Kerby H 2 0
now on tap
Presentation of an or-
dinance confirming forma-
tion of the Kerby Water
District (KWD) was to
occur on Wednesday, Sept.
3 at 12:30 p.m. in the RCC
Belt Bldg. in Kerby.
The presentation to
citizens of the Kerby com-
munity was to be made by
Josephine County commis-
sioners.
Board members of
KWD are Gail Lebowitz,
John Plute, Sharon Miller,
Geraldine McLean and
Shirley Fredrickson.
Plans call for the city
of Cave Junction to pro-
vide water to KWD as a
single customer through
one meter. The district will
handle individual billings.
Each KWD customer
will be billed by the dis-
trict for a minimum $25
per month for the first 500
cubic feet of water used.
The district and city will
coordinate installation of
meters and equipment.
The city will provide
basic operation and main-
tenance of KWD’s distri-
bution system.
The Kerby community
has for years depended on
individual wells and the
Kerby Ditch Association,
but connecting to the city
of Cave Junction’s system
will provide a reliable,
steady and sanitary supply.
Calls to the county
economic development
office were not returned by
press time. (Editor’s Note:
Information for this story was
not provided until Friday, Aug.
29; otherwise it would have
been in last week’s issue.)
