Watthour meters in use 508
Fire Hydrants on streets 59
These hydrants have all been fitted with one coupling by the chief engr., and sent bu the Ahern Fox Fire Engine Co., by the hose co.
All machinery at the plant is in good condition except the old Holly pumps which are not reliable and are too small to do the work. Would advise said pumps to be taken out and replaced by a larger standard made pumps.
Would advise a new 150 horse power boiler of good make to be installed at the plant, and no. 2 and No. 3 boilers reset to get proper wall under them and a new smoke stack under them of proper size be built. A new draft pipe proper size across all four boilers and enter into both smoke stacks, this will overcome all steam trouble at the plant at present.
Would advise well #2, be concreted, bottom cleaned out and put in service. This will afford a large amount of water and would be an ease on the pumps.
Would advise two street lights to be installed on N. Bradford Street north of Clara to William Street.
Yours respectfully,
A.L. Kichline, Chief Engr.
