The minutes had been previously mailed to all ~irectors and
upon a motion by Mr. Jennings, seconded by Mr. George, the minutes

The meeting was called for by Mr. Wright for the purpose of
further discussion of the covering of the North Fork Water Company's
ditch within Mr. Fiscalini's proposed development. Attorney James
Edwards was available to answer any legal questions that may arise.
The problem was discussed extensively during the meeting and it was
suggested that Mr. Fiscalini and Mr. Henry Guerth, although a
Director of the company, leave the meeting so that final discussion
and action could be taken by the Board. The request for Mr. Guerth
to leave was requested on the assumption that he would abstain from
voting as he was employed by Mr. Fiscalini. After their leaving the
discussion continued on the subject.
Mr. Jennings moved to allow Mr. Fiscalini to cover the ditch and
that a contribution would be made by North Fork Water Company of
3,500.00 together with Bear Valley Mutual Water Company contributing
the same if their Board so approved. The motion died for lack of
second. Additional discussion was carried on and Mr. Jennings moved
not to accept Mr. Fiscalini's proposal. The Motion was seconded by
Mr. Garcia. A roll call vote was taken, Ayes, Mr. Jennings, Mr.Garcia

the President so inform Mr. Fiscalini of the Board's action.
Additional discussion was carried on at the meeting and upon a Motion
by Mr. Garcia, seconded by Mrs. Kiel that a field trip be made in
the near future at a date of convenience in order that the Board
members become more familiar with the North Fork ditch. Motion
carried.
Brought up before the meeting was the question as to whether we
should continue to keep the two small wells in operation. This action
was deferred upon a Motion by Mr. Jennings, Seconded by Mr. Garcia, to
contact Legal Council concerning the use of these wells and to wr~te
a letter to those stockholders having reservoirs and cisterns and as
to their possible willingness to help defray cost of operating
46
these wells as they have essentially been made available when stream
water has not been available and there is a need for some water
As there was no further business to be brought before the Board
at this time the meeting was adjourned at 9.45 P.M.
