"If you would like us to do the work, just have your attorney look over the contract and we'll get together and fill in the numbers." meeting, Lewis stated his company did not want to rush into a contract without the town attorney's approval. JUSl lasi monih, council members voted to pay 5500 to legally break a longstanding contract with Kaleigh engineers Peirson and Whitman Inc. that included no clause for when the contract was to expire. Peirson and Whitman designed a town water system in 1975, but the plans were never accepted by the council. County Engineer Daniel Shields estimated that irmtallinf watei* linec to the Calabash River and along the waterfront would cost the town around $60,000. Lewis agreed with that rough estimation Monday, saying it would be in the neighborhood of $60,000 to $70,000. "You car. get water put in there pretty quick if you can get the money," Lewis added.

There are three ways to help fund a sewer system, either with Farmers Home Administration loans, clean water bond funds or with cr.v:rcr.~.cr.~. prc?cc?icr. agency funds, Lewis said "But even with all this, the town is still going to have to have some money," Lewis said. Once the water system plans are approved by the council, they must pass approval by the county and then by the N.C.

Council members added Monday they were ready to begin planning for water, but not quite as ready to begin talking about sewer. "We wanted to get both, but not at the same time," Ms. Stevens said.
