I also strongly recommend a study of water tap rates, possible sewage charges, and higher permit fees; also that the minutes of the Board of Commissioners contain full in. formation in detail; also that any corrections to the original tax scroll be approved by the Board; and that large checks over a min imum amount be countersigned."
