... Tigard ,�:ater District
Tigard, Oregon
November 11, 1953
Present:- D.W.Proebstel, President, C.L.Osborne, C .E.Janoe, Darwin
Shinn, H.J.Heffron Commissioners, and J.P.Lohrenz Supt.
The meeting was opened in the regular manner by the President.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
Engineer Maclntyre stated that it would not be practical to run a
pipe line between the two tanks as the flow of water between them
would not be effecient. He thinks it would be better to install a
large new storage tank at well number two and to install a booster
pump in such a way to equalize the water in the two tanks ih case of
a well failure.
C.L.Osborne moved, C.E.Janoe Seconder that Mr. Macintyre prepare a
preliminary figure on the size and shape of a tank to hold approxi-
mately 200,000 gallons of water. The motion carried.
A bad leak occured on the premises of Gorod's store, account # 36.
11950 cubic feet of water ran through the meter. The amount of the bill
was $ 30.39. Girod' s billis usually is around $ 2.00 per month. Mr.
Girod rents the store from Mr. J.O.Johnson. These men feel that they
should not have to pay this bill. The Supt. notified them of the leak
when the meter was read and they had the leak repaired immediately.
After some discussion about the matter, and since there was no negligence
on their part, C.L.Osborne moved, C.E.Janoe Seconder, that 2$.39 the
excessive part of the bill be written off, and charged on our books
to "allowances on water bills". The motion carried. The above action
is not to be used as an example to estab,lish a preCident* or rule in
future leaks. Eachcase is to come before the Board, and the decission
based on the merits of the case.
A letter from Gilliam J. Fredrick Jr.whose address is on Buttler Avenue
was read. He felt that he should be reimbursed for water connections
made on a pipe line extension which he paid for. C.L.Osborne moved,
H.J.Heffron Seconder, That a letter be sent to Mr Fredrick stating the
resolution of the Board March 10, 194, which covers the matter. The
motion passed. The above letter was written by Atty. C.E.Theelock
dated November, 17, 1953 , and sent to Mr. Fredrick Jr.
C.L.Osborne moved C.E.Janoe, Seconder that the bills be paid as listed.
The motion carried.

term. C.L.Osborne seconder, the nominations be closed. The motion
passed.
As there was no futher business, C.L.Osborne moved, C.E.Janoe seconder
