BUT HAS BEEN WORKING WITH U.D.U. MANY YEARS TO ATTEMPT TO SOLVE THEIR <br />PROBLEMS AND AT NO TIME HAS ANYONE SAID.DEFINITELY HOW MANY RESIDENTS <br />THIS WATER WILL SERVE BECAUSE THE RECORDS AND FACILITIES ARE INADEQUATE <br />TO ACCURATELY DETERMINE THIS. HE CONTINUED THAT AFTER THE CONTEMPLATED <br />IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED, HE BELIEVES THERE WILL BE SOMEWHAT <br />MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR THE UNITS CONTEMPLATED, BUT THIS CAN ONLY BE <br />DETERMINED AFTER THE SYSTEM IS IMPROVED AND IN OPERATION. DR. SMITH <br />STATED THAT THE ONLY REASON D.E.R. IS NOT ALLOWING ANY ADDITIONAL PERMITS <br />NOW IS BECAUSE THE NEW SYSTEM IS NOT YET IN OPERATION. <br />CHAIRMAN SIEBERT INFORMED THE BOARD THAT HE HAD PURPOSELY LET <br />SO MANY PEOPLE SPEAK TO EMPHASIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER TO ALL CITIZENS <br />OF THE COUNTY. HE STATED THAT HE FEELS THE BOARD WILL BE SHORT-SIGHTED <br />IF THEY DO NOT GIVE IMMEDIATE CONSIDERATION TO THE PROBLEM OF WHERE OUR <br />FUTURE WATER IS GOING TO COME FROM, AND CONTINUED THAT HE DID NOT KNOW <br />IF PURCHASING FROM MUNICIPALITIES IS THE ANSWER AS HE FEELS IT SHOULD <br />BE A COUNTY FUNCTION TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE TO ALL RESIDENTS OF THE <br />COUNTY. <br />COMMISSIONER Loy STATED THAT IS OBVIOUS THERE IS NO ONE <br />SINGLE REQUEST THAT CAN BE HANDLED IMMEDIATELY AND NOTED THAT THERE WAS <br />ONE DOCTORS GROUP THE COUNTY AUTHORIZED TO GO TO THE CITY FOR A WATER <br />ALLOCATION, AND THEY WERE TURNED DOWN. SHE, THEREFORE, FEELS THAT WHAT <br />IS REQUIRED IS A MEETING OF THE MINDS AS TO HOW MUCH WATER WE HAVE LEFT <br />TO ALLOCATE EVEN IF WE HAVE TO GO TO COURT TO SETTLE IT. AFTER THIS IS <br />SETTLED, SHE FELT THE QUESTION OF WHERE OUR FUTURE WATER WILL COME FROM <br />IS BECOMING MORE IMPORTANT EVERY DAY. COMMISSIONER Loy AGREED THAT <br />THE NEED FOR AUXILIARY UNITS TO THE HOSPITAL TO PROVIDE BETTER SERVICE <br />IS A GENUINE NEED BUT NOTED THAT WE HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS IN THE <br />SOUTH END OF THE COUNTY REPRESENTING A PRIORITY IN ANOTHER AREA. SHE <br />STATED THAT WATER AT THIS TIME IS MUCH MORE PRECIOUS THAN IT WAS TWO <br />YEARS AGO, AND QUITE POSSIBLY THIS IS THE TIME FOR US TO GENUINELY <br />^-q-SIDER GETTING IN THE WATER BUSINESS FOR OURSELVES AS WE MUST HAVE THE <br />BEST INTERESTS OF ALL THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTY IN MIND. COMMISSIONER Loy <br />THEN RECOMMENDED A WORKSHOP MEETING BE UP TO CONSIDER HOW TO SOLVE <br />THE PROBLEM OF OUR FUTURE WATER SUPPLY <br />COMMISSIONER WODTKE DISCUSSED THE MATTER OF THE CITY OF VERO <br />32 <br />26 X23 <br />I <br />
