ASK FOR SEWERS

The colleger* presented the following letter to City Council at its meeting on Tuesday evening: August 6, 1907. lo the honorable Council qf the lily qf Cape May. Gentlemen;— te before j erti this e\cning a* Property Owners, Tax Bearers and a* members of the Property Ow ner* l*n«teclDe AasiguaUun of Cape May, with the view-of calling to your sitemion g for your immediate consideration of a condition that at pr»eut exists which we consider is not only a discredit to the city of Cape May bt j ha* reached the point that’ «c foar i» iwoouimg dangerous to the health of ■he occupant* of the cottages in Uie locality where this condition exists. allude lo the constant overflow of certain properties by reason of ituproi>draiuage. The organization of the Property Owners Protective Associnfor the express purpose ol taking such action a* is considered remedy this evil, and we ate here this evening for the purpose o. first asking What the pro|ierofficial* of the city of Cape May can do for u*. At j the first meeting of this organization ening, which was held at the Chalfont Hotel, your city solicitor Hi, deavored to ex|>!gln that he fhd not consider that the city was at fault, and that the only redraw that Hie Property Owners who were being damaged by of the flood of Ihpir various properties was against the Robb Estate owing to Uw fast of their filling up o. this tract, and that the city council had notified those in charge of the caul* of the difficulty, and that up the present time nothing bad been done In the w ay of remedying this evil. Now we bey to sgy that we do no. agree with the sUtetnenU made b. your solicitor, from what we learn tb difficulty Is due lo the filling up of Hi sewfirs that drain this portion of Uk island by sand and mud and no doub emanates from the material that habeen pumped IntoAhia tract. Now athe sewers of this city are entirely un der the jurisdiction of the city council, it behooves this body to see that this is corrected either by compelling the parties who have caused this condition and if not successful U falls upon tbe city themselves to do so. The lax that you exact from your Property Owner* is supposed to bc used for this purpose and If they are deprived of the conveniences such tu proper sewerage and drainage, wehau a right to protest and ask for lhar conveniences that we are supposed to be paying for. There U no denyinK the fact that any property owner bathe right to fill up his propert v Dial bicorudders below grade, and that bineighbor can have no Just cause foi complaint, but if In doing so he should by any reason cause an obstruction to the sewer system and by so doing dc prive hi* neighbor from thdr. use of the sewer* or drainage the proper place to make complajnl and whose duty is that this is corrected la the city council. We trust, therefore, gentlethst there will be no further delay and that every effort be made to bring about a remedy of this evil which has now reached the danger

point.
