AMENDMENT OF BY-LAWS, SECTION 7.16 - WATER NOT TO BE USED FOR DOMESTIC
PURPOSES
President Wright explained to the Board and stockholders present the need for
amending Section 7.16 of the Company By-Laws. He read the proposed
amendment as follows: "Section 7.16. Water not to be used for domestic
purposes. The water system of the company is designed to serve water
N? 98
for agricultural use and not for domestic use. Water distributed
through it is and will be subject to contamination and may at
any time or place be unfit for human consumption. Water delivered
by the company shall not be used for domestic purposes. "Domestic
purposes" means the direct use of water from the Company's water
system for normal household uses, e.g., drinking, cooking, bathing,
and the filling of swimming pools. In case of violation of this
section, water may be withheld by the company from any stockholder
guilty of such violation, and such withholding may be made and
continue under any or all shares owned by such shareholder until
such shareholder shall assure the Board to its satisfaction(whether
by written agreement, construction of physical works tending to
prevent domestic use, or otherwise) that such shareholder will
thereafter not use water to be delivered by the company for domestic
purposes."
President Wright asked if anyone had any questions relative to the
proposed amendment. No comments were forthcoming. The amendment
will allow water to be spread for other non-domestic purposes.
M/S/C (Johnson-Kiel) that Section 7.16 of the North Fork Water
Company By-Laws be amended as submitted.
The Board voted unanimously in this action.
