THAT CAUSES THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE EXISTING STATIONS WITH SOME MODIFICATION WILL MEET THE REQUIREMENT. ENGINEER JOHN ROBBINS COMMENTED THAT IF THE COUNTY WISHED TO USE THE EXISTING WET WELL TO TIE INTO VERO BEACH, THERE ARE SOME OTHER ALTERNATIVES THAT NEED TO BE CHECKED. COMMISSIONER LYONS FELT THAT WE REALLY CAN'T EXPECT HARBOUR ISLAND TO FIX THE WHOLE SYSTEM UP TO GO TO VERO BEACH, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WE DO NEED A NEW LIFT STATION BECAUSE OF HARBOUR ISLAND, COMMISSIONER LOY ASKED WHAT IT WOULD COST US TO TAKE WHAT WE HAVE GOT AND SEND THE SEWAGE TO VERO BEACH AND WHAT WOULD IT COST IF HARBOUR ISLAND WERE A PART OF IT. THE BOARD AGREED THAT IS THE INFORMATION THAT IS NEEDED, AND ENGINEER ROBBINS STATED HE COULD FIGURE THAT OUT FOR THE BOARD. ATTORNEY O'HAIRE FELT THE BOARD SHOULDN'T TELL HIM PRO RATA WHEN THEY ACTUALLY MEAN IMPACT FEES, AND CHAIRMAN SIEBERT STATED THAT HE DID NOT BELIEVE THE BOARD EVER MEANT TO GO BACK AND ASSESS EVERY- BODY ON THIS AND THAT THE MINUTES FROM THREE PREVIOUS MEETINGS INDICATE THAT WAS NEVER THE INTENT. MR. O'HAIRE SAID HIS FEELING WAS THAT THE COUNTY WAS BITING THE BULLET FOR THAT DIFFERENCE. COMMISSIONER WODTKE EXPLAINED THAT THE BOARD SAID THERE IS PART OF THIS WORK THE COUNTY HAS THE CAPABILITY OF DOING, BUT THERE IS OTHER WORK THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM WE HAVE TO ADDRESS, AND WE HAVE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION OF HOW IT IS TO BE FUNDED. HE CONTINUED THAT WE GET IN TROUBLE WHEN WE THROW OUT "HIP SHOTS" ON DOLLARS AND CENTS AND WE NEED ACTUAL FIGURES FOR THE BOARD TO CONSIDER ALL ANGLES AND WORK THIS OUT. JOHN ROBBINS RECOMMENDED THAT THE BOARD PROCEED IMMEDIATELY TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS AND PLAN ON OPENING THEM AT THE SECOND MEETING IN APRIL. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT ASKED IF ATTORNEY O'HAIRE UNDERSTOOD WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED, AND MR, O'HAIRE BELIEVED THE ENGINEER IS BEING DIRECTED TO COME BACK WITH.PEFINITE FIGURES. 0 MAR 1918Q _PAF 90
