Motion was made and seconded to agree to serve domestic and
fire protection surplus water to area south of Beaverton-Tigard
Freeway along S. W. 72nd Avenue located within the Metzger Water
District as out-of-district customers and rates, commencing with
a satisfactory agreement with Metzger and approval of the City of
Lake Oswego to authorize Tigard to serve the area. Amendment was
made to motion and seconded prescribing that Tigard Water District
would maintain the existing distribution system in the area and
shall have the right to make such inter-connections and capital
improvements for the benefit of the Tigard Water District.
Amendment carried. Motion carried.
Verne Wheelwright moved and it was seconded that out-of-district
rates for meters larger than 3/4-inch service be based on in district
rates plus 25% of water consumed. Motion was ruled out of order
because of required legal hearings that must be held for the public
in order to raise rates. Administrator was instructed to study and
recommend new additional rates for out-of-district customers for
meters larger than 3/4-inch.
It was suggested by John Wied that Tigard Water District go on
record as favoring a consolidation or merger of Metzger and Tigard
Water Districts. The Beard of Commissioners, substituted therefor,
a desire to go on record as willing to discuss merger with any other
organization.
Verne Wheelwright moved and it was seconded that the Board accept
the 1972-73 audit report as received and presented by Coopers and
Lybrand, Certified Public Accountants. Motion carried.
