The sewer originally drained into Laurel Creek, but the locaâ€" tion was changed. Since then the water drained along the old creekâ€" bed into the new location on Lauâ€" rel Creek. Recently the university began building a parking lot, enclosing the old creekbed and damming the water on city property. The city asked the university to share in the cost of extending the sewer, which also services part of the university property, but the uniâ€" versity refused. _ In other business, the commitâ€" tee agreed to pay $12,000 to $14.000 for construction of a storm sewer. The storm sewer extension will be needed to cross a University of Waterloo parking lot on the south side of University Avenue. But Mayor Paleczny said Monâ€" day night the original alignment of Ottawa street as a service road running parallel to the exâ€" pressway was a mistake. ‘"You mean you didn‘t want to be confused with the facts," Mayor Paleczny said, laughing.

Committee members decided the city has no alternative but to drain the water away. The university was aiso given permission to cross University Avenue to extend underground wiring for parking lot lights. The university will assume all costs. The committee agreed to purâ€" chase about 50 acres for $221,500 from Ailpine Investments Ltd. for the Kâ€"W Expressway in the area of Homer Watson Boulevard. The purchase includes a modernized farm house valued between $25,â€" 000 and $30,000.

Yet there is still another charâ€" acteristic which is remembered THEY SHOW THEIR SPIRIT Mr. Forbes said if the arrangeâ€" ment fails he would correct the situation later.

M. Henderson, 290 Langford Place, were promised a $200 chainâ€"link fence to keep school children of their property.
