ge Water Q Shelton residents may find their water bills different than usual next month'when the city changes times of reading water meters. Public Works Supt. Bob Temple told the city commission Tuesday. Temple said the city is going to read the meters straight through instead of staggering the reading time. Some bills may be a little larger and some a little smaller than normal for the next two billings, Temple said. He said another change will be that the water bills will all be sent out at one time rather than on different days as has been done in the past. Another benefit, Temple said, would be that there would be no meter reading in January, when the worst weather of the winter usually occurs• The city reads meters every two months. The changes are being made, Temple said, to improve the city's meter reading and billing procedures. ....... :~;::~ e,~ ttl~:~, ~~IIIIP~ County Told About Hunting Ban Rules The county commission does not have the authority to close an area to hunting, but, can close it to discharge of firearms, the commissioners were told Monday by Game Protector AI Rasmussen. The commission had asked Rasmussen to present some information to them on hunting closures after receiving a request from the residents ot Shorecrcst in the Agate area that that area bE closed to hunting. Rasmussen said the State Game Department is the only group which has the authority to close an area to hunting, and, it is against their policy to close a small area such as Shorecrest. lie stated while the county commission did have the authority to close an area to discharge of fireamrs, it would be ahnost impossible for the sheriff's office to enforce such a closure. The commission requested the clerk to write the Shorecrest group stating the information which had been given by Rasmussen.
