1he board discussed ;d length the
problem faced by renters leaving
water bills unpaid, after bavins
water turned on in their name. Town
Attorney Klva Jess said that,
although the town's water ordinance
requires people turning on waU r service
to pay a J Hi deposit, many were
coining into the office, leaving a
notice to turn on water, but failing to
pay the deposit. "Then they leave
before getting their water bill and the
town is getting stuck with a lot of
them." she said.
The board approved a $45 refundable
deposit to be made at the time
service is requested, plus a $5 service
charge for changing the name. It also
voted to charge $10 for disconnecting
or re-connecting service.

The board discussed its concerns
over trash pickup with Steve MeC'arty,
marketing manager for
Chambers Co., which began pro

May.
There had been dissatisfaction
with the unslightly appearance of the
streets when renters or property
owners failed to return trash carts to
their original positions after they
were emptied. The town board requested
that Chambers replace the
carts, and was told there would be an
additional charge of $10,000 per year
for that service.

now you want us to go beyond it in
regard to the carts."
Bullinglon said she didn't consider
they had done more than fulfill the
contract in cleaning up litter along
the road. "We thought roadside
pickup meant walking along the
road, cleaning up litter, even things
that blow away into a fence," she explained.
Fox added. "We talked about this
in great detail when we signed the
contract, about our problem areas
that we wanted cleaned."
McCarthy said, "Service is all we
have to sell. We want to please you."
Commissioners Fox and Terry
Barbee will meet with him to work
out a compromise on the problems.

Fox asked that the building inspector
inform property owners about
their responsibilities in regard to the
new sewer system. She and Barbie
both noted that there is
misunderstanding about who connects
the house to the system.
Roberson said, "The $900 tap-on
fee pays only for a pipe bringing the
sewer line to within a foot of the property
line. The property owner is
responsible for having a line run
from the house to that tapon."
Gurganus asked that the board
consider liability insurance for police
officers. He said the present
coverage for the board costs $649 per
year, and additional coverage for all
employes would mean an increase of
$226 per year. The board voted to buy
the insurance pending apprc.va! by
the town attorney.
The building inspector reported
nine building permits issued during
August, with a collection of SI.310 in
fees for construction valued at
