Attorney Wilson submitted the man prepared by the County Surveyor, as well as the description. It was noted that in the northern end three areas were consolidated by the County ourveyor into one. It was agreed that these areas should be separated to their former state. It was also noted that an additional area, which was consolidated with the Eadie Area, had formerly been separated by the engineer and attorney. It was agreed that they be again separated. It was pointed out that an area of land between Orange and Victoria, and between Olive and Pacific Streets, excepting Clark and Hinkle Subdivision, be drawn up as an additional contemp- lated area. The desire therefor arising primarily in the newly laid -out tract, No. 3996. POSSESSION OF Attorney Wilson reported that he and Engineer Rowe had con - SYSTEM ferred with Mr. McGlothlen with reference to the transfer of possession of the Pioneer Gardens Water Company system to the District before payment of the purchase price, as had been sug- gested by Mr. McGlothlen. Attorney Wilson reported that Mr. McGlothlen said that he would not require interest because he was not now getting interest, and that he was willing for the Board to receive this month's revenue if it paid this month's bills. Manager Rickert reported that Mr. McGlothlen had advised him that after consulting Mr. Cunningham, he had been advised that it would not be advisable to change the water system over to the District prior to receiving the purchase price therefor. FAIRFAX DRIVE On Fairfax Drive it was decided that the District would put in SYSTEM the line, and that the people would pay for installing their own connections at the rate of $25.00 per connection. Attorney Wilson reported that Mr. McGlothlen had informed Engineer Rowe that the well was no good when it was drilled, and was located in a dryhole area, and would, therefore, be of no value to the District. Engineer Rowe reported that any draft whatsoever on the well caused it to suck air. Manager Rickert reported that Mr. Dixon, the owner of the property on which the well is located, is somewhat concerned about having to transfer any interest in his property to the District. It was concluded that the District should receive title to thepamp, motor and equipment, as well as to the 2 -inch pipe line in the street and the pipe leading to the well, but would not acquire any interest in Mr. Dixon's property. NEW SUBDIVISIONS: The Board reaffirmed the policy established at the last meeting where they would be required to advance $2.50 per lineal foot ftw regardless of whether it was 4 -inch, 6 -inch or 8 -inch pipe, and that there by no rebate. It was established as a matter of policy, as per a week ago, that the District will provide the carrier main to the tract as a general rule, with the reserved right to qualify in any particular instance upon considerations of feasibility. With reference to those who would want to have instal- lations before the District took possession, Attorney Wilson 20 SEPTEMBER 24, 1954 NEW SUBDIVISION pointed out that all such contracts that would be made would have to be with the consent of the District, and that anything that Mr. McGlothlen did would be for and on behalf of the District and as its agent. Attorney Wilson also suggested that the compensation be paid to the District by the subdivider, and that the District make a contract with Mr. McGlothlen for the installation, thus saving the difference between the actual cost of installation and the 2.50 per foot, if there was any.
