A special meeting, of the
Heppner common council wai
held Thursday evening to hear
a report from City Engineer
Steve Anderson regarding
passage of the water bond
issue, and his recent findings
with the State of Oregon's
Health Division.
Clyde AUstott, president of
the council, acted as chairman
In the absence of Mayor Jerry
Sweeney, who was In Port
land. Recording Secretary
Elaine George was also ab
sent. Anderson said he had re
ceived letters and confirmed
them by phone calls to both
Leo G. Fan- and D.J. Hebard
of the health division verifying
28 new connections for the City
of Heppner. However, Ander
son stated that the state had
placed three restrictions in
their letters; namely, that
detailed plans be submitted to
the department for its ap
proval prior to any construc
tion, that all new water
connections have 30 pounds
pressure per square inch (psi)
rather than 20 psi, and the
improvements of Well 3 be
corrected before July.
Improvements to Well 3
include replacement of the
pump and motor, pump con
trol valve, and miscellaneous
valves and fittings. The state
has also requested the city to
raise the present casing and
reinforce the existing concrete
slab.
Anderson again stressed the
point that building applica
tions should be handled in
dividually, and if necessary,
pressure checks be taken to
make sure that the line has 30
psi at all times.

Anderson Mid he has
meeting scheduled with the
Corps of Engineers, Walla
Walla, on Jan. 3, and he will
report back to the city at the
council meeting on Jan. 7, as
to the results of that meeting.
At the meeting Anderson
hopes to make satisfactory
financial agreements with the
Corps for cost sharing of the
relocated facilities and also
hopes to obtain funds for
design plans.
Anderson also stated he has
contacted Berwick L. Wood,
Kamhoot-Wood Construction,
Lake Oswec. as they are
interested in developing the
area near the Pioneer Hos
pital. However, their tentative
plans are for low-cost housing
development.
Also contacted was Kinzua
Corporation, which will sub
mit plans to the city prior to
the January meeting for the
construction of homes for
their employees, necessitated
by their present expansion
program.
Anderson notified the coun
cil that he had contacted a
steel company after passage
of the bond issue and had been
told that the price of steel
needed for the construction of
the reservoir had risen $30,000
in the past few weeks.
With the absence of Elaine
George, recording secretary,
there were indications that
although the council had voted
and passed on the building
permit for Howard Carrells, it
might be best to vote on and
issue the permit again as
there were no notes available
to indicate the council had
approved the building permit
previously.
with them.
Othejr places of interest to be
visited include Guadalajara,
Acapulco and Victoria before
re-entering the U.S. at Har
lingeni Tex.
If the gasoline is available,
and "if the creeks don't rise,"
they will visit Arkansas before
returning to Heppner in early
March.

Randy Lott asked question
of Anderson regarding some
permits in the Lott Subdivi
sion, and was told to file
building permits where he was
certain he had 30 psi. Lott
noted that two of his lots in the
subdivision, served by the
existing line in Water Street,
had sufficient pressure to
meet state requirements, and
he would ask the council for
approval at the next regular
meeting.
