CHAIRMAN LYONS AGREED THAT WOULD GIVE EVERYONE THE OPPOR- TUNITY TO STUDY THESE REPORTS, BUT BELIEVED IT IS WELL TO BRING OUT SOME OF THE BASIC QUESTIONS HERE TODAY. THE CHAIRMAN STATED THAT IF COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK WOULD LIKE TO TAKE HIS PLACE IN THE MATTER OF THE FINAL WRAP UP OF THIS PROJECT AND AGREEMENT, HE WOULD BE GLAD TO ABDICATE HIS POSITION AND MOVE OVER FOR HIM.

COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK STATED THAT HE WOULD ACCEPT THE ATTORNEY COLLINS BROUGHT UP THE BASIC ALTERNATIVE PRESENTED OF THE COUNTY PROVIDING THE WATER TO THE SOUTH BEACH FROM THE COUNTY SYSTEM, AND WISHED TO HAVE SOME INDICATION OF THE BOARD'S ATTITUDE ABOUT THAT ALTERNATIVE. COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK NOTED THE CITY PRESENTLY HAS AN AGREEMENT WITH THE MOORINGS FOR SERVICE TO THAT AREA; HE QUESTIONED WHETHER THE MOORINGS WOULD WANT TO TRANSFER TO THE COUNTY BECAUSE HE BELIEVED THE COUNTY RATE STRUCTURE WOULD HAVE TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER. HE ALSO HAD QUESTIONS ABOUT ANOTHER TRANSMISSION LINE ACROSS THE RIVER BECAUSE OF THE AQUATIC PRESERVE AND FELT THE COST FIGURES MIGHT BE LOW. MAR 111981 41 Box 46 FAGE 41
