pump, the steps taken to correct present noise, and advised they would work
further to eliminate any difficulties we might be having with the purtip, oil
in the water, etc. He believes that recession of water level which occurs
in the winter is part of our trouble. He stated further that he felt the
pump was adequately protected for tim winter and that while the tank might
frost ion it would not freeze.

i s ':ell as the reason for not having a check list . It was the opinion of
Mr . eheelock that these voters did not have to be registered, but must be
a resident ithin the Tigard water District. A check list has never been
been used, as we could not secure a list since the Dis_+rieb is a hart of
several nrecincts.
