GRANTVILLE WATER AND SEWER
REPORT OF MEETING APRIL 21st,1975
--------------------------------
A meeting was held on Monday, April 21st, 1975, at the Municipal
Office, Three Hills, commencing at g 00 P M
A W Bauer and G G King represented the Municipal District
18 Residents of Grantvllle were present, representing 14 users.
A financial statement was read, as per copy attached and
discussed Total reserves at the end of 1974 were $10,535 00
This is not In a special bank account, but is an obligation
of the Municipal District to that system No interest is
credited to the system
A statement showing the effect of the new Town water rates
was discussed and it showed that with a $12.00 minimum,
this resulted in a break even point without repairs.
Advisability of connecting a water line from the south side
of the road was also discussed This would give better
service in case of a line break on the present system and
some suggested that it might also give better pressure and
an advantage in case of a fire No actual costs were
available, but a figure of $4000 00 was given by G King
as a rough estimate No official contact has been made
with the Town, but it is believed that it would be willing
to allow the connection.
The meeting favoured this new lineGif the costs are
some where near the estimate given, with the expenses
to be paid out of the reserve. They favour a meter and
full time connection To again build up the reserves, they
agreed to a minimum of $14 00 per month No change was
recommended for the 4000 gallon minimum per month or the
charge of $1 50 per thousand for overage. Investigation is
also to be made for any possible Provincial Government grant
assistance. The meeting also favoured billing for the minimum
every month, but having the meters read only every three months.
It was understand that the motel would be billed on the basis of 2
units being equal to one residence, so the total minimum would
be 7 times $14 00 or $84 00 per month.
The Municipal District has agreed to pay the costs of taking
the water and sewer lines to the property of John Barg, for
his new residence This will give the facility to each property
which now has a dwelling As future policy it is recommended
that the developer must pay the entire casts
MEMO The new agreement with the Town should be approved by
Council, but perhaps with a correction in No 7
regarding the sewage charges for the motel
