OLD BUSINESS:
Storey reported that Rural Water
District #1 had made a decision regarding the installation of the
regulation
fire hydrants. Rural Water agreed to
install one hydrant at Brockus Corner, but had declined the proposal to
install
a hydrant at the mobile home park West of Mud Creek on SH-3. Rural Water stated that there were valves in
that particular location that would make installing a hydrant extremely
difficult. The fire department will be
required to pay for all materials to install the hydrant.
The estimated cost of installation is
approximately $1,200 apiece. Members
agreed to table the matter until sufficient funding can be acquired.
NEW BUSINESS:
Members agreed to hold the July and
August meetings at the Senior Citizens Building in Haworth.
ADJOURN:
Owens moved to adjourn. Coffman
seconded. All members in favor. Meeting adjourned at 7:29 p.m.
