ITEM N0. 1 - Briefing on Storage and Controls for the City
Water System.
A briefing on the present water system was presented by Ted Rowe.
Eddie Cheatham, Mike Monroe and Joel Anderson briefed on proposed
changes to metering and control devices of the present system and
installation of new metering and control devices for the new well,
pump station and ground storage tank. Many of the old components
are worn or corroded and need to be replaced. The proposal is to
make all replacement and new components compatible, digital units
to eliminate future change-over costs and to create a new water
system control capability for monitoring and control of all
components. Use of digital components will allow connection to a
computer in the future. Council then visited each water well,
storage, and pump station site. Terry Highfill briefed on
realignment of water lines at the Crestview Pump Station so as to
bypass the 30,000 gallon underground storage tank and allow use

of the two booster pumps as alternating water distribution and
pressure units. At the new well site, behind Harris Graphics,

development of the well to be complete by February 10, 1990 and
for construction of the pump station and ground storage tank to
begin shortly thereafter.

Control and Budget Amendment.
Motion by Mark Wright, second by Bill Abbott to approve the
