Mayor
The Council of Bel Harbour Village mat Saturday, December 18, 1965,
at 9:30 A. M. in the Village Hell.
All the councilmen were present. Also present were W. H. Webb, Village
Manager and Mary T. Wetterer, Village Clerk.
On motion of Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Landis, the minutes of the
previous meeting of November 27, 1965, were approved as submitted.
Rev. John Yenches and Mr. Hale Printup of the Church By the Sea
appeared before the council regarding the sidewalk in front of the 96v'
Street entrance to the church. Mr. Webb said it had been agreed to
delete this section of sidewalk from the overall plan. Rev. Yenches then
showed the council the landscape architect's renderings for the new treat-
ment of the church property and an overall sketch for 96t° Street.
Mr. Jay Roth, Village Engineer, then presented each councilman a copy
of his report on the survey made by the North Miami Beach engineers' re-
lative to the possibility of supplying us with water. He went over the
report with the council and outlined their source of supply and the areas
served. To serve Bal Harbour would necessitate a 16" water main to be
installed from their terminal point in motel row, an increase in the
capacity of their pumping station at the Intercoastal Waterway and if more
than 2.5 mgd were required by Bel Harbour an additional booster station
would be necessary to maintain proper pressure. The estimated cost of
extending their system to our booster station, not including the additional
booster station, would be $235,750.00. The cost to be amortized by an
80/1000 gal charge over a period of approximately four years. The regular
charge for water purchase to be 250/1000 gal. The proposed rate for
water after the four year period would be 250/1000 for the 1st 30mg.;
next 10 mg., 240; next 10 mg. 230; over 50 mg., 220. Mr. Roth mentioned
that the salt content in the supply which would serve Bal Harbour was
considerably higher than that of their other two plants or of the present
source of supply. However, it is still well within the accepted health

standards, but with an additional demand or: these wells it could r.i,n.
Mr. Landis asked if we could build the additional lines ourselves and Mr.
Webb said that due to the maintenance involved he would he against this
proposal. Discussion continued on the possibility of getting the City
of Miami Beach to give us a contract with a guaranteed supply and adequate
pressure. Mr. Webb said he thought thatthecouncil should ask Miami Beach
for a joint meeting and see if something could be worked out. Mr. Roth
stated that as soon as the report is ready from the North Miami engineers
he would do a similar survey and report to the cuuncit. The matter was then
deferred until the next report would be available. Mr. Webb added that at
one time we were considering putting a booster station at some point in
Surfside around 90th Street to get more pressure to our tank, but atthe time
Miami Beach was nut rn favor of it.
fllr. Webb reported that Chief Dupuy had contacted Chief /muda of the
Metro Department and that they had met to discuss the recall units for the
detectives and walkie-talkie units. A test has been made for the fire unit
and it was very satisfactory. He said he now believed that we can get by on
three walkie-talkie units and two "beepers" for the detectives which will
cost considerably less than the amount authorized at the last mec Linn. He
said he would give a full report at the next meeting.
fllr. Landis said that in checking over the annual audit of the Village
that the figures quoted for transfer or funds in the October minutes did not
agree with the final audit. figures. Mr. Webb agreed that the figures should
be $900 from Dept. 07 and $1400 From Dept. O6 to be transferred $500J to Dept.
050 and $1800 to Dept. 07, in accord with Mr. Landis' findings.
