Councilman Madsen discussed at length the sit- uation at the Cheese factory and brought to the attention of the councilmen what had been previously ordered by the court and what was the situation at the present time. He objected very strenuously to conditions there and spoke with much disfavor on the industrial waste being allowed to go through the sewe system and doing; damage to what was being accomplished at the sewer farm. He suggested that the corporation.do as it had been previously doing and keep all industrial waste out of the sewer system which they were expected to do. Councilman Amaral told of a visit that he had made at the cheese factory since the last meeting to go over the plant and to verify what was being done. He reported to the Council that as far as he could ascertain the owners were not deliberately doing anything in direct violation of the" court order and since they were able to sell all cheese whey etc. it was no object to them to allow same to go into the local sewer system when it could bring a revenue into the corporation fund. A discussion then followed further among the councilmen and it was ordered that action on the situation be deferred until the plant actually became a nuisance.

He spoke with regards to arrangements which might be made at the fire house for one cell. These arrangements could be carried out easily and without excessive cost he stated. The discussion on the matter among the councilmen was. varied. Some felt that the town might continue the availing of itself of the privileges being extended it by Livermore. Others thought that the matter of outlay might be a little in excess of what the income would be and that other conditions imposed by accommodating women prisoner might be to extensive for the town to handle. _ It was generally agreed that the Council should go over the situation at the fire house and in the jail and see what could be done and what it would cost.
