adequately served by lateral sanitary sewers and that the public

WHEREAS, it is now estimated that the probable cost of
installation of such sewer will be approximately Thirty-five
Thousand Dollars ($35,000.00) and that the most practicable method

special benefit assessments upon the land benefited by such
