■I 144 that on March 19, 1956, the Council turned down Iatr. Hunts request for a water meter on this same property. Water Superintendent Winter was of the opinion that if this matter was checked with the Health Department they would find that the building permit seas granted with the understanding that they would have to get by with the well. The first permit was granted by the Health Department in March, 1953, and when the well went dry the City Council, on July 13, 1953, approved the present water meter be- cause it was a hardship case. In December of 1954, Mr. Hunt built the second house, and it was the . y opinion of Mr. Winter that the Health Department told Mr. Hunt that he would have to depend on the well for his water. This is the same property that Mr. Hunt threatened to take to court if he hasn't given a water meter. Councilman Britschgi moved that the request be denied, seconded by Councilman Granger. City Attorney Currie asked that it be noted that at the time that this request is before the Council that these people are only considering the purchase +of the property and have not completed the sale. a The motion carried because this was not considered a hardship case.
