The Council of the Town of Leesburg,
Leesburg, Va.
Gentlemen: '
With reference to the question of permitting additional
connections to the private water line, owned and constructed by the
undersigned, we hereby advise that we have investigated the matter
and beg to report that on expert opinion, the line is at present
overloaded, Therefore, we deem it to the best interests of all _
parties concerned, that no permits for additional connections be
granted. we believe our ova water supply would be jeopardized
thereby.
However, if the Town sees fit to grant water privileges
to others, we believe and hereby recommend to the Council that a
water main of sufficient size to furnish ample supply to all who
may connect thereto, be constructed at the expense of the Town.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) G. R. Hughes
