Action included a request for a draft resolution to amend the present water policy and the signing of a owner Those involved in the discussion agreed a contract should be given to the property owner to eliminate confusion as to when does actual ownership of the water transfer from the owner to thecity Yet to be resolved also, is whether ownership should transfer at annexation or at the time of development. The consensus is that it should be transferred at contract with the county for fire protection. An ordinancewill also be drawn allowing bidding of special improvement District 17 and adoption of an annexation policy declaration Whether the water and general annexation policies, both long runningissues, will actually be brought to conclusion will only be seen then aidieaation and ihe owner is granted the use and privilege of paying taxesonit until he decides to develop the property Acquisition of unused water shares, how Attorney Strong was also instructed to and when they should be obtained remained the mainissueof discussion. All concurred the city should gain ownership of irrigation water oncelandis developed. Final wordonthe issue was a motion for thecity attorney to draw upa resolution to be studied during the Jan. 15 meeting City Attorney Don Strong said the sixacre foot per acre share now required was not a valid number of feet. Strong suggested that water used on the property within the last 10 years ora lesser amount . be required He added that because of problemswith people trying to purchase shares, they should be allowed to pay moneyin lieu of the water Teddy Seel, city zoning administrator, agreed money should be acceptable, but that there was no wayto validate how much water had been used on the land. Ownershipof the wateris in the property owner's name and doesnot necessarily go with the property. He said there wasn't any wayto tie the prepare an ordinance for the next council tneeting regarding Improvement District 17. Councilman Edward T.

Don’t Ignore Danger Signs; Good Brakes No Accident, Says Expert squeals and scrunches. They try to rememberto leavea little extra stopping distance. Brakesrarely fail all at once but continually deteriorate. If you have noticed, and ignored, a brake problem, it would be wise to have it checked immediately. Evenif your brakes and brake pedal seem quite normalto you, they should be checked every 10,000 miles. You'll Probably save money and maybe yourlife. When you do take yourcarin forits brake check-up, you might be told you need new brake shoes or that the wheel cylinders are leaking. Walt Alley of the Midas Institute of Technology (MIT) says these are common CHICAGO — You're calmly driving along whenthecarin front suddenlystops. You hit your brakesin plenty oftime... but it’s too late! Not only have you smashed into the car in front, but you've also rammed the carin the next lane. This accident might not have been avoided on slippery road. However, traffic records show a large numberofaccideitts result from mechanicalfailure, particularly faulty brakes. | Drivers too often ignore the warning signs of brakefailure adjusting their driving to the problem. As the brake pedal goes lower or gets soft, drivers will step harder or pump the pedal. They learn to live with brake brake problems,but he warns, ‘‘Don’t settle for a low price brake job. That usually covers only brake shoes. “There are many parts in a typical brake system that depend upon each other and haveto be replaced orrebuilt to make the brakes workproperly. “Makesure you get a complete inspection and that all worn parts are repaired or replaced. A complete brake job may cost less in the long run because it will give safer, more trouble-free miles of driving. “You should also get a warranty on at least the shoes or pads for 40,000 miles,”’ Alley states. Electronic Switching of Phones Goes Remote; Rural Areas Will Benefit Custom calling telephone service 9 tions provided via local electronic switching systemswill become possible in rural communities because of a new remote switching system designedby Bell Laboratories. The new system, called the 10A Remote Switching System (RSS), consists of a local switching unit controlled by a host electronic switching system up to 175 miles away. By using the host's call-processing power,RSS can provide cush custom calling features as call forwarding and three- way calling. The system is made economically practical by microprocessor and microelectronic technology advanced at Bell Labs. The benefits of electronic switching were previously available only in larger towns, suburbs and cities. Now, RSS makes it economically feasible to bring these benefits to areas where individual electronic switchers are less practical. RSSwill alse provide access to services not available in some older rural switching offices. These include TouchTone dialing, faster handling of operator- assisted calls, and ce ain business communication services. The first RSS was cut into service in Clarksville, N.Y., by the New York Telephone Company on Dec.8. It is controlled by the No. 1 ESS office in the Albany suburb of Guilderland, 15 miles away. Systems engineers at Bell Labs estimate that RSS units will be installed at the rate of about 100 per year. Mostwill go to work in manyof the Bell System's nearly 4000 rural community dialoffices.
