PRESENT: Hons. Bridges, Chairman; Cheek, Co-Chairman; Colclough and
Mays, members; Jim Wall, Attorney; George Kolb, Administrator; Max Hicks, Utilities

Motion adopted unanimously.
Addendum Item 2. Delegation to appear before the Committee regarding sewer
problems on Broad Street. (Requested by Commissioner
Cheek)
I
At this time Mr. John Newman appeared before the Committee representing his
daughter, Cheryl Po latty, who owns the Old Wilkersons property on Broad Street. He
noted that they were having problems with the sewer and had to have it cleaned every
two to three months to remove roots in the line from the building to the street.
Mr. Hicks: The policy is that if the problem is between the main tap and the
right-of-way, it would be our responsibility. If it is between the right-of-way and the
business, then the owners would take care of it.
Mr. Beard: Perhaps Mr. Newman could get with Mr. Hicks on that and bring it
back.
Mr. Hicks: We would be glad to do that because then we can determine where
the property line is and where the roots are. Then we would know if policy should be
changed in this situation.
Mr. Chairman: We'll get a report back on that at the next meeling.
