Boiling Springs water was the main
subject at the town council’s Sept. 29
meeting, as council approved fluoridating
the water supply, taking bids on connecting
a new weii, and repairing old water meters.
Council agreed, and authorized taking the
low bid on a pump.

Fluoridation was approved after council
heard Dr. Bruce Hawkins, regional dental
consultant from the N.C. Division of Health
Services, explain a grant of federal money
available to the town through the state
division. That grant, according to Hawkins,
would pay the costs of purchasing
fluoridation equipment, installing it, and
keeping it in chemicals for one year.
Problems with broken water meters then
came up, as Don Lovelace pointed out that
about 40 of the town’s 600 meters-
6%-need repair. Thursdays were designa
ted repair days.
In other action the councii-
“Once the equipment is installed, it
belongs to you,” Hawkins told the council.
‘‘If you decide you don’t want it you can
take it out,” he said, with no specific
obligation by the town.
was told by councilman John Washburn
that Boiling Springs for a second year has
won a Community of Excelence Award.
Washburn and Mayor Jimmy Greene will
travel to Raleigh to accept the award Oct.
27.
agreed to meet on the second Tuesday in
November, so as not to conflict with election
on the first Tuesday, Nov. 3.
Hawkins estimated approval of the grant
by Health Services should take 5 to 6
months.
postponed until that November meeting
action on buying a new police car.
At that point, when the oouncii turned to
discussing driiling a new well, councilman
Max Hamrick noticed the board had
overlooked taking bids on a pump to raise
the water.
‘‘There’re really three parts to this job,”
Hamrick told the council. “The first is
drilling the well; the second is getting a
pump to get the water out; and the third is
getting the water to the plant.”
recognized Ed Abdow, a local manufac
turer, who questioned council about the
accountability of money budgeted for
salaries of three vacant police jobs. Abdow
criticized the town’s poiice protection and
council’s not filling the jobs:
‘‘We have places for three men that are
just stagnant now,” he said.
Mayor Greene offered to talk with Abdow
in a closed session. Abdow declined.
Greene and the council then went into a
closed session that lasted shortly over an
hour.
