ATTORNEY COLLINS AGREED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN STRONG ARGUMENTS <br />PRESENTED, BUT REITERATED THAT IF THE BOARD SHOULD TAKE THE ACTION NOW <br />WITHOUT THE SPECIAL LEGISLATION IN QUESTION, THE HOUSING AUTHORITY COULD <br />PROCEED WITHOUT THE GUIDANCE OF THE SPECIAL ACT. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT DISCUSSED HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING SOONER <br />BUT NOT REACHING THE DECISION UNTIL AFTER THE SPECIAL ACT HAS BEEN <br />PASSED. HE COMMENTED TO MR. LUNDY THAT THE CHANCES OF A HOUSING AUTHORITY <br />BEING CREATED ARE MUCH BETTER AFTER'PASSAGE OF THE ACT THAN BEFORE. • <br />ATTORNEY COLLINS POINTED OUT THAT THE BOARD ACTUALLY DOES NOT <br />HAVE TO HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING AT ALL, BUT THEY HAVE ESTABLISHED THAT <br />THEY WILL. HE NOTED THAT A PUBLIC HEARING COULD BE HELD BEFORE THE <br />EFFECTIVE DATE OF .JULY 1ST, BUT HE DID NOT SEE ANY ADVANTAGE IN IT.. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT AGREED IT PROBABLY WOULD NOT SAVE ANY TIME <br />AND MIGHT EVEN CREATE THE NECESSITY OF HAVING AN ADDITIONAL HEARING. <br />AFTER FURTHER DISCUSSION, IT WAS AGREED TO SET 7:00 P.M. <br />TUESDAY, .JULY 17TH, FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE NEED FOR A HOUSING <br />AUTHORITY. <br />MR. LUNDY THEN•WENT ON TO DISCUSS A COLLECTOR STATION FOR THE <br />GIFFORD AREA, HE STATED THAT SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THE CIVIC LEAGUE ASKED <br />FOR A COLLECTOR STATION IN THE GIFFORD AREA. PRIOR TO THAT TIME, THEY <br />WERE IN CONTACT WITH THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR`S OFFICE AND MADE A <br />SIMILAR REQUEST. HE COMMENTED THAT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR A DUMPING <br />STATION, AND IT IS GETTING TO A POINT WHERE THEY ARE GETTING LITTLE HOME- <br />MADE DUMP STATIONS ALL AROUND, AND PEOPLE HAVE EVEN BEEN DUMPING AT THE <br />GIFFORD PARK. HE FELT THAT IT IS REGRETTABLE THAT SO MUCH TIME AND <br />EFFORT WAS SPENT TRYING TO DEVELOP A FINE RECREATION SITE FOR THE - <br />COMMUNITY ONLY TO HAVE PEOPLE USE IT FOR A DUMP. HE FELT IF THEY COULD <br />HAVE A DUMP STATION IN THE AREA, IT WOULD ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO GO THERE <br />RATHER THAN MAKING A DUMP OF THEIR OWN. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT FELT MR. LUNDY DID NOT HAVE TO PROVE THE <br />NEED FOR A DUMP SITE IN GIFFORD. <br />COMMISSIONER LOY AGREED THAT THE BOARD IS VERY MUCH AWARE OF <br />THE PROBLEM.
