Seu-er facility study
under way
The Irrigon City Council
session was chaired by Pro
Tern Mayor Bill Cooley on Oct.
9, since Mayor Vernon Stew
art was out of town. Benny
Reeves was also absent and
the vacancy created by the
resignation of Councilman
Warren Prouty a month ago
has not been filled.
The main topic of business
was presented by Tom Clark
of Vitro Engineering who is
doing the sewer facility study
and related consultation work.
He presented data covering
lands suggested for location of
sewage treatment facilities.
One of the sites is federally
owned and was recently
declared surplus by the gov
ernment. It lies at Washington
Avenue and 4th Street West.
Action was taken by the
council to make application to
acquire that portion of the
property lying east of 4th
Street West.
The two sites were dis
cussed at length and date was
set for a public hearing on
. proposals related to the faci
lity plan. This hearing will be
held Wednesday, Nov. 14, at
7:30 p.m. at the A.C. Houghton
School Auditorium.
Signing of an engineering
agreement between the city
and Vitro Engineering for
incidental engineering work
was tabled.
Clark also presented the
metter of population projec
tion for the city, which he said
could have a bearing on grants
available to the city.
Some of the environmental
agencies question the reality
of the city's projected popula
tion of 1,970 by the year 2000.
At the time the projection was
made the population was 470,
which would call for an
increase of approximately 400
percent.
The Morrow County popula
tion projection at the time was
5,100 for 1980 and 6,600 for the
year 2000, for a county
increase projection of 1,500. If
correct this would put the
county's increase in the Irri
gon area.
These projection figures are
a part of the city's comprehen
sive plan which was prepared
by East Central Oregon Asso
ciation of Counties and ap
proved by the State Land
Conservation and Develop
ment Commission.
Until the agencies involved
can come to agreement on
projection figures, progress
will be delayed, Clark said, as
it will make a tremendous
difference not only for engi
neering services but cost of
construction whether a 30
percent increase is anticipa
ted or 400 percent.
The matter of a court clerk
was discussed. Municipal
Judge Dianne Brownlee said
20 to 30 hours monthly would
be involved. She said the work
cannot he adequately per
formed by her while sitting in
judgement. The city recorder,
Barbara Draxton, was ap
pointed to perform the duties
of court clerk, with the
provision that she report to the
council when , the work con
flicts with city business so
re-t . -i-'uation can be made.
