Today I received from the Water District the attached copy of the let creating the District as amended at the 1951 session of the State Legislature. The District is of the opinion the Act particularly Paragraph 8 and 9 of Section I and Section 19 grant it the necessary powers to acquire existing properties and to operate in and along City streets and alleys without securing City approval. The subject will however be referred to 0‘Melveny and Myers for its ruling. W. H. Johnson
