Chairman Clifford advised the committee the meeting was called for the purpose of discussing and making recommendations on Lamar County Water Supply District's request for a tap on the 33 inch transmission line between the Water Treatment Plant and Campbell Soup. The Committee discussed the four points that the Lamar County Water Supply District were in favor of, those being read by City Attorney Haynes. After further discussion, the Committee was in agreement with the four points which includes the granting the right to Lamar County Water Supply District to tap on the 33 inch transmission line between the Water Treatment Plant and Campbell Soup with Lamar County Water Supply District paying a proportionate part of the capital cost based upon its taking through this tap as compared to the remainder of the flow through the 33 inch transmission line. The City has the right to oversize at its expense and to purchase for $1.00 that portion of the N. W. Loop from 33 inch transmission main to the West boundary line of 19th Street N. W. Chairman Clifford called for discussion and recommendation for purchase of Lamar County Water Supply District's water line on Highway 82 East. Earl Smith, City Engineer reported that on Highway 82 East where you pick up where the master meter is, going East to the city limits, the cost to purchase that line would be approximately $18,487.00 without depreciation, this does not include moving the master meter and box. Mr. Smith said the Lamar County Water Supply District has the right to stay connected with that water line per the contract with the City, and suggested that the city purchase the line up to the Booster Pump Station. City Attorney Haynes said the contract between the City and Lamar County Water Supply District provides that the City can purchase water lines from Lamar County Water Supply District, and the water lines on Highway 82 E. was constructed to meet city specifications, and further stated that the City's contract does not provide for the City of Paris to purchase customers from Lamar County Water Supply District. After further discussion, it was the consensus of the Committee for the City to send Lamar County Water Supply District a check for the water line on Highway 82 East according to contract, and notify them that the City is in agreement with the four points.
