Special Meeting

The Special Meeting of the Town Commission was called to order by the

The Town Attorney, Thomas E. Sliney, entered the meeting at 9:35 A.M.
There were several Town residents in the audience.
Mayor Horton announced that this Special Meeting had been called
for three purposes: Consideration and possible approval of a
Proposal received from Ross, Saarinen, Bolton & Wilder, Inc.,
regarding the Water Treatment Plant expansion; Bills for Approval
and any and all other matters that might come before the Commission.
Mayor Horton stated that a letter had been received from Mr. John
• Roberts of Ross, Saarinen, Bolton & Wilder, regarding their pro-
posal for preliminary work at the water plant. This work would
be necessary to come up with a cost estimate which could be used
in determining the amount of a bond issue which would be required
for the Water Plant expansion.
Mr. Saarinen then proceeded to review the proposal for the
Commission. Mayor Horton asked Mr. Saarinen if the Design Report
could be presented to the Town Commission by February 1, 1979
inasmuch as this would be needed in order to float a bond issue.
Mr. Saarinen replied in the affirmative. Mayor Horton further
stated that if a bond issue is not passed, it is very possible
that the Town would not be able to issue any more building
permits.
There was discussion among the members of the Commission, along
with Mr. Saarinen.
MOTION by Commissioner Genovese/Commissioner Storm that the Town author-
ize Ross, Saarinen, Bolton & Wilder to proceed with the Water Treatment
Plant and Well Expansion Design Report. In polling the Commission, the
vote was unanimous in authorizing the Town engineers to proceed.
