasinBi 'Si he 8aUTha? investment is to be made in the property will merely be subtracted from the building grant.
