IRRIGON The November rm-eting of the Irrlgon city coun ell. with Marge Shade and Jon Henner absent, centered around progress on the proposed city water system. After hearing a report on wa ter project status from Mayor Chester Wilson, stating that ap plications for water service were coming in slowly, a resolution was adopted, aimed at getting the nevKsury support to get the protect underway. Since re payment of funds must be made directly from revenue, 4H serv ices will be required to finance the project, at the presently set minimum monthly charge of $5.95. Only 35 of this required number nave responded to ap peals for action, leaving 13 re maining. The resolution spelled out program where some, who have vacunt lots and no immediate plan to build, could underwrite the needed services and later be relieved of the guaranteed minimum payment as actual services were connected. This would allow the council to pro ceed with engineering, bonding, contracts, etc., and forestall the possibility of expiration of the period when approved. Federal funds are available. Some have expressed their willingness to cooperate in such a plan. Another related resolution gave the mayor power to sign social water use agreements with the Adventist and Catholic churches. Other public buildings used exclusively for meetings and related activities and hav ing its own meter could qual ify. Others presently within the City have situations that would not place them in this category as they have presently applied for service. A motion was passed above the mayor's protest stipulating that those served by the pres ent water supply, which was made available under an emer gency condition, be notified that this service would be discontin ued as of March 15, 1968, should the proposed water system be abandoned because of lack of subscribers and that no future funds would be allowed for its repair. Signing of a legal agreement with City attorney Donald Mor rison for anticipated services in connection with the water pro ject was deferred to a future meeting. FHA approval must be secured before the City can en ter into it. Also deferred to the next meeting was a tree-planting project along the highway through town. This would need to be submitted to the Highway Department for approval and cost data was lacking at this time.
