1 felt that the Chamber should
have a comprehensive report be
fore going on record as approv
ing the move. The Rev. Victor
Alfsen made a motion that was
carried “that tjie Chamber of
Commerce go on record as com
mending the businessmen in get
ting the matter of incorporation
before the people. James Hurley,
member of the Chamber, stated
that “the matter will be presented
to some competent judge and if
he decides the idea is worth
while, then it will be presented
to some competent voters for
final decision,” which should set
tle the long-drawn out question
of incorporation here.
The move for incorporation was
started here by the businessmen
as an outgrowth of a critical wat
er shortage, which not only creat
ed an emergency but which they
felt threatened the growth of the
community from a long - range
point of view.
A committee appointed at a
meeting of local surplus water
users on November 22, reported
their findings at a meeting called
by the businessmen last week.
Their report is given here as fol
lows:
1. Accordin'" to facts now avail
able, the present surplus water
supply appears adequate to meet
essential minimum needs of the
community. Because of dry
weather, supply is expected to
remain short until next summer’s
rains replenish ground water
tables. By that time, however,
additional growth of the com
munity may prolong the emer
gency until a new system is oper
ating. For this reason the Com
mittee offers the following sug
gestions for the guidance of all
surplus water users:
(a) That no more extensions to
the present water system be
serviced until the supply has been

] replenished by rainfall or by con
struction designed to collect more
water at the source.
(b) That the MVFCA be en
couraged to install a pump at the
head of the present supply line.
This pump is expected to increase
the capacity of the water line,
thus furnishing more surplus
water for the community.
(c) That an adequate supply of
water for fire fighting be given
priority over general use. In
other words, the community de
sires a full water tank for fire
fighting.
(d) That when, in the judgment
of the MVFCA, it becomes neces
sary to curtail service to surplus
water users, the curtailment be
extended equitably to all users
by periodic “shut-offs.”
(e) That surplus water users
make every effort to conserve
water supplies during the present
emergency. Repair leaky faucets.
Insulate plumbing where possible,
so that taps need not be left open
to prevent freezing of lines. Guard
against waste.
(f) Surplus water users who
might be adversely affected by a
shut off of more than nine hours
are urged to contact this commit
tee. Other users who find their
minimum water requirements are
not being filled are urged to j
bring such information to the
committee.
2. The MVFCA is unable to fi- j
nance any expansion of the pres-!
ent water system to increase sur- j
plus supplies, beyond installation !
| of the pump mentioned above.
3. The community of Palmer
! will have to take the initiative in
planning an expanded water sys
tem to meet future needs of the
town. This new system must be
financed by the community. The
committee recognizes the neces
sity of starting construction at an
early date, certainly no later than
next summer. Planning should
1 be done within the next three or
four months.
4. Until plans for a new system
can be devised and the system
placed in operation, water users
must encourage the MVFCA to
continue its present program of
selling surplus water. Coopera
tion will greatly assist in helping
the whole community through
the present emergency. If the sit- ■*
uation becomes more acute, tem
pory supply lines may be in
quired; cost of construction may
have to be shared by the surplus
water users.
The report was signed by the
five committee members, Allan H.
Mick, chairman. Matt Perkins, A1
Hagen, Ralph Moore and James
Hurley.
