Young so that a tract of land on County Road could be sub - divided into two lots of 80t frontage each was read approved and adopted.

It was agreed to charge them for 4,004,000 gallons, this being the difference between the master meter readings for the month of April and the total water sold to each customer in Gulf Stream. The Commission did not feel they could charge Boynton at a different rate than what we sell water to residents of Gulf Stream namely 20¢ per thousand gallons.
