which will be phased over the next
two years.
Wood said that also budgeted for
next year is $13,000 for develop-
ment of a 20-year master plan for
the Pilot Creek Wastewater
Treatment Facility. Chairman Al
Moretz said he favored the propos-
al to be done by W. K. Dickson
Company engineers also, but sug-
gested a land use map as the first
step in the process.
At the June 13 Council meeting
the committee will also recom-
mend that the city pay for electrical
upgrading of a transformer for
Southern Window Products which
expects to locate in the current
Cleveland Hosiery Building. The
cost is expected to run between
$10,000-$15,000. The plant will
employ 20.
The Utility Committee will also
~. recommend at the June 13 meeting
of City Council that Council autho-
rize W. K. Dickson Co. to prepare
preliminary cost estimates for sew-
er along Highway 216 to Grover
Road. The line would be paid for
by developers and Cleveland
County. Wood told the board that
Pioneer Bearing Company is locat-
ing on 10 acres and has requested
water and sewer from Kings
Mountain. Wood suggested, and
the board concurred, that the cost
estimate is needed for potential de-
velopment of the area. Just south of
the site is I-85 and the interchange
of Highway 216 and 29, an indus-
trial corridor. A 10,000 gallon per
- day pump station is being projected
for the site. "It may be short-sight-
ed to construct a small station and
that's why we need a potential cost

the whole picture,” he told the
board, which included Cpuncilmen
Moretz, Fred Finger and Humes
Houston.
Engineer Pond, who was present
for the meeting, said Mount Holly
recently completed hydraulic anal-
ysis and mapping which shows ev-
ery fire hydrant, valve,etc. owned
by the city and which he says pays
off. "When a line break comes in
the middle of the night you can go
back to your maps and models of
the system and know exactly where
to go and what to do," he said.
Pond said the mapping will identi-
fy deficiencies in the utility sys-
tems.
"Since the rate study is behind
us we need these additional studies
as building blocks for the future,"
said Wood.
"When a developer asks for the
location of water lines we can pin-
point them immediately and give
them maps," said Walt Ollis.
Responding to Moretz, Wood
said that nothing is in the upcom-
ing budget for a land use plan, not-
ing that one of the big jobs which
is upcoming is an overhauling of
the zoning and subdivision ordi-
nances. "Since they are legal in-
struments they need to be first
class and this is something we can't
do in-house.” Wood recommended

Utility Director Jimmy Maney
said the city received four propos-
als for ‘computers for meter read-
ers and is recommending the board
approve Radix Company which al-
so services the city of Shelby. "All
our city services can be keyed in
this one unit, replacing 34 books
our three meter readers carry out
everyday," he said. Each hand-held
unit serves 800 meters.The units
will loaded and unloaded in the
billing department at City Hall
where clerks will immediately be
able to flag problem meters. "We
spend a lot of time re-reading me-
ters and this new system will also
eliminate many administrative du-
ties because now we have to manu-
ally feed into a computer to print
the bills. This system will free up
the clerk who has been spending so
much time. A built-in clock in the
unit time stamps every meter that
is read, and in addition to accuracy,
will offer increased services.
Metermen will be able to cover
more meters in a day's time," said
Maney. The units are also water-
proofed and weatherized.
Maney said it will take about
a year for the system to be in place
but that once the meter readers
learn the new system they will use
no pencils and books on the routes
and enter into a computer informa-
tion on the city's 3800 water me-
ters.

| Pet Of The Week
Our precious pup this week is
Spike, a 6-month-old silver poodle
who belongs to David Major of
Kings Mountain.
Since Spike is only 6 months
old, we don't have too much to re-
port except that he is often in trou-
ble. He might me tiny, but he's
tough.
He loves to be held and cuddled
and seems so sweet an innocent but
when no one is looking, he is trou-
ble. David was away at a conven-
tion recently and when he went to
put on his dress shoes, noticed that
the tassles on both shoes were
missing. Guess who??? Spike also
loves to chew up telephone cords.
Watch out David, your furniture
may be next.
