Mr. Lilienthal stated that the Town was responsible for its maintenance and upkeep just like any other dedicated road in the Town.

Chief Cowart asked the Commissicn to apply to the State Legislatareto ament! the Town Charter to give the Police Department authority to pursue and arrest any traffic viol:.tor outside the Town limits.

BOX 6726 WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA 33405 March 5, 1965 Town of Gulf Stream Gulf Stream, Florida ATTENTION; Mr. William Koch Dear Sir: CENTRIFUGAL PU STEAM PUMPE IRRIGATION SYST Complying with your request for information as to the possibility of obtain- ing water from wells to furnish the needs as set forth by the preliminary report made up by Russell & Axon, Consulting Engineers, dated February 1964, we are pleased to furnish the following information: The property owned by the Village on the west side of U.S. 1 and the south side of the new road from U.S. 1 to Seacrest High School with 190' frontage on the Old Dixie and 300' frontage on the new road would enable you to put two (2) wells on this plot of ground approximately 250' apart and meet the Board of Health approval. This should leave sufficient area for the construction of the water plant mentioned in Russell & Axon's report. The drawback to the installation of two wells on this plot of ground is the fact that the Gulf Stream Country Club has a well directly across the road from this proposed site; and the total potential capacity, should all three of these wells be used at the same time, may cause a drawdown in that area beyond the de- sired minimum level. A well could be drilled immediately east of U.S. 1 from U.S. 1 to the water way; however, this would mean another U.S. 1 crossing of piping from this well back to the plant for the treatment, thus increasing the cost considerably. It would probably be more desirable to move south along the Old Dixie and acquire a piece of property sufficient for your needs, with the piping to be run along the easement to the plant site, thus increasing the area that water could be drawn from and eliminating the drawdown. We would suggest a minimum distance of 300' between well sites. I wish to call your attention to the fact that this treatment plant, as set up by Russell & Axon, was to be constructed on the beach side. The figure they have given, $171,000.00, is for the plant alone. They have estimated an additional $60,000.00 to be required for locating wells on the mainland and piping from the wells to the plant site; this additional sum, of course, should be added to the $171,000.00 estimate. They have based their peak demand of water supply required for fire purposes at 962 GPM. This capacity is reached practically every day at present in the daily requirements of the Town. This can be checked by reading the meter most any day between the hours of 8:00 to 12:00 A.M. TELEPHONE 633-9641 AUTOMATIC WATER SYSTEMS J • P • CA R R O L L, INC.

BOX 6726 WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA 33405 (2) Russell & Axon in their report recommend that your present agreement with the Gulf Stream Country Club be continued, if possible; and that would seem to be the most desirable idea for both you and the Club.
