004 KARL KIELHOFER:
Chairman read letter directed to the Board written by Mr. Kielhofer on
July 16th, 1968, ,asking_to meet with;-_the Board of Directors. Mr.
Kielhofer stated he owns the building which is full of people. He
stated that in the District files on August 9th the District should
shut off services on August 9th per Mr. Kielhofer's letter to Mr. Longo.
He stated he received a notice from the California Safety Inspector that
there is a deadline date of August the 9th to make improvements on the
electric facilities in the Rex Hotel. He stated he was advised him that
there would be no problem in shutting down the facilities and giving notice
to his renters that they will vacate August the 9th. He stated }e owes
an apology to the District as he thought that the District had something
to do with the examination of his establishment. He stated since he has
had an investigation and found that the District had nothing to do with the
examination held by the Inspector. He stated that a year ago he discussed
the legality of the wiring and a minimum adjustment was made to the wiring
leading into the building and therefore he thought it was legal, until
he received the notice of the California Industrial Inspector calling for
repairs amounting to a great amount of money to be spent. Chairman stated
that the Distiict does not like to see a vacant building in the town of
Truckee but it is Mr.kKielhofers perogative as owner to handle the situ-
ation as he wishes. Mr. Kielhofer stated that he owns some three lots in
the Donner Lake area on which is a telephone pole with 14 wires in all
strung from it. He stated he discussed that matter with Mr. Longo and
Mr. Longo called Mr. Sanders and Mr. Sanders referred him to-Mr. Farris
of Tahoe City. Mr. Kielhofer stated that there has been nothing done
about removing these wires which are an obstruction to his view as yet,
Manager stated he would investigate further and contact Mr. Sanders on
the matter.
RADIO STATION:
Manager stated that Mr, Crenshaw appears before the Beard in order to
discuss the advertising through the radio station. Manager stated that
in a previous agreement with the Eastern Broadcasting Company the District
advertized at a cost of $75.00 per month. He stated at the present time
finances are not allocated for adverti z ing at this time. Mr. Crenshaw
stated to Manager that he would like to make a proposal at this time as
to the type of advertizing and the cost, Mr. Crenshaw stated that he
could propose a five minute time period as before but he feels it would
be a benefit to the District to have public service announcements through
the period of a day sponsered by the District which would be 30 second
or 1 minute announcements. He stated the public service announcements
would be given at any rate at an average of approximately $107.00 per
i
month. Director Waters stated that he feels the District is not financially
able to handle anything of this nature at this time. Manager stated it
is the idea of the Board to pospone the matter. Chairman stated that
he feels at this time the matter is to be tabled until such time as the
Board feels that they should proceed as they feel that the advertising was
very successful when used previously. Matter tabled.
350 OPEN TIME FOR WATER RATE COMMENT BY INTERESTED PARTIES
Director Firpo stated that the facilities fees should be charged to the
developer. Director Moore agreed stating that if the fees are charged
directly to the customer there would be no finances to allow for storage,
Director Moore stated that the applicant referred to in the Ordinance
will have to be defined more clearly before the end of thirty days as
to being the developer or the customer. He stated this is the option
the Board may decide upon. Director Moore asked for information as to
what the advamce revenue for. Manager stated it is mainly for construction
of more tanks, construction of larger transmission mains, and to build a
line out to Doner Lake in order to get greater quantities of water then
is presently available to the District. Manager stated the reason for
acquiring water from Donner Lake is that the present supply of water before
too long will or can become inadequate. Director Rose stated that what
is being considered is asking for the developer to pay several thousand
dollars for water that they wont be needing for several years in advance.
Manager stated in the case of Mr. Irmer of Sierra Meadows he has agreed
to put storage in to suffice that particular area in the next 12 months,
but there has been no arrangments made as to source to supply that
particular storage. Manager stated that the facilities fees are to
provide for source. Brien Walters stated the facilities fees at 30
new connections per year would bring roughly $3,000.00 annually, He
stated the rate increase would provide for most of the transmission,etc.
He stated in his figure of $21,500 the facilities fees are included, the
connection fees are not Chairman asked for the opinion of the Board.
He stated in his opinion the party asking for the connection should pay
the costs for storage, transmission, etc. Director Moore stated he
thinks that preparing water to serve this development is just as important
as clearing a lot. Brien Walters stated the matter of deciding who should
pay costs is a political problem not an engineering matter. Chairman stated
that he will suspend the matter at this time, untilafter discussion of other
matter on the agenda,
BRIEN WALTERS - FINANCING
Manager read a letter on EDA Preapplication conference water report.
Manager stated that has been a meeting called on the O.E.D. report and
he plans on attending, Brien Walters stated that with the grant and
the rate increase this would supply enough money to take care of the
entire system in the future. He stated that with a grant there would
be no payment for 10 years and the District charging the rate increase
would have the needed 20% by that time thattis necessary-to repay the
loan.
Board discussed the increased minimums based on meter size, _
Director Rose stated that it is his thought that the facilities fees
cover source and storage. He stated that after the developer se&ls out
his lots and is out of business there would be no provision for both
source and storage. He stated that he feels source and storage do not
cost $100.00 per lot. He feels it is unfair to charge the developer for
the facilities fee in- advance of $100.00 a lot then turn around and charge
for his storage, or he has to supply storage, Director Moore agreed,
Manager was authorized by the Board to contact Mr, Chamberlain for the
proper terminology to amend Ordinance #68-s05 section 4.3 and 4.3D.
Matter to be brought up at the next regular meeting.

May 10, 1960, to a strip of land of almost an acre. Manager stated when
the freeway was built the District gave the State of California a blank
easment over this land. The blanket easement was never released by the
DistHct and and Joseph is going to sell the land. Manager read the

BRIEN WALTERS:
Directors discussed finances in regards to Walers Engineering bill,
Manager stated that if the District obligates themselves by authorizing
more work by Walters Engineeringat this time would the District be in
financial dificulty, He asked Mr. Walters if it would propose a problem
by suspending the work that Brien Walters is going to do until such time
as the Board feels that the finances would permit. Brien Walters answered
it would as the District is going to the EDA financing application and
it is part of the Master Plan to do this, He stated the next phase would
to be to get a draft in the Boards hands and the engineerng work would
be mostly done, the only other thing would beto get a published report
and the engineering wourk would be done, He stated that most of the
money that the District obligated themselves for in the engineering field
is spend and the District has an option as to how they want to pay it,
Manager stated that the District has put into the water system 56,000
dollars up to this time. Brien Walters stated that at the meeting he
