Resolution of Necessity for
Construction of Sanitary Sewer
Lift Station and New Outfall
Sewer to Elkhorn River.
Be it Resolved, by the Mayor
and City Council of the City of
O’Neill, Nebraska:
1. That since the present Out
fall sewer has become overload
ed and operates unsatisfactorily
causing sewage to back up into
several basements, it is deemed
advisable and necessary for
health and safety to pass this
Resolution and to make the fol
lowing improvements to the
present sanitary sewage system
in the City of O’Neill, Nebraska.
2. That it is proposed to con
struct a diversion manhole in
existing outfall sewer immed
iately south of C & N W Rail
road on 7th street extended, di
verting raw sewage to a wet
well, pump lift station and new
outfall sewer. Diversion man
hole, wet well, pump lift sta
tion structure and equipment
are to be constructed new and
located in NE corner of the City
Park south of C & N W Railroad.
A new outfall sewer will also be
constructed from lift station
south to Elkhorn River, along
old mill race near east side of
City Park. All of the above im
provements are to be designed
and constructed so as to form
a part of a complete sewage
treatment plant at a later date.
3. To pay the costs of said im
provements, the City shall, after
such work is completed and ac
cepted, issue its negotiable
bonds, to be known as sewer
bonds. There shall be levied an
nually upon all the taxable prop
erty in said city, a tax sufficient
to meet payments of interest and
principal as the bonds become
due and such levy shall be
known as the sewer tax and
shall be payable annually in
money.
4. For the purpose of making
partial payments as the work
progresses, warrants may be is
sued by the City Council upon
certificates of the Engineer in
charge showing the amount of
work completed and material
purchased and delivered, in the
sum not to exceed 85 per cent
of the cost thereof, which war
rants shall be redeemed and
paid upon the sale of bonds to
be issued afore-said.
5. All of the above construe- !
tion is to be done in accordance
with the Engineer’s plans and
specifications therefore, now on
file, which plans, specifications
and estimate of cost are hereby
approved and adopted and by
reference made a part hereof.
8. The Engineer’s estimate of
cost of such improvement is
$37,500.00.
7. Be it further resolved that
the City Council of the City of
O’Neill,'Nebraska, meet at 7:30
P.M. on the 16th of September,
1949, at their regular place of
meeting for the purpose of con
sidering objections to the pas
sage of this resolution and the
making of these improvements,
at which meeting this resolution

passed as proposed, or rejected.

Milners Witness
Big Forest Fire
ATKINSON— Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Milner recently were
staying in a cabin at Rapid
City, S. D., when a forest fire
in that section of the Black
Hills district was reported.
The Milners went to get a
first-hand view of the blaze.
Mrs. Milner said it was both
"breathtaking” and “terrify
ng. First you would see a
blaze shoot skyward along the
line of fire. Then some dis
tance away, tops of other
trees would ignite. Almost in
stantly the intervening space
would break into a blaze.
They were alerted for high
way clearance and were back
in their cabin only about two
hours when traffic was closed
in that part of the Hills until
the fire oould be brought un
der control. The blaze could
be seen at Sundance, Wyo., a
distance of about 70 miles,
where fire fighters were a
lerted.
I he “old timers” explained
that a "top fire" is the most
difficult to control as it jumps'
so rapidly, and the wind gets
a better sweep at it. This par
ticular fire started in a wheat
Held adjoining the forest and
burned over an area of 15
to 18,000 acres. Mr. and Mrs.
Milner returned Friday, Au
gust 26, and they said, while
ihe Hills are a very beautiful
section of our country and
they had many lasting mem
ories of their grandeur, the
excitement of the fire would
probably stand out the most
vividly. However, the con
stant watchfulness and expert
efficiency of the forest rang
ers make a fire of this sort
an exception. Very rarely,
they say, does a blaze cover
more than an acre or two.
The rangers say that light
ning and cigarette stubs form
the greatest hazards.
