Once in place, they said, a unit's Impact on the sewer system would not change. The fee will be levied against the owner, not the tenant. "If It's a rental, the owner pays," said Alderman Wilton Harrelson. "Ho can charge any way he wants to cover his costs. That will be between him and his tenants." Existing spaces would not be affected. The one-time fee is to be based on the size of the unit first moved into the space?the minimum $500 for a two-bedroom mobile home or $600 for a three-bedroom unit. This clarification isn't expected to liave an immediate impact. There Is only one mobile home park presently located within the town limits, and to the board's knowledge, the owner has no immediate plans for expansion. Another town utility?water?dominated the remainder of the 2-hour meeting, as aldermen grappled with the question of how to nav for needed water line extensions within town. After a lengthy discussion, the board authorized Mayor Beamon Hcwett to negotiate with T & T Development Co. on extension of water service to its location on N.C. 130 within the town limits.

The town wants the existing water line replaced with six-inch pipe and extended to the far end of the T & T property line. Aldermen said they were willing to work with the company to get this done, rather than forcing the firm to pay the entire cost itself. "I think it's the town's responsibility to increase the line size to the end of the existing three-inch line," said Gause, with other board members in agreement. The town will offer an in-kind contribution of labor, since it doesn't have the required cash. Hughes is to prepare estimates for both labor and materials. "They concurred that if I can make some kind of deal with T & T we'll go that route," said Hewett. Aldermen authorized the town's sewer system engineer, Finley Boney & Assoc., to apply for state Clean Water Bond funds to cover 50 percent of the purchase of an influent meter, the seeding/planting of coastal Bermuda grass at the sewer plant and sprinkler installation. The mayor will also ask if the 50 percent matching funds could be used for other projects, such as adding collection lines, improving the lift station or reducing impact fees.

Branch President Nolan Galloway wrote the town seeking clarification of "confusion" over the size of line to be installed, noting that an estimate provided the church covered upgrading of the line as well as extending it. Mayor Hewett said Galloway had been asked to forward the check so that a public presentation could be arranged and work could begin.
