Board Members reviewed the 1968-69 Audit report page by page with Mr.
J. S. Plourde, C.P.A., who prepared the report.
MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Member Mitchell stated that during the election campaign individual
things came up that indicated areas where the District's public relations
could be improved, particularly the manner in which Local Improvement District
proceedings are handled.
After discussion, the Board Members suggested that, rather than proceed-
ing with engineering for Local Improvement Districts when an area has more
than 60% petitions (many signatures being from former owners and many several
years old), an informal hearing be held so as to fully inform those to be
included in the assessment district prior to going ahead with the proceed-
ings and engineering.
Mr. Horstkotte, General Manager-Chief Engineer, presented a list of
13 questions commonly asked about Local Improvement Districts, along with
the answers.
Other areas discussed were:
Relationship with contractors;
Statements relative to pollution control problems;
Paying interest on certain deposits with the District;
Voluntary return of property owner's $50.00 cash deposit on com-
pletion of sewer installation rather than a waiting period and
request for return (Code change);
Investigate private disposal systems in cooperation with the Health
Department and manufacturers for use in high cost and remote areas
such as the recent Brown Avenue, Lafayette, and Canyon area problems;
Need for professional public relations service and informational
literature; and
Secondary treatment and infiltration and sewer line maintenance.
