The matter of an ambulance to be stationed in, and
operating from, Clermont was discussed. It was the consensus

Funeral Home to extend their service. The matter was referred
to Mr. Jay Vandermeer, with the suggestion that he contact Mr.
Kurfiss regarding the matter.
The possibility of locating a trailer court in Clermont
was discussed and it appeared that the principal obstacle to
