City Ge ts Mee ting
With
Water Customers
The Shelton City Commission
Tuesday decided to invite water
users in several areas outside the
city limits to Lhe commissions Ju-
ly 30 8 p.m. meeting to discuss
possible ways of financing replace-
ment of water lines se*-¢ing these
areas.
City Engineer Pat Byrne told
the commission that the condition
of water mains and lines in the
Beverly Heights area, part oI
Stewarts addition outside the City,
and some areas on Mr. View was
very poor and that repiaeement
was needed soon. He said the lines
in Shultz Addition were too sma
to carry the amount of water need-'
ed t() serve the area adequately, al-
though they were not the main-
tenance prOblem that the other ar-
eas were.
The commission discussed the
possibility of forming an LID for
the repair work.
Byrne said he had cost esti-
mates prepared in his office.
THE COMMISSION ALSO vo-
ed to have the city laws codified
by the Book Publishing Co. of Se-
attle. The firm made a proposal to
the city to do the job for between
$3,500 and $4,000. The commission
agreed to pay the firm $1,000 this
year, which would carry the worl¢
through the initial phases after
which an accurate estimate of the
cost of the work can be made.
Byrne said it was necessary to
purchase two new tires for the
city's Recreation Program bus and
that two more would be needed
next year.
HE SAID THE JAYCEES have
enlisted the aid of other service
clubs and plan to have Callanan
Park in shape for use by the pub-
lic soon. He said the city had
agreed to put the water and sewer
lines to temporary rest room facil-
ities.
The commismon was informed
that arrangements had beGn made
to have a representative of Cas-
cade Natural Gas Company at the
next commission meeting to dis-
cuss inspection of gas installa-
tions in the city.
The commission asked that any-
one interested to attend the meet-
ing July 23 at 2 p.m. to get ans-
wers to their questions.

LYON recommended in his re-
port that membership cards, which
were tried this year before the
buttons were obtained be discon:
ttnued for next year'. The gin-
bership Cards were not arc.opted
y the public, Lyon said, and sales
of them were light.
"Most of the sales were made
after the middle of April", Lyon
said. "when the buttons were av-
ailable."
The group voted to extend con-
gratulations to the Rotary Club,

and to Lyon for the successful

last Thursday night.
Financial reports indicated that
the event this year came out a
liltle in the black, despite several
additional expenses such as the
purchase of new street pennants
and more trips for the Festival

ORVILLE ANDERSON, Queen's

tendance at the banquet was np
this year but. still fell short of
the goal. He reported that 232

Anderson said the biggest prob-
lem in selling tickets to the ban-
quet appeared to be that people
still think that it is a more or
less "closed" affair for a selected
group despite extensive publicity
that it was open to the public.

es.
