3-76 Regular Meeting

Minutes (Continued)
Discussion was held on possibility of drilling a 5th well.
Hugh Brown advised the Board that the firm where he is employed
has become the exclusive distributor in Oregon, Washington, and
Idaho for the Speed Star Division of the Koehring Corporation,
manufacturers of well drilling equipment. Therefore, he stated
he is not just a casual observer in the passing scene when it
comes to wells. He noted, further, that should the water district
decide to drill a well, in all probability, Tigard Water District
would not be purchasing equipment from his firm, but would most
likely be contracting with a well drilling company who purchased
and utilized equipment from his firm.
Ken Baines advised that there may be a potential conflict
of interest and it should be included in the official record.
Administrator was instructed to investigate all the facts and
determine cost estimates to obtain a well site and drill another
well.
Water service to the City of Durham and the adjacent area
recently annexed to the City of Tigard was discussed.
Purchase of a reservoir site for the terminal 10 MG reservoir
on the Ames' property located near 121st and Bull Mountain Road was
discussed.
Motion was made to adjourn at 8:53 p.m. Motion carried
unanimously.
