Box 86 Glens Falls„ New York TC►eatlemasa: T wish t0 make application to install a six inch main on Linden Ave► i -.the town of Queensbury. For your information I own, on this scree% . Four 100t lots : h�ea 75t lots One 50' lot All of-them are 148* deep, These lots are located on the west side. I T do"not owe any of the property on' the east side. I provided Howard La Rose with a map so that it could be filed with the town board. ftt,,vould be greatly appreciated by me if the town board would extend me' the C!Otwtesy of a variance pursuant to article 3 section 7, by per- mittifg the use of six inch transite pipe, laid in such a manner to com- ply with the proper procedure for such installation. The -reason for my request is to equip the number of lots that I own, roughly the cost would be $500 more for cast iron pipe. Using transite it formerly ran about $300 a 100' and I am not sure as ,to the present cost, - I have a- bout 1000' to lay.
