<br />I <br />I- <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />-I <br />I <br /> <br />The water utility is the most important consideration of the <br />Silt administration relating to development. The existing water <br />system has been constructed, operated, and maintained by the town <br />administration for many years, and has been inadequate for several <br />years. The present water system is not adequate to provide sufficient <br />water to present town customers during dry periods or during periods <br />of moderate use, and the town has had a moratorium in effect on new <br />water taps for approximately a year. The need to develop a reliable <br />and safe system of providing water for domestic and fire protection <br />needs has long been recognized by the town administration, and every <br />possible effort has been expended by the officials to accomplish the <br />means to these ends. <br /> <br />LAWS OF INCORPORATION <br /> <br />The Town of Silt was incorporated in 19l5, and the present state <br />laws regarding Silt's incorporation are found in Section 31-1 CRS 1973. <br />The Colorado Statutes, which spell out the specific authority of <br />Silt and related disciplines, are listed below: <br /> <br /> Right of Eminent Domain CRS 1973 <br /> Power to Enter Into Contracts CRS 1973 <br /> Right to Levy Taxes CRS 1973 <br /> Power to Contract Indebtedness CRS 1973 <br /> Power of Annexation CRS 1973 <br /> Power to Pass Ordinance CRS 1973 <br />WATER SYSTEM-HISTORY <br /> <br />The information presented in this section was obtained primarily <br />with the help of Mrs. Helen Pyles, Town Clerk for the Town of Silt, <br />to whom we are sincerely grateful. In the absence of written record, <br />Mrs. Pyles has provided much insight into the history and past <br />practices of the Silt water system. <br /> <br />II-2 <br />
