Absent: Barton
Staff Present: Chafin, Hansen, Hostmyer
The minutes from the 'regular meeting~of October 24, 1979, were
approved as presented.
The proposal of 'an Engineering firm to design a 2 million gallon
tank, booster station, and well site; as approved under the Ashe
Water Systems capital budget was presented to the board by Domestic
Water Superintendent John Hansen. Mr. Hansen stated that the Do-
mestic Water Department has requested from various engineering
firms proposals for the design of a 2 million gallon tank, booster
station, and well site. Five (5) firms indicated an interest in
the project of which a staff committee (cOnsisting of W. D. Higg-
inbot.ham, Financial; Ed Schultz, Public Works; and John Hansen
Development Services) selected the best two firms for the project.
These two firms were interviewed by the committee and Boyle Engi-
neering was selected as the number one choice. At this time Mr.
Bergen made a motion that the staff be authorized to proceed with
the contract negotiation, with' the consideration that the staff,
also, obtain a rate schedule from the two firms and come back to
the board with that presentation. The motion was passed.

ing of the Kern River and the Cross Valley Canal on the Gosford-
C6ffee Road facilities was presented to the board for consideration
and to make recommendations to the City Council at the meeting on
November 7, 1979. Mr. Hansen informed the board that this would
enable the Domestic Water to supply water on the north side of
the River. In the purchase agreement with Tenneco, the City is
obligated to 'provide water for lands on the north, slide of the
River. Mr. Hoagland made a motion that the agreement be taken to
the Council Meeting of November 7, 1979, for action. The motion
was passed.
A Draft Agreement for City acquistion of the Fairhaven Industrial
Fire Protection District was presented to~he board for consider-
ation. Mr. Bergen made a motion that the Agreement be received

BOOSTER STATION & WELL.
Our committee has reviewed proposals from five engineering firms for
services on the design of a two million gallon water storage tank, a booster
station, and well. We selected two qualified firms for a further interview.
Boyle Engineering Corporation and Bookman-Edmonston Engineering, Inc. made
a formal presentation to this committee covering their qualifications and
their concept of the proposed project.
At the boards request we have asked both firms to submit rate schedules.
After reviewing the rate schedules the committee has concluded that they are
basically equivalent.
After consider!ng both firms experiences, qualifications, rates, and
design concepts, this committee recommends that Boyle Engineering Corporation
be awarded the enclosed contract.
