'� t � I CT'i'Y hIt\NAGI3R'3 RI4PI RT Engineering crews are now in the city preparing data for the sewer system. I believe that work is proceeding according to schedule. Mr.. Westbrook is proceeding with plans and specifications for a new source of water supply. However, before a site for the well is definitely decided all available information is being gathered. A series of water samples from the grove irrigation well is being furnished the State Health Department this week and Mr. Knochemus, U. S. Geologist will be here this week also. I have previously furnished you with my recommendations for financing this project. You have also received my report on the findings and recommendation from the State Road Department with regards to our request for a reduction in the speed limit on Highway "50". While it was not mentioned in their letter to me, I am of the opinion that .t tney would like to do is to increase the present 35 miles per hour area to 40 miles per hour and reduce the speed from 65 to 55 miles per hour on the approach to the city on the west side. Any sign, or signs, which you wish to install will be at the expense of the city and of a type, size and location authorized by the Road Department. Most of the work by city crews has been devoted to hauling trash since the storm. toe should get most of the debris moved this week and get back to a normal schedule. We will have the construction work on East Minneola Avenue completed with in a few days and then move ov er to the repair work on highlands. We will have the Chestnut street cleared o f trees sometime this week or next and should right-of-way � be able to start work on the construction of the paving the last part of this month. The grading of the MacDonald property should be completed this week and I will then try to get the clay hauled which the County Commission- ers promised us. The removal of old cars and other such junk continues slowly but surely. In most cases we have but little if any trouble in enforcing the ordinances. In some rare cases we do and in such instances I expect to have your full "backing" as the enforcement is my responsibility. Notices will be mailed the last of this month requiring property owners to mow and clean their property. This, again, is according to a local ordinance. Within the next few days I will present to you my proposed and recommended budgets for the next fiscal year. I resp?Q�tfully request that you give the budget your early consideration. Naturally, it is my hope that you will adopt the budget, as presented, without change. However, if changes are to be made I request that they be made without undue delay. I would like to have a budget (at least tentative) as soon as possible in order that I may plan according, Respe,pt-4killy submitted,
