The meeting of the Town Commissioners of the Town of Gulf Stream,
Florida was held on yednesday May 10,th 1950 at 2 9.30 a.m.
Bresent: Mayor Commissioner L. Seton Lindsay and Town Clerk
Commissioner Wm.J. Bauer.
The minutes of the previous meeting held on April 12th,1950
ware read and approved.
police Officer E. W. 'ooper rendered a report in general.
Commissioner Wm.J.Bauer reported that water samples taken last
month had been approved by the State Board of Health.
Following discussion, upon motion made by Mayor Commissioner L.
Seton Lindsay, seconded by Commissioner Wm.J.Bauer, it was
RESOLVED, that property owners desiring to discontinue purchasing
water during the summer months, must notify the Town Office so
that they may shut off said water and must again notify the Town
Office when they desire it turned on. The charge to be $1.00 for
turning off water and $1.00 to turn it on again.
A discussion was held relative to reducing water rates for those
purchasing in excess of 50,000 gallons per month. A request had
been made to the Town Commission that water sold in excess of
*50,000 gallons be sold at a reduced rate.
The Town Commission thought it might be good both for the Gulf
Stream Golf Club and for the Town of Gulf Stream to make a re-
duction in the rate, whenever the amount of water used exceeds
50,000 gallons per monthq It was felt any reduction in price
should be born jointly by the Gulf Stream Golf Club and the Town
of Gulf Stream, on the theory that both the Gulf Stream Golf Club
and the Town of Gulf Stream would lose money if big users were to
put in their own pumps and wells thus curtailing their monthly
bills.
In the discussion it was suggested that a cut of 25% in the the
overall rate for water wherein over 50,000 gallons was used, might
be about right. This would mean the Town of Gulf Stream would
receive a profit of 6 cents and the Gulf Stream Golf Club would
receive 8 cents instead of 12 cents per ohe thousand gallons.
It was definitely felt that if it is a sound business proposition
to reduce the rate for water used over 50,000 gallons per month,
then both the Club and the Town would profit and naturally both
the Club and the Town should bear an equal percentage of the
reduced price. This might rewire an amendment in the agreement
between the Club and the Town.
There being no further business the meeting adjourned.
