Mayor Swenson reported on a SPRING WATER Municipal League School which CONNECTIONS William Devey, Jim Holley and will be held in Provo, on March Charles Adams, representative of Alpine City, were present to discuss the application for water connections from the water line in the vicinity of School-houSprings. Inasmuch as Alpine City owns one sixth of the water, the City Council had contacted them in regard to the matter. In response to Mr. Devey's query as to the Lehi Council's attitude, Mayor Swenson stated that such connections, if made would establish a precedent which could hardly prove feasible in the future. After considerable discussion on this and other points, it was suggested that Alpine City make the connections if they could possibly do so. It was voted by the Lehi Council to disapprove the application for water from springs made by Mr. Christensen and Mr. Meyers. Don Peterson brought up the point that the ground water is 29. Representatives will be sent from Lehi City. The Mayor reported on his discussion with Glen Sagers concerning the need for sewer service to the homes below Highway 91 on 950 East. As this area is in the county, no action was taken by the council. It was agreed that a drain ditch dug on 700 East is too wide. Soil will be returned to the property owners who had stated that they would repair the ditch. HYDRANT ON WATER LINE Councilman Innes discussed a request from the Countryside Egg Farm for a fire hydrant. It was pointed out that this is in the county and that the city could not install the hydrant but could only give permission for the hydrant to be installed on the city water line. Mr. Christofferson will be directed to contact the County Commission to see if they will assist. Councilman Innes proposed the purchase of a new truck with boom and bucket and digger for the Power Department, to replace the present truck. He will prepare specifications for the calling of bids. se Beautification Committee Sets Cleanup Dates date of April 13 has been set as through April Cleanup Week in Lehi, it was announced by George W.
