Hunter, Superintendent of Utilities We have submitted an ordinance requesting the removal of the chimney at the North Pumping Station. This chimney no longer serves any purpose at this location. The bid not only includes the removal of the.chimney, but also debris removal and repair of the wall of the building where the bridging is attached. The most urgent need for removal is the safety factor. The chimney is in bad need of tuckpointing, it needs steel bands and ackerman bolts on the top of the chimney. If the chimney is repaired in lieu of re- moval, it will cost $3, 250. There is every indication, unless steps are taken in the near future, that the chimney could fall, particularly from the top. It is our opinion that the repair would be of a temporary nature, and that removal is the better alternative.
