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. Continued on Pag# Nina. J. 8.
