re- TWO SANTA CRUZ SENTINEL, SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA Tuesday, February 25, 1936 RESIDENTS OF SOQUEL SIGN WATER PETITION City Now Hesitates To Tack On New Business At least 107 property owners in and around Soquel want Santa' Cruz water, L. T. Baldwin, spokesman for three residents of Soquel told the city council yesterday morning. Baldwin said the persons signing the petitions, as well as most of the other property owners in the vicinity, would be glad to get local water in preference to the well water and reservoir water now being used. "We don't like frog pond water," he told the council.

There will be about 140 property owners in that vicinity who will probably sign up for water, it was said. Mayor Roy Hammond, talking for the council, told the trio from Soquel, who presented the petitions, that several had come to him, protesting the sending of Santa Cruz water to Soquel and that the water department faced several obstacles before anything could be done in the matter. The San Lorenzo valley has objected to the draining of their watershed to supply Soquel with water, the mayor said. Baldwin said the present rate for water is higher than the prices of water in Santa Cruz, the minimum price being $1 per 450 cubic feet of water. The mayor told the group that he believed the water main now supplying water to the people this side of Soquel would not be enough to carry enough water that disbig, trict's needs and added that a reservoir might be needed to amply supply Soquel and vicinity with Santa Cruz water.
