278 brought the Cost higher. He believed, however, that this job should.be done well In the beginning and asked that this matter be considered by the committee to be appointed to go into the whole matter of policy 1n the water depart- ment. Mr. Werder asked that a resolution be adopted by the Council so that there would be an official record of the agreement entered into by the Council to supply water to this district. The Council was in accord that this agreement had been made. Councilman Anderson offered resolution com- mitting the city to supply water to the Carson -Monckton Tract as the tract is developed. There was some discussion as to how the tract was to be built, it being the opinion of several of the councilmen that it was to be developed block by block. Mr.. Werder stated that it had not been agreed to build block by block but that it had been understood that there would be no scattered building and that it would be a comprehensive development. s r Councilman Granger was of the opinion that the agreement had been to bring the water line to the property line and extend the mains as construc- tion progressed. Councilman Anderson changed his resolution to read that the city would agree to extend the water mian to the Carson and Monckton j( Traot and extend the water lines as construction progresses, seconded by Councilman Yletcher. Motion passed unanimously. Under the question, Councilman Granger expressed the opinion that the tract would be treated under the same provisions as an individual water user. Mr. Werder agreed V .there was to be no spot building, that lots could not be held for specula- tive purposes but that it was definitely a building project. On roll call the resolution passed unanimously.
