there can be a saving over some of the necessary costs of tax
bills; that such methods, procedures and estimates of alternate
costs be given to them, and that they be told that the District
will proceed in its usual manner toward having the sewersワdワ
constructed by the tax bill method, but that if, before such
contract for construction is advertised, the construction is
being done by private means, then of course, the District will
refrain from proceeding.
The foregoing Resolution was adopted July 14, 1976.
