The Weiberg property was again considered and Mayor Endress stated that ne had a call from Mr. 1`~a.rch a month ago stating that >.~f they could not get permission to use this property they might consider a Court somewhere else. It was Council's thought that the matter be tabled. Mayor Endress then stated that he was much concerned with the condition of oux~ sewer along Wilson Mills Road and the possibility that with Spring rains we would again be faced with flooded-basements and wondered if -someth'~ng could be done ahead of time to ward off this danger. Our Engineer stated that our Police Chief should check on all the downspouts connected into the sewer and issue trarrants to have them removed and thus eliminate some of the surface water in the sewer. Mr. Wieland stated that there were only two down spouts connected into this sewer whic:n tirere at the lower end and would have no effect on flooded basements. The condition of the manholes was discussed, but it was felt that any money spent to rectify this situation would bewasted. Council took no action. T~Ir.
