1.  Meter Maintenance Bids Staff will have quotes prepared for the committee meeting.  Because this was a hot topic last year, staff suggests committee select two or three low bids, and ask the companies have a presentation to the board on the 11th for final selection.

2.  Fisher & Baysinger Domestic Well Concerns Baysinger attended last month’s board meeting with concerns about irrigation development near his domestic well.  Bob Fisher had well problems that were noted in last month’s staff report but he didn’t come to the meeting.  Mr. Fisher’s domestic well dried up due to groundwater declines requiring him to re-drill the well much further away from the farmstead.  He has submitted a bill for replacing his well and underground pipe.
