Francis Rose
Irrigon's December Council
session opened with the read
ing of a letter from City
Engineer Tom Clark, evaluat
ing testimony at a recent
sewage disposal hearing, rela
tive to health problems in the
area. He noted that testimony,
at the Health Dept. hearing,
agreed 100 per cent that a
health hazard existed.
In the letter, Clark noted
that a formal decision, from
the Health Dept. had not yet
been made and set some
alternatives for action by the
city in the event such a
decision does not accelerate
acqusition of a municipal
sewage treatment system. He
said that a more intense
sampling program might be
necessary and that another
possibility was expansion of
the present water system, to
reach residences within the
area presently using water
from shallow wells. This
would require these wells to be
abandoned for domestic use.
He stated that the involved
government agencies had in
dicated that help in financing
was available for either alter
native. An engineering agreement
covering work to be done
under the second phase for
the sewer system planning
was tabled until more in
formation on what was actual
ly involved and how payment
would be made, was settled.
Discussion concerning
police protection for the city
centered on the hiring of a new
police-safety officer. A pro
posal to hire Gary Kirkpa trick

who was recently employed by
the city under C.E.T.A. was
strongly opposed by Judge
elect Dianne Brownlee, espec
ially on the method of select
ion. Brownlee maintained that
a position of this importance
to the welfare of the commun
ity should be filled only after
careful consideration of a
number of qualified candi
dates. Since Kirkpatrick was
the only candidate applying
and qualifying under C.E.T.A.
rules and since the loss of
C.E.T.A. funds could occur if
not obligated by the end of
Dec. he was hired to assume
duties immediately. Much of
his employment in the near
future is to bo filled with

Several areas of procedure
