Simmons were present requesting infor- FLAMINGO STREETS mation concerning annexation of Golondrina and Flamingo ANNEXATION Streets. Mr. Simmons was informed that no decision could be reached by the Board until the Petition for Annexation was submitted -in order that the names could be checked in theCountyAssessor's Office. Mr. Simmons was also informed that the costs of annexation would have to be paid by those wishing to annex to the District within that area. ENGINEERES Discussion was held concerning the responsibility for in- REPORT -SEWER stallation of sewer laterals which had been installed too LATERALS high to permit connection from certain properties. Engineer Reiter explained that it was only in a certain area and in most instances, was due to the fact the property owners had installed their own lines on the upstream side rather than the downstream side. He also informed the Board that col- lection lines had been installed at a depth in the entire V Fj I u 263 April 13, 1959 area which would allow 99°x, in all probability, to connect at this depth and for the small percentage that would not be able to connect, the cost to the District for a greater depth would have been prohibitive or approximately $300,000 or $400,000. It was also stated that in most instances the lowering of the street lateral had been done by the contractor at no cost to the District and it was the opinion of Engineer Reiter that there would be very few instances in the future whereby the District would have to lower any of thelaterals. It was the decision of the Board that all laterals that had been installed at the expense of the District, and those in the future, would be noted and further discussion held with the engineers regarding responsibility of the laterals at a later date.
