the production Planning and
Control Division, discovered an
error in a report. The depot was
being overcharged for 24 steel
cage bearings which are used for
product improvements of the CH-
47 transmissions. When the over-
charge was discovered, Iftner-
Schlieper was instrumental in
getting the erroneous charges
credited back tot he CH-47 prog-
their demand will be that the
amount of water that should have
been released on each of four
years be released now to restore
conditions in the bay in which
white shrimp can breed.
Warren said bay shrimpers are
fighting for survival, and for this
both short-term and long-term
assistance is necessary.
Spokesmen for the industry, J.
P. and Erma Patton, who own Pat-
ton Seafood Co., had called upon
ram, bringing the program back
within authorized funding limits
and saving the depot 5104,700.

Logistics Center and has been
adapted for use at the depot. All

Sen. Carlos Truan, asking for
short range help to tide the bay
fishermen and shrimpers over
financially and long range help in
getting fresh water releases into
the bay.
The Monday meeting resulted
and was held in the community
room of Coastal National Bank. It
was attended, by Vick Hines of
the senator’s office, State Repre-
sentative Robert Earley, and rep-
resentatives of the federal Small
Business Administration and
Game and Pish Commission and
the State Marine Service.
Some of the data which is being
used to document the serious-
ness of the situation came out of a
day-long meeting on water re-
sources held at Kingville more
than a month ago. It was said in

ment and Hasket replied that ab-
out 20 years ago the city council
had agreed to allow the residents
in that area to fence the ease-
ment. When asked if that was
binding on this council, HaSkett
said the did not think so but would
check into it.
Pratt’s report indicated that he
had fouhd only one legitimate
complaint where the reading
shown on the customers utility
bill was 17,000of water over what
the meter registered. This was a
case, he wrote, of the reading
being entered into the computer
incorrectly. '
The report was largely devoted
to recommendations for the fu-
ture in regard to growth and prob-
lems that would be faced due to
the present routes of the meter
readers. “Other things that
should be done to enhance the
City.

large appliances and things like
that. Then there is the toll free
number for large limbs and other
things."
Haas responded, “Maybe we
(the city) should not be in the
garbarge business. Maybe we
should just say ‘clean up or face us
in oourt”
Other citizens in the audience
stated that they felt it was unfair
to increase the bills, of those who
do not pile trash to pay for remov-
readingof the meters,” he said, “is
that the route books should show
the serial number, the size of the
meter,the date installed and the
location of the meter. I realize
that the employees have been
reading these meters for from
eight to 18 years and know the
location for each house. In the
future, there could be new meter
readers who could not find the
meters and to which house the
meter belongs. Also I found a
number of concrete meter boxes
that should be replaced."
Pratt suggested that as the city
grows, the council could look at
hiring senior citizens, who are
physically able, to read the
meters by contract and paid by
the meter. “This would make it
possible,” he added, “to read the
meters in one day or one week.
This could help supplement their
income and maybe citizens
would have more confidence in
al of the trash piled up by others.
None of the council members
disagreed, with them, but the
council then, on a motion made
by Haas and seconded by Voss,
unanimously approved the eight
percent increase for that pur-
pose.
In other city business the coun-
cil adopted two ordinances that
are necessary in order for the city
to supply water and sewer service
to Naval Station Ingleside and
under programs such as the Army
Suggestion Program, Value En-
gineering or Quality Circles. Sav-
ings can be accumulated from
many small initiatives or from a
single large project.
The requirements are that the
total savings at least equal the
employee’s annual salary and
that the cited savings are realized
during a single 12 month period.
their meters being read.”
Pratt noted that as the city
grows the sewer and street em-
ployees could be transfered from
meter reading to other jobs as
needed.
He also noted that he found a
large portion of the city where
there had been two water lines
laid for the same area, with one
line being in the alley and one line
on the front of the right-of-way.
Meters for some of the houses
were in the alley and some on the
street. All of these meters could
have been placed on the line lo-
cated in the alley and would have
saved the city a lot of money.
When lines have to be replaced,
this should be corrected.” He
attached a drawing for further in-
formation and explanation.
approved resolution that allows
Ingleside city employees and
council members to join the
Reynolds Sherwin Federal Credit
Union.
In executive session the coun-
cil unanimously agreed to appeal
the recent oourt decision in the
lawsuit that former Ingleside
police officer Walter Winkle filed
against die city. The court deci-
sion, handed down recently
awarded Winkle approximately
585,000 in damages.
