Mayor Lindsay gave a report on the water facilities of the
Town, along with the urgent need for planning improvements bf
the Town's water mains. The Mayor explained that new construction
and anticipated new developments throughout the Town means that
a greater quantity of water will be needed on both the south
end and north end of Town than can be supplied. The Mayor said
that it was essential that the Town derive sufficient revenue
from the sale of water to pay for the necessary improvements.
Mayor Lindsay said that the Golf Club was doing their part
by digging new wells and installing new pumps for increasing the
water supply. He said that he thought that the Commissioners
Minutes of Meeting - November 9, 1957 (continued)
should soon see that some of the recommendations of the engineers,
Brockway, Weber and Brockway, who made the extensive water survey
for the Town, be considered for construction.
Mr. Pope requested that J. R. Fountain get with Himes and
Himes and prepare a schedule of Revenue and expenses for the
General Fund, along with an indication of the times new construction
began and the times the construction was completed. He also
requested a month by month comparison of the total water sold
the Town of Gulf Stream for the past three years, and J. R.
Fountain said he would prepare these schedules just as soon as
possible after the return of the Town's records now in the hands
of Himes and Himes. J. R. Fountain said he would prepare a
separate schedule for Mr. William LaPorte.
Mr. Dodson moved and Mr. Pope seconded a motion for the
Deputy Town Clerk and Mr. Howard Smith to prepare a new proration
schedule for allocating the administrative expenses between
the Water and General Fund. This schedule to be operative
beginning on October 1, 1957 and ending on September 30, 1958•
Mr. William Koch stated that he believed that there was
a need now for the Town to own a 13 yard packer truck. He said
that with the increase in homes, and the new Westminster
Apartment it was impossible for our garbage men to pick up all
the garbage in the Town in a single day. With a packer truck
less time would be consumed driving back and forth to the town
of Delray's incinerator. Mr. Lilienthal said that the Town
could not purchase a new garbage truck unless it had been set
up in the budget. Mr. Koch suggested that the purchase of a
packer truck be included in the budget for next year.
There being no futher business the commissioners adjourned.
