that Edge wood can come In under the
eamt term! and provtalona thy now
obtain In tha cltjr of Atlanta for light!.
Thera li at preeent a water main
running through Edgewood to the cor
porate llmlta of Kirkwood, which your
committee ta adrlaed wilt be aufflclent
for both Edgewood and Kirkwood when
certain latteral pipe! are laid ao aa to
fumiah a aupply of water on come of
the principal atreeta. Your committee
And! that tha people of Edgewood are
practically ot one mind ae to becoming
a part of tha citr of Atlanta upon the
terma which are conetdered moat rea-
aonable. which terme are let out In
Exhibit "D," attached aa a part of thli
report, and their approval le heartily
recommended. Edgewood haa ono of
the Aneet public ichool building! In the
entire territory, quite ae good. If not
better, than moat of the schools In At
lanta. It haa a bonded debt of 125,000,
bearing 5 par cent Interest, which wae
created for the purpoee of erecting the
achool bluldlng and Inatalllng an elec
tric light plant and newer*. The achool
le a ten-grade echool, with a corpe of
competent teaehen and aufflclent to
laat for many yearn, all the property
of the municipality would, of coune, be
turned over to the city of Atlanta, and
Atlanta would be expected to aeaume
the outstanding bonds.
Kirkwood.
Another link In the continuous chain
of municipalities and population ex
tending to and beyond Decatur, la
Kirkwood. This corporation baa a
L
population eatlmated at about 1.200;
taxable property at preeent (450,000,
tax rate, 76c^ a bonded debt of (5,000,
which waa created for the purpose of
constructing the present school build
ing, which debt Is to be met by
sinking fund of (1,000 a year, and
there la now In the treasury (1,000 ac
cumulated In this fund. Tho ponulu
lion In this, aa well as Edgewood and
all other territory, Including Decatur
and territory adjacent thereto, le ot
the very hlgheet dace. Kirkwood hae
no water or electric llghte. Tha ex
tension of tho water main now run
nlng through Edgewood to the Kirk
wood school building, which la about
tho center of the town, with such lat-
toral branches as may Le necessary,
will afford ample water aupply for this
section for mnny years.
With the annexation to Atlanta will
come. In the opinion of your committee,
a very lerge Increase In taxable values.
A aufflclent number of people will
agree to take water ao aa to make that
Investment profitable. Therefore, your
committee feels that In tfie case of
Kirkwood, ns well as Edgewood, tho
city of Atlanta would get value re
ceived for every dollar of expenditure
on water malne and that the expendi
tures for all purposes, would not be
excessive. The terms agreed upon
with the committee from Kirkwood
an attached ae exhibit "E." and your
committee recommends their approval.
, Decatur,
This corporation Iwe within Its pres
ent narrow limits a population of 2,509
to 2,000. Imedlately around the cer
tiorate limits Is a large*'population of
probably 1.000 to 1,600 more. On the
present basis. Its taxable property
within the llmlte amounts to' (550,000.
lta tax rate Is (1.15. It has electric
lights; It haa a system of water
works and sewers now in process of
construction, for which It has Issued
bonds to the amount of 144,000. The
money Is In the treesuO' now to finish
the construction of waterworks which
arc to cost 139.000, and sewers to the
amount of (5.000. These ere 5 per cent
19-year bonds and the waterworks for
which they c.vre Issued are well worth
the money ta be expended, and this
system of sraterworks wll be sufficient
for many years. Besides, the system
can be easily and Inexpensively en
larged and extended, If necessary, so
ns to supply water to any surrounding
territory that It may be deetrabla to
serve.
Decatur has a public echool, but the
building Is Inadequate and not well
suited for the purpose. They require a
public echool tu coat (25,000 on land to
be furnished by cltlsens of Decatur, and
now In contemplation, at a cost
000, (5,000 of which Is In the treasury.
They alao desire Are protection and the
construction of n good boulevard be
tween Atlanta and Decatur. This boule
vard, your committee believes, should
be constructed along the present Decs,
tur road, and this would serve both
Edgewood nnd Kirkwood as well aa
DecatUr. This boulevard ought to be
constructed regardless of annexation,
In the Interest of Atlanta, but owing to
the fact that neither Atlanta nor Ful
ton county haa the right or disposition
to expend money on roads In DeKalb
county without eome light of control,
and reciprocal benefits to be derived
therefrom, the preeent road Is a serious
detriment to the trade of Atlanta. The
extension of the clt} so far os to em
brace Decatur wHl result tn the con
struction of a road that will he suitable
for driving and likewise valuable In
the way of Inducing trade to Atlanta
which Is at present kept away by the
condition of the road; to a considerable
extent at least. In addition to thla,
your committee la advised that there Is
now an active movement going forward
among the people of DeKalb county.
