at the time of the first vote required for such decision, engaged in the business of making,
generating or distributing gas or electricity, for sale for lighting purposes to consumers

corporation such portion of its gas plant and property suitable and used for such business
or in connection therewith, if the municipality has decided to establish a gas plant, or
of its plant for electric lighting, and property suitable and used for such business or in
connection therewith, if such municipality has decided to establish an electric lighting

municipality, provided such plant is being used for the purpose of making, generating
or distributing gas or electricity for sale for lighting purposes in such municipality.(1949 Rev., S. 721.)
