He suggested another avenue for public awareness, besides the public library, of cable television. Chair Haunsperger acknowledged Mr. Polans suggestion and thanked him for his input. Beverly Froude commented that cable television is a valid idea and proposed that when the time came for such a program, the effort be joint with the Intergovernmental Water Board. Jack Polans then asked the Board for its consideration in informing citizens on how to look for possible water leaks.

He asked that this suggestion be somehow conveyed to other citizens.
