"COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES
HEALTH DEPARTMENT
808 North Spring Street
Los Angeles 12, California
February 1, 1951
City of E1 Segundo
Office of Engineering
209 West Franklin
E1 Segundo, California
Attention: Mr.Donald R. Short, Director of Public Works
Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: Proposed Sanitary Sewer District
No. 501115, City of E1 Segundo.
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that sani-
tary sewers be installed in this District.
ANALYSIS: This Department has made an investigation
of the area of the proposed sanitary
sewer district #501115, located in that portion of East
Maple Avenue, lying and being between California and Center
Streets and in that portion of California Street lying
and being between Walnut and Palm Avenues.
The results of this investigation indicate that six property
owners or tenants were contacted. This is a newly de-
veloped and sparsely populated section of town. Most of
the homes are from tree months to two and one -half years
of age. One property owner stated that their cesspool
overflowed after eight monthst use, and they made arrange-
ments to connect to the sewer. The soil in the area of
this District consists of fine sand silt and some clay.
This type of soil is not conducive to any type of indi-
vidual sub - surface sewage disposal system, and systems
installed in this area cannot be expected to function satis-
factorily over any great period of time without creating an
insanitary condition.
Several domestic water wells of the E1 Segundo City Water
Department are located in very close proximity to the homes
in this District. In fact one residence at 836 California
Street has a cesspool within approximately one hundred feet
of one of these wells. This cesspool is located to the
North of this water well and in what this Department would
assume as directly in line - from North to South - with
the underground water flow.
-2-
This Department has also been informed that on other
vacant lots adjacent to this well, restrictions have been
imposed to prevent building on these lots until such time
as sewers are available. This restriction was a.measure
necessary to preclude the possibility of contaminating
this city water supply well with sewage.
In view of our survey and due to the close proximity of the
E1 Segundo water supply wells to this area, this Department
respectfully recommends that proceedings be instituted at
once for the installation of sanitary sewers as an improve-
ment necessary to the protection of public health. This
recommendation is made pursuant to the provisions of Section
2$08 of the Streets and Highways Code.
Very truly yours,
Roy 0. Gilbert M. D.

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
A number of citizens of the City of E1 Segundo residing

Council respecting'an alleged nuisance being maintained at 715
West Mariposa Avenue, E1 Segundo, by Mr. Kenneth C. McIlroy,
who is conducting a sand recovery and disposal business at said
address, and each of such persons requested that the Council
take action to cause said Kenneth C. McIlroy to be restrained
from further conducting such business.
The City Attorney explained in detail to those present
that the only action the Council could take in the matter
would be to cause a civil action to be filed in the Superior
Court alleging that such a nuisance existed. He then asked
those present who would be willing to testify in court that
such nu- isance existed and give their reasons therefor, to
arise and give the Clerk their names and addresses. The'

Mr. Binder then further discussed the matter with the Council,
stating he was in favor of such a project if suitable quarters
could be provided therefor.
Mr. Arthur Viren, who was present in the Council Chamber,
stated that the Boy Scout building might be available inasmuch
as same was used only occasionally during the daytime. How-
ever, it was agreed by those interested that such building
was too far removed from the center of the city for such purpose.

all, appointed Councilmen Swanson and Thompson to make an in-

quarters which might be available for a meeting place for the

and had thereafter requested the Engineer of the State Health
Department and a representative of the Los Angeles County Smog
Control to make an inspection of the sewage plant; that the
representative of the Los Angeles County Health Department had
again called at the Clerkts office on Monday,' April 30th, and
advised her that representatives of the before mentioned depart-
ments had made the inspection requested and had advised the
said Los Angeles County Health Department that measures would
be immediately taken to abate the nuisance, which it was anti-
cipated should be completed within the next ten days.
Mr. Cosby thereupon stated he was satisfied with such report.
Mr. Arthur Viren addressed the Council respecting the pro-
cedure to be taken to cause dedication to be made to the City
of the undedicated portions of Walnut Avenue, Bungalow Street,
and Maryland Street immediately south of the proposed Tract
No. 15692, with the view in mind of completing such dedications
in time so that the streets so dedicated might be improved
simultaneously with the improvement of the streets in the pro-
posed Tract No. 15692.
The City Attorney thereupon stated that deeds would be pre-
pared in his office to cover dedication to the City of the various
parcels involved, following the delivery to him of legal des-
criptions of the property to be dedicated.
