You directed me to prepare to sell the $150,000.00 of Sewer Bonds and the proceedings have been approved. I have here an Ordinance to authorize the sale of these Bonds. Ordinance #63-13 was then read.in full and then again by title only; being an OrdianceProviding,for the Issuance and Sale" of Sewer Bonds of the City of Tigard, in the amount of $150,000.00 and Declaring an Emergency.

Councilman Klock being absent the vote was `unanimous, majority members being present. Mr.` Boydston: Bunyard and Pettit are low bidders with a total cost of $4,026.o0 against Lakanen+s bid of,$L�,223.00. I_,see no reason why you should not 'award the contract to Bunyard and Pettit. I think that the recommendation should be, the contract should be awarded subject to furnishing required bond and insurance and specified time oy completion. I :feel that probably a,30 day time of completion would be more than adequate and comply with the :easement from Southern'Pacific. Councilman Johnson: I so move. Motion'seconded by Councilman Bergmann and motion unanimously approved, majority Counil being present. Attorney Anderson: I 'have prepared the Curfew Ordinance for approval by Council. Ordinance No. 63-14 was then'read in its entirety and then by title only, being "An Ordinance prescribing Curfew Hours, prohibiting unaccompanied minors from being in 'public `places ' during certain hours, prohibiting parents, guardians and cusdodians' from allowing minors to be in public places during Curfew Hours, providing ;for the enforcement of this Ordinance, and prescribing penalties.. 10-14-63 Page 3 Councilman Cooper: <L move we adopt Ordinance number 63-14. Motion seconded by Councilman Bergmann. Upon call for vote, the motion was unanimously approved, majority members being present. Mayor Woodard: The'people interested In the library have asked if we are willing to allow them to use the two back rooms. They propose to establish a library free of any expense to the City. I would liketo hear any comments. Councilman Johnson: I move we so allow the use of the two rooms. Seconded by Councilman Bergmann. Upon call for vote,' the motion was unanimously approved, majority members being present. Mrs. Beverly Bender spokeaboutthe appointment of the library board. Attorney Anderson suggested there is a procedure set up in the State Statutes that we should follow; probably by Ordinance, he felt, setting up a Board of five members. City Council would appoint the Board, or probably the Mayor could appoint them. Mayor Woodard Would you please have an Ordinance drawn up setting up the library organization. Attorney Anderson: The matter of vacating the part of`Warner Avenue, that was referred to me at theprevious meeting; I have examined the papers and find they are lacking consent from an abutting property owner, so Ihave referred it back to Albertsonts to comply with this requirement. Mayor Woodard: Regarding Jim Willockfs annexation; Jim Willock is .1008 feet from the City property. My idea is we should put in a 12" line, because this line is going to be put in to take' in all the territory south"of his and east to the Highway. 1 think it would be well to put a .trunk line up that street so ` as not to have to run parallel lines again. The question is, who is to pay for that line. I have some ideas, some of this land cannot be .assessed: because it Is field land. I talked to the Attorney about it and he:said 'that ' we could probably work;up some ideas with-Willock and `assess'some of that property on the basis of a regular 811 line and we assume the 'cost of the balance of :the extension. Rather than having "to come to Council on each move,,I would like the Council to give me authority to go ahead and work out the best for;us that I can get;between Mr. Willockrand the property owners so when we are ready I would have to come to Council with the proposition. Councilman Bergmann: I so move the Mayor proceed in that;manner. Motion seconded by Councilman Johnson. Upon call for vote, the motion was unanimously approved, majority members being,present. Mayor Woodard: He wants to know within two weeks; he can't get any money unless we let him know if`:the-,line.will go in. Iwill have Meigs of Stevens and Thompson survey the line'; Attorney Anderson submitted a memorandum concerning review and settlement of sewer connection problems and he was authorized to proceed as set forth in his memorandum. Mayor Woodard: The Planning ;and Zoning Commission has asked ' for authority to put a t} foot wide 'strip of cork across the wall (pointing to the northwest wall and "above the drinking iQ-Ili-63 - Pag 4 fountain); so they can, put up their maps. They will glue this on there and put a metal frame around it. l understandBill Thatcher will furnish the cork free, the frame binding we will have to pay for. ' - I would like to hear any comments or a motion. Councilman Bergmann: I move that we allow the cork to be installed on the wall. Motion seconded by Councilman Johnson. Upon call for vote the motion was unanimously approved, majority members being present. Mayor Woodard: On the question of police hours; I would suggest we stay with the same practice as Beaverton as to hours. We are not set up at the present time to pay overtime for a police officer. We are in the hopes we can;get extra police we can use. According to our budget, the way we are running now, we will run pretty close at the end of the year. I would like to see that we allow no overtime at this time for police. Councilman:Bergmann: Then we will curtail the activity to 40 hours per,week, thatos fine. I also have something else. We have a list of some of the necessary forms we use in our filing system and we have a reasonable price of $30.00 for all of the printed material. (There was some discussion about a card for check data.) It was stated this card would be furnished by the Jaycees,'free of charge to the City. Mayor Woodard: The item that was in the paper (Tigard Times) the other day; there was an item in there about Councilman Bergmann and the policeman. I don't think it was very,good to state that seventy,'percent of our police,pay would come out of fines. I have had a lot of people ,jump me asking are we going to be a "Dundee" or "Dayton". Mayor Woodard read a note from the Recorder regarding the receipt of ten books (250) traffic citation tickets received from the League of Oregon Cities. Councilman Johnson, do,you have anything on the meeting. Councilman Johnson: : The only thing on that meeting was the fact it boiled down to the `fact the people involved admittted they didn1t have a,good plan; when we;presented them with the facts the State would not meet with them, they decided they better go back and get a better plan. They didnt:t see why the City should ` have to,pay 25 percent of putting in this other road, they;said they could change :that. Also the light we requested at Johnson, Main and 99W is going to cost us approximately $4000.0o; the State says; $8,000.00 and we have to pay half;and the maintenance and all the electricity that is used in the City. I pointed out to them in following the' way they have been doing business, I 'don't ' think it is going to be too long ;before'they have a 'Freeway by-passing Tigard. I dontt think we are going to have to be too apprehensive about what is going to happen. It was also pointed out'as far as 217 is concerned that is' a State Highway, they can't do anything. Even if the State were to put this in it would be a minimum of three years as they have no:money to do it. Mayor Woodard read a letter from the Washington County Health Department in regard .to Irvington Machine Works advising they were conducting tests and would advise the City the ;result:of their findings. Mayor Woodard also read a letter from Mr. Wallace in regard to seepage into his home after the sewers were laid. Attorney Anderson suggested}a letter should be 'written him that from out 'best advice it is improbable that it is sewer leakage. 10-14-63 Page 5. , Mayor Woodard: This trouble Mr. Cooper has had with his sewer line up there, I finally got the figures the way this thing 3s laid out and he'did-have an excessively:long branch line. , The contractor saved himself trouble by not going down the center of the street. Mr. Cooper has been charged for a 45 foot branch line, which I don't believe was fair, nor does Mr. Carter. Since l had him get the figures on what the charge was I feel Mr. Cooper did have a right to complain. I would make a`suggestion that Mr. Cooper be allowed to take the 20 feet Off of that line and that we give him credit. It Is 20 feet that he should get back, I got the figures and I"got the contour of the. road. (Addressing Mr. Cooper) -Would you be 'satisfied if we make that adjustment, it amounts to $70.75, Councilman Cooper: Yes I would accept that. Attorney Anderson: You should have the assessment record credited. Mayor Woodard; Is Mr. Cooper satisfied? Councilman Cooper: Yes. Mayor Woodard: I would ask for a motion . Councilman Johnson: I so move. Seconded by Councilman Bergmann. Mayor Woodard: The motion has been made that we credit Mr. Cooper's assessment charge ,in the amount of $70.75. All those in favor give their consent. Councilman Bergmann, Councilman Johnson and Mayor Woodard voted AYE; Councilman Cooper abstained from voting; Councilman Klock was absent. Mayor Woodard: We will now pay the bills. Treasurer-Councilman Cooper 'then read the bills. Councilman Johnson: I move these bills be paid. Motion seconded by Councilman Bergmann. Upon call for-vote-motion was unanimously approved, majority members being present. Councilman Johnson: 1 move we adjourn. Motion seconded by Councilman Cooper. Motionunanimouslyapproved.
