L. & W. Co. at Main Street. Mayor Cragin who is completing a house on West Charleston asked m e t h i s f morning about a connection from this line and we have received numerous other requests from parties who have only a trickle of water from shallow wells and in some cases have to haul their water in buckets. I assume no deliveries could be made from the 2 4 ” line enroute, except on a wholesale basis through meter service. However, if the meter is to be placed just below the reservoir I assume the distribution of water from the 24” line would be handled by L.V.L.& W. Co. on a flat rate basis..:;..." $ ? v . : J | | . I a m writing you at this time because a number of people on West Charleston who had planned to recondition existing wells or possibly build new ones would refrain from doing so if there is a probability that they could secure water from the 24” line for domestic use. If pur master meter is installed at Main St (Signed) Walter R. Bracken A M P :ep cc: Mr. E. E, Bennett Mr. L. A. McNamee Orig 554 Copy 354 Las Vegas9 Nov. - Water Rights - Water Facilities
