I IHMOTA August 100 1944 Mrs, T. L. Todd. President, alms Village Council, 5404 Park, Mce, folty (10)_ Bear Ur. Todd: I an sorry that there has been a considerable delay in the prep oration of the data to show whether or not the net.revenue obtained from the operation of the 013m !later Utility as separate and distenet from the portion of the lower. system to which we, twa ,ownership. At this particuu? time _the delay could not well have boss avoided. turthermors the job is rather involved as an inspection of'the figures attached hereto will reveal* . the hater Company is asking that the'Villege pay for fire. protic- tion service on a basis which w112'not only repay it for extra operating wmenseo but.also to give a fair return on the investment in the portion of the water utility owned by Its While-it is believed-the proper basis for calculating the cost of fire protection to set forth in the formuiss used by.the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin. the Village has indicated that it would rather cons ,ider'the basis to be an overall fair return including revenue from domestic servicee At our, last aesting.we promised to minks a setup based on this theory. 2hese are not forth 'in Tables 1.2.3 and 40 Table I sets up three coltsms based on interpretat'lone of the opinion given, by the :;bats S s Court and also on the .use of depreciated, talus rather, than original cost ,as a Laois for fair returns Before the fA- veut of the Knew deals the tea States Supreme Court establi l ed for a. period of over 50 yec+rs that',the rate base for public utilities iCnould be' determined by consideration of historical cost, reproduction cost and du dent 'inree'tuent* The plan of •using depreciated value as a rate basis was not considered and indeed .could not, be if public utilities are to'- give good service and pay investors a fair return on their investmerte Some of the reasons are ;L) the investor never sees nor does he get any direct benefit from the depreciation Rued. None of his, investment is repaid from the de- preciation funds (2) utilitles'do not depreciate a piece of equipment until; it is removed from .servicee Its total cost installedp lose salvage value. is then charged against the depreciation reserve. A depreciation reserve is built W to a pol,,.t considered large enough to take care of estimated retirements for a 'reaeonable time in the future. This varies 'from 15 %" to 2�. of the cost of the prcT,- qty operated. While strait ,line usthods of calculatior► are often used in setting up depreciation, actual 'retirements follow aline similar in form to curve A - -Z shown in sketch. (full line) e . . 1, !}. Vra, To MAdt President -2d- Q J LL� .0 �y Ud 0 �a V W} a F J \ Augut 106 19 i TIME• IN KLEAR9 Acc=ulations of reserve from A to B should be sufficient to cover retirements between B wA Do VOU though the reserve is reinvested back into. the property the utility is responsible for r.eclacement of equip - ment retired, even though-this requires new'money from outside the utility's depreciation fuuio (3) If we assume that a property of say $100,040 orig- inal cost with an average life of _50 ors were considered, tha &wv al strait - line depreciation rata would be 2%, A'fair return ' a Meld the investor $605009 moose the depreciation feted of $2,000 fail the first year ,were reinvested -in the property, On the-theory thab depreciated valve should be the sate base the base would then be $91900o0 but the remaining life of the property in service is onlw slightly above 49- 7ears$ ,2he depreciation charge for the second ear would ,then be 2.04f., for the third year it would be only sligbtly over 4S years, or a depreciation rate of12o08%- Following this example through it would be discovered that -.the required extra allow- ance for depreciation would be exactly equivalent to the 61lowanee of 'the ' fair return on the ft,11 or1gl." -1 irvastment-of 5100,000 mid a 2% rate of .depreciation.. This is proven in books published. on Utility, appraisals, and is upheld by the chief engineer of - the ®isc "Isla Public $ait'vice Coamiasiono - Some goverbaent commissions have, however, in this time of political pressure agsiust public Utilities, used depreciated value instead, Of original cos; as a rate base in spite .of its proven economic faleityo 2�1e Minwapolis Gas yight,Co* L franchise uses the original, cost as In rate base, The argument is sometimes used ,that if depreciation funds and reinvested in new property that -earnings are hl&ar than fair by the rela,, tine a m=nt of 'the reinvestmento As an ,examples if as property worth orig- Ina lly $100,000, the anawl $20000 depreciation fund, if used for new ex- tensions, it is claimed the earning would be 6 on $102,000 or $6,630 in , stead of 6j% on- $100.000 or $6,5500. Actually-it does not work out :that wasy. The depreciation fund is usually invested in new extensions which by the- selves, do not generally ,reach a basis of fair returrn for, w:any ythem- selves, xao Fur theraore the guide as to fair return asst be figured on a basis of a fair,, arcauaal addition to the, earned our end- available for dividends, oaf to.:' operating costs, taxes And depreciation on the portion of the system on which depreciation is to be carried, rani.n6t on an assmaption that each new extension or piece of equipment will 1=8diately pew its full share. k Mr. To L. Todd, President —3- Augast 100 ice} I now wish 'to take up the matter of the parvion' of the UAlItS;, if any, grgnted, to the lo,% purchr►sers by the State Scprem6 Court. 2h(V claim is made by the CorrmY that the decision could not possibly iucl.ude. Lore than the portion of the pips lines f:-onttng 'eadh lot sold prior _,o Oct. 1, p35o In the case of a. water utility owned ty a aaanicipalityo only that portion of s water main fronting on a lot is taxed against that, lot. 'die tax does not Include any cost to cover trunk line fseders�, p=* - Ing squipmento real estate nor a other pieces of equipment which are o.s a- general natureo This would preclude the inclusion of the 50th Ste 1324 sad the tank in a7 purchase by lot owners. On the date of trasnsfe& Doyle► Bross had,a right to sell. the 30% of the lines in the old Country Club Die, trict fronting on lots they owned plus lines fronting on• property not 4�5 divided into lots and also the property oa =50th Street and the tank located on the golf club land. The statement •Improvements in and paid .for* couIa not by any stretch of imagination includo more than to usually includ,ed,iu lot tames. In fact it is quite probable that fines fronting on lots eoll prior to the ' date of stock transfer of the Country Club District Service • Comparq amounted to a great deal less than the 70% used in these calcu- stiv.1s for the original country club district. In this connection we might etate that we cannot conceive, n -6a can the judge of the District -Court nor can several attorneys, understand the.reasoning nor the intent of the higher court. There certainly was nz, intention of Thorpe Bras.' to sell a. portion of the sewer„ water, electlie and/or telephone eistem' s. when a lot wag Bold in -the Country Clubo We ca if on egery original lot buyer who could be located in the T=in City Ax 6331 do dete=lne this point. A stenographer took down their statements. We alsc, obtained signed statements from all lot 'salesmen, except Charles Hay w'i two who were" out of the, aityand who' did not answer correspondenceo Tie • ul. lot saleeman who claimed he thought these utilities were includ6d was Cbai•A.;. Hem. Perhaps his sbarp fued .with Hr. So S'. 'Thorpe; Sro over the psyma�x of rent for the house he occupied for many years aaight have had a beari �e on the matter of his claimed - understanding. It all o thaso called only ore man who had purchased a lot from Mrs Ray, stated that he had any understazd jug that any utility limn were 1=1,jaed. with hie lot. This fact toge`th,,e� with paragraph, 10 of each deed, it seems to me, precludes any possible that a ^y utility lines were included 'in any lot purchases; if each xe t,iL case, and we honestly believe it to be so, then I cannot see wby *he any of such pgoperty does not violate the 5th amendment to, the federate coc• e.itutiouo Nothing in the calculations has beau Included in the capitaiiaa- tion to cover cost of securing franchiseo working capital, including etc,:A Of supplies, meters (which 'are handled at cost) , advance payaaents etc, Thtv,c are legl.timate . additions to capital. cn which it is fair to earn a Te V,=: Inclusion of t7kLsse items wolmld show greateil, losses than those in the attached hereto.

The water is first pumped to an elevated tank for aeration, following which it is repumped to the distribution system, Location' The wells are located on .plopin& ground which has good surface drainage to all sides except to the north. Uinnehaha Crank is situated about 125 feet from the well and at the time of this investigation flood water approached within 94 feet of the walls. The earth formations end distances to possible- sources of contamination are generally satisfsotory. Ground water is. encountered at 20 -30 foot oelow ground surface. ;ells, rumps. and jump stations The old well, designated asldo. 1, is pas ®d with a 16 -iaah pipe to a depth of 69 feet, arid 197 feet further with a 12 =inch pipe. The 16 -inoh casing extends to a point snout 16 inches above the floor of the pumproomo The casing ends in the .Shakopee dolomite. Well No. 2, the new well, to located about 44 feet south of well Rio. 1 and is drilled to-a depth of 197 feet: The well is cased with a 20-inch iron pipe to a depth of 69 feet, and further with a 16 -inoh iron pipe to the bottom of the well. The 20 -inch easing, extends to a point 14 inches above the floor of the pumproon. No sorsehs are used on either well. iI + 2 + The floor of puwn station No. 1 is constructed of concrete and ie lever with the surface of the around on the north-side* stator on the floor is re- moved through a floor drain and is diacharC;ed into ea.tabsorption.pit, the exact location of which is not known. Pump station No• 2 is located about g0 feet south of tho former. The- floor, which is aonstruc,%;ed.of concrete, is li feet above ground and has the some elevation as that of station. No. 1, The floor drain is eonn6Asd to a pipe'whieh oondudta Waite crater to an absorption pit located about 12 feet from the well. The filtration of such material through they soil for this distance is not considered sufficient to effectively remove the contamination before the,_ water reaches the well. Water is drawn from well 'No. 1 by means' of a water- lubricated pump of the vertical turbine type which can Ue operated at a rate of either 350 or 850 gallons per minute. The discharge tee.is located about 1i feet a-4ove the floor of the ' p umproom. Nell No. 2'is" equipped with a vertical turbine, water - lubricated pump. at a rate of 1,600 gallons per minute, and is set on a .concrete base 12 inches high. There are some openitCs under the base of-the pump through which dirt and dust may enter the supply. There is an opening in the base of the pump which is fitted with a wooden plug. No well vent is provided. The static Water level, is about 43 feet below the surface of the ground. and the maximum draw- down.ia about 27 foot in Moth wells. The .aerated water is repumped to the system by means of two centrifugal. booster pumps located in pumphouse No. i. 'these pumps are rated as followst Pump "A* 600 to 1,200 gallons per minute, and Pump "B1e - 2000 to 5000 gallons per minute. i.i Storage The 75,000- gallon elevated steel tank furnishes storage, but is not high enough to provide suffioient pressure in all parts of the system. "ressure is therefore maintained in the diatri;bution system by continuous operation of the rooster pumps. Distributiofa System The distribution system consists of-10.18 _milers of water mains, dis- tributing water to 900 services and-106 fire hydrants. The hydrants are drained to gravel pooketa• There are no flush tankep blow - offs, air relief$ or valve manholes. The old grater and sewer :services are laid in the same trench, but all the new pipes are installed in separate trenches. The water . mains and sewers In.the streets are in separate- trenghoe. The oonsumption of water per day varies from 300,000 to 1,500,000 gallons. Plumbing It was observed durint the course of the investigation that there were plumbing fixtures which were designed and installed In such a way that they constitute a hazard to the Water suonly. Eiater supply outlets which can•bey_submergod will permit mater to be back- s�ohonsd or drained into the vnior piping system. It is known that partial vacuums occur occasionally on vat ©r.distribution sybtems when the system is drained and the normal pressure is relieved by brooks in the mains, by fire engine pumps, by opening the system for repairs,'ete. Vihen a partial vacuum is produced on the water piping system,,plumbing which -is unsatisfactory either from the standpoint of design or installation, or both,' msiy ue a means whereby contanination may bo drawn into the water distribution system. It was not-poseibbe during this investiCa #on, because of the limited - 4 ` time, to make s complete survey of all the plumbing that is connected to the water system. It is very likely, .howover, that there are, installations of faulty plumbing and arose oonaeotions amused by faulty plumbing other than those observed at the time of the investigation. Analytioal Data Samples 78415, 75476, 75477, 754780 7419$,.74210 and 14311 represent water oolletted From the wells and from various poiuta on the distribution system. The beoteriolocical examination"of these samples showed the peter to ue of good sanitary quality as evidenced by the fact that oreauisns of the cola- aerogenos Group were not found In 100 mlo portions of the samples examined. Summary of Defeats 1. Continued trading operations around.tho pump stations are still necessary in order to provide suitable drainage conditions around these atruetur s. 2. Waste water on the floor of pump statioxi No. 2 is disohargod too close to the wells. 3. `Ihere are some openings under the-base of pump No. 2 through vh1oh dirt and dust may enter the supply. 4. There is a hole through the base of pump go, 2 which is closed with a wooden plug. S. Po well vent is provided for well No. 2. 6. Most of the water servibes and house sewers are laid in the same trenches. 7. No special protection apninst leakage is provided where water mains and sowers oroes each other. Be Where are plumbing fixtures which are faulty in design and inetalla- tion. Recommendations 1. Grading operations aro necessary in order to provide.suitabl6'. drainage conditions around the pump stations. The ground should be sloped array from these -structures so as to. prevent the - accumulation and retention-of surface water within .a distance of 60 feet from them. 2. ►frste hater in the pump stations should be removed through floor drains to gravel pockets at least 30 feet from the wells.' The drains from the pumprooms to the gravel. pockets.should be constructed of cast -iron soil pipes as described in Paragraph 808, Seotion VIII of the lianual.of Water Supply Sanitation. 3. Cement grout should be applied around the bases of pump No. 2 to seal all leaks. b lsl mixture of sand and cement will serve the purpose. .4• The hole in. the ease of pump ?1o. 2'should be provided with a vent which extends at least two feet above the pumproonz- floor. The vent opening should be provided with a fine mesh screen Aich is further protected by an overlapping hood or cover to prevent.materials from entering the supply. The vent pipe should not bo less than 1 inoh in diameter, or should 'ue of suffic- ient additional diamoter to prevent high air velocities through the vent. (See Paragreiph 807, Section VIII of the Hanual) S. The practice of Dying, now water and 'sawer services in .separate �renehee at least ten feet apart should be oontinued. Whenever the opportunity occurs, existing installations which have the rater and sewer pipes laid in the same trench should ne reconstructed in the ai'ormentioned manner. 6. Where water pipe and curers cross, all that part of the sewer lying within ten feet of the water pino.should be oonstruoted of oast -iron pipe with water -tight ,joints. 1 fY: 6 . 7. The installation of all new plumbing should be made In accordance ,with the provisions of the 6tate Plumbing CoOer, and all existing plumbing . which is not properly designed or properly installed, or both, should be changed to conform with the State Plumbing Code as soon as the opportunity to ,do so presents itself* efforts should be made to looete all cross oonnections, potential and direct, which ha.re,been caused by faulty plumbing design and installation.. This is advisable so thct the location of danger point* may be known, and steps taken to guard against and to avoid these dangers whenever this is possible *. On the basis of the inftrmmtion obtained from such a survey, a program should be undertaken which would have as its objective the- ,correotion of as many as ' possible of these unsatisfootory installations. (Further infoXmetion on faulty and correct plumbing v&ioh may be of assistanos in developing a program for the .correotion of faulty plumbing installations is aoniainod in the bulletin dnt -ltled "Plumuing in Relation to Public i4.alth.f1) .8, As a. counter measure against sabota&o,' all unauthorised visitors -should be excluded from waterworks property. P'umphouees, reservoirs and other structures should be kept looked. Speciel.'vigilande should,bo maintained with arrangements for patrol of the property by local police, especially at sight, to prevent trespass and vandalism. Conclusion The field survey showed that the construction of this supply did not entirely comply with the sanitary st .andarde'of this Department. The foregoing reoo=endatirns should be carried out in.order- that this supply may be oaf a guarded agaiaet contamination,, Y.. H. Odland,, assistant Engineer .Approvede H.. At.

Hawthorne, Clerk 4695 Wooddale Avenue Minneapolis, Minnesota Gentlemen: We are enclosing a copy of the report of our Division of Sanitation covering an investigation of the water supply of your village. Yours very truly, C� A. Chesle Y . D., Executive Of i r era H. A. WHITTAKER. DIRECTOR DIVISION OF SANITATION ` May 23, 1934. Mr. C. J. Christopher, President, The Country Club Association, 4404 Sunnyside Road, Edina, Minnesota. Dear Sir! As verbally requested by you a few days ago I am hereby submitting a few comments on the report of the Pillsbury Engineering Company covering the Edina water works system. 1. Briefly these comments are as follows: I do not feel that the present franchise of the Country Club District Service Co. can be abrogated before its expiration in 1948.. 2. We have nothing�to prove that the water tank and the 50th main have been charged into the price of the lots sold by Thorpe Bros. The Pillsbury report assumes that this has been done. 3. It is believed that the only plan by which water consumers can obtain a lower rate is by the installation of artesian wells with automatic electric pumps. 4. It is not deemed advisable to soften this water at the pumping plant. For those who wish to have softened water It is recommended that they purchase a small zeolite home softener and install it on the hot water side only. In the average home only 15% of the total water used is heated. Softening the cold water would raise its .temperature and make it less desirable for drinking. Very satisfactory home softeners can be purchased from $49.00 up. The charging compound is common rock salt costing only one cent per pound. 5. Hundreds of concerns in the Twin City area are using water from the Jordan level and find little trouble from the clogging of pipes. Soap consumption is about twice that for Minneapolis water. With softened water as recommended above the soap consumption will be cut considerably below that now used with Minneapolis water. 6. It any rust stain due to iron is found objectionable this can be easily remedied at low cost by the use of rustic ide. 7. The statement in the Pillsbury report that it is impossible to paint a very pleasing pictixre of lower water rates in the district is not concurred in. I feel that a substan- tial reduction can be made. -2- S. The capacity of the present tank, according to detail blue printe'supplied by the manufacturer, is 75,000 gallons. The'Pillsb'ury.report estimates the capacity at only 60,000 gallons. This tank has ample capacity for our requirements where.automatic electric pumps are used. It is not considered necessary to construct another tank as recommended in the Pillsbury_ report. The tank elevation is considered suffi- cient to give the water pressure we need. The condition of the tank is satisfactory. The Service Company is now having_ it painted. 9. The peak water demand of our district, according to computa- tions made by the writer and checked by the Superintendent of the Minneapolis Water Department, is about 360 gallons per minute. A tank of 75,000 gallon capacity should therefore last three to.four hours at the maximtm rate of consumption.. even if the pumps do not operate. 10.. Should the Village decide to buy the water system, or any portion thereof, the routine for doing so is provided for in the franchise. Three engineers would make an appraisal of the equipment to be purchased. These engineers could then determine whether or not the offer of $15,000 made by Thorpe Bros. is reasonable. 11. The Pillsbury report recommends a policy of "watchful waiting" on the part of the village in the hope that the Service Co. will turn the system over at no.cost. It is not believed that the village can secure the system in this manner. Reduced water rates would be a long time in arriving with this policy. 12. The Pillsbury report estimates the cost of wells and equipment including a new tank at $9,750,. at $27,000. This new tank Is considered unnecessary.. The investigations.of the Water Committee of the Association showed that two wells with. equipment and pump house could be installed near the present tank for $15,000, including painting of the tank. 13. The operating cost with two automatic electric •pumps should be less than six cents. per thousand gallons instead of eleven cents as estimated in the Pillsbury report. Cost of power Is estimated at $1500 instead of $2300 and labor at ,$500 instead of $2400. Miscellaneous costs should be.far less than the $2000 estimated in the Pillsbury report. 14. Instead of a rate of 19.2¢ per 1000 gallons (14.4¢ per 100 cu. ft.) it is believed that -,�7��b ystem of water supply sh�O d .give a rate of 1¢ per gal lons �9 per 100 cu. ft.) for Tess. 15. Advanta es of well water to the district, not fully brought out in he t Pill re s ury port are as follows: i -3- (a Lower cost Much more palatable than Minneapolis water. (�c) Better pressure than at present. d) Much colder during the summer thereby making it possible to use this water for air cooling and washing at low cost. (e) Good advertising for the district. Good drinking water will attract more residents. 16. The possibility of savings in power cost with a diesel engine is' mentioned in the Pillsbury report. It is believed that this plan would not be �easible for the relatively small amount of energy we require for pumping and street lighting. The cost _of labor alone would very probably be more than the entire cost of purchased electric energy. In addition there would be.the cost of fuel, repairs, supplies, cooling water, etc j , to say nothing of interest, heavy depreciation and amortization. On account of insur- ance requirements and demands for continuity of service at least two generating units would be required'instead of one unit. Other disadvantages of diesel engines would be excessive noise, vibration and fire hazard from large oil tanks. 17, The Pillsbury report suggests a plan of taxing property where water service is available for new capital expendi- tures on a frontage foot' basis. It would seem more equitable to have these capital expenditures charged in the rate structure. In order that present water users who have paid for water mains fro property shall not pay or equ�t from which late, r users shall unfairly fairly be , a e differential should be made. It hardly se r `fair to tax vacant lots for equipment its owners cannot use. Furthermore,- it is very doubtful if Thorpe Bros. would extend the offer of $15,000 for the system if vacant lots they now own would be taxed to pay for any new capital expenditures. If the plan of taxing on the frontage foot basis recommended in the Pillsbury report is used, the rate structure should not contain charges for interest, depreciation and amortization in the manner they have been _set up. 18. The undersigned does not believe that the construction of a pump house or a water tank shculd be combined with that of a village hall. This view is taken largely because of the fact that the present tank is considered satisfactory for our purpose. If the construction of a village hall is found desirable, it is believed that it should be handled as a separate project. Very truly yours, (signed) OSCAR GAARDEN Oscar Gaarden Chairman, Water Committee Country Club Association. 1* i. 1923 *1924 ,.� 1920 1936 Wid COAStruottan Acquire%% -'1036 Going coneem Value RSCAPITUIATZ011 (IF UTIER WOMS AMATSMAL 'D AT A(,W-AL1-M4TUOT- 00$TW-,, AND, OMPARX13ON *Lee$ 10justment for at, .Main built In 1924 by Smoltor Oonst.

Mr. Lee Todd`s Mr. Howard Utley Mr. Carl Schmidt _ Mr. Bower Hawthorne Gentlemen: I thought it wise to dictate on the day following our - September 22nd meeting tae substance of the notes I kept during the meeting; copy thereof is enclosed for.your general information. Very truly yours, Enc. j NOTES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING OF EDINA VILLAGE COUNCIL FRIDAY P.M. - 'SEPTEMBER 22, 1944. Present before convening the meeting: Todd Moore Utley Venuum Schmidt Hawthorne went to get Wilson at Legion meeting. Mr. Gaarden distributed copy of. "Comparative water Rates" from 1939 issue of Minnesota Year Book. Howthorne arrived without Wilson or Wyatt. Todd called meeting,to order -= announced a quorum present. Todd announced-that the meeting especially called to give consideration to revising water rates and charges made by the Service Company. Gaarden stated that he had notice of the meeting and had received the proposed findings.. Todd states that the Council members are .all open minded on all phases of the matter and that they are present to hear all-Lthat he may have to offer upon the matter of valuation and proper rates. Gaarden proceeded to discuss items appear- ing in "Proposed Findings" accompanying Schmidt's letter to Utley of September 6, 1944: Gaarden took up the matter - -- item by item. ITEM 1. Gaarden stated.that the files contained no explanation of how the figures were arrived at. Mr. Schmidt -1 a w explained the same to him in detail. Gaarden stated that this item and Item 2, so far as the figures were concerned, did not substantially vary from his recollection of the facts. Gaarden, Schmidt and others entered into calculations as to differences between'the figure in Item 1 and figures previously submitted by Gaarden. Gaarden inquired as to whether or not the 1941 construction in the.sum of x¢26,932.71 and the 1928 construc- tion in the sum of y788.45 were included. Schmidt replied in the affirmative. Total x27,721.17. Deducting this ;27,721.17 from $161,345.03 there is left 133,625.80, the total contri- bution of property made both by Thorpe Brothers and the Service Company.` Gaarden ►s figure for this result was 111�154,157.00 as against our `133,625.80, leaving a difference of 20,531.20. Schmidt pointed out.to Gaarden that. this is the difference be- tween the Graber appraisal and Schmidt's figures; that Schmidt used the Graber appraisal as an inventory only but applied actual costs thereto as evidenced by the original contracts and invoices. In other words, the actual or historical cost is $20,531.20 Tess thane the Graber reproduction cost. In Schmidt's figure there w.as included 6% for engineering for all years since 1936. ITEM 2. Schmidt explained to.Gaarden that this is com- prised of.the same items as.1tem 1, but being a reproduction cost is based-on Lambert's index for 1940. The year 1940 is selected because the franchise contemplates normal reproduction costs and 6AM IL therefore excludes war conditions. Shortly before this 117yatt entered the meeting. Gaarden states that of arriving at the $133,500.00 bec appraisal. He then stated that he items and set across therefrom the .stage Messrs. Wilson-and he objects to the .method ause he stood on the Graber will list each of these figures he believes correct along with an appropriate explanation therefor. Gaarden thinks. that the differ.ence in reproduc- tion cost is about $21,000 which is again about the same difference as in Item 1. ITEM 3. This is Item 1 less depreciation. Schmidt told Gaarden he will'use a depreciation rate of 2 %; that Gaarden's accounts.showed same as high as 2.04 and some under 2%; that Schmidt arrived at an average of 1.99% but adopted 2%.- ITEM 4. The same as Item 2 less depreciation, using same composite basis at 2 %.for depreciation. Passed without comment` by Gaarden. ITEM 5. Schmidt explained this item included engineering at 6%. Passed without comment. ITEM 6. Gaarden admits that the Lambert Waterworks Index is commonly used and-is O.K. for this purpose. No other comment by Gaarden. ITEM 7. This is Item 5 less depreciation at 2% as of January 1, 1944. No particular comment by Gaarden. -3- ITEM 8- This is Item 6 less same depreciation at January 1, 1944. no particular comment. ITEM 9 Gaarden stated he' was not clear as to this item. Schmidt explained the same in detail to him. This is the actual original construction cost less depreciation actually taken since 1935 and to.January 1, 1944.. Gaarden stated'.,that he now understood it.. ITEM 10 Gaarden admits that he is not entitled to a return on this $14,900 but is entitled to charge depreciation on this sum because he must replace the property. Gaarden thinks the figure is about right. ITEM 11 This is Item.9 less Item 10. No particular comment necessary. ITEM 12 The discussion of this item occasioned con- siderable talk concerning the amount of money placed in the Company by Gaarden and Thorpe Brothers at the outset and the amount of money paid by Gaarden to, Thorpe Brothers - later paid for preferred stock. Messrs. Utley, Schmidt and Moore explained to him that the $15,300 represented issuance of '.preferred stock by the Company which ordinarily would have value but in this case had no value because the Company re- ceived nothing for it and was thus an ,imprudent'c j_° invest- ment. Gaarden was advised that we believe that an item representing no property passing to the Company should be entitled to consideration as.a factor in determining the rate base. ITEM 13 Gaarden stated that this item was self- explanatory.and he needed no further information on it. He admitted having received a copy of Table 3 prepared by Schmidt and forwarded-to him during the summer. ITETdI 14 Gaarden stated that this was self.- explanatory - -- having been explained in tabulations already presented to him. ITEM 15 Considerable discussion was had concerning the propriety of 6% rate of return. Gaarden mentioned the return of Minneapolis Gas Company which is fixed at 62 and stated that it was established, according to his uncertain information, in the year 1939 or thereabouts. Schmidt read from his report to the Council upon the subject of rate of return three pages. Gaarden states that his present interest rate',on mortgage is 5 %. Upon questioning, Gaarden admits that the arguments for 6 %-as read by Schmidt are good --.that he would not say 6% was unfair; that if other valuations were agreeable he would concede that 6% was satisfactory. ITEM 16 This point raised considerable discussion in- volving subject of dual ownership of the entire system and the collection of depreciation upon that portion belonging 0670 to the Village. Gaarden agreed that he would collect the depreciation and would turn it over to us assuming that we arrived at a proper valuation and that the property owned by the Village and owned by him could be definitely marked off so that there would be definite responsibility for replacement. Various methods of handling depreciation were discussed. Portion of the system built by the Village on 54th Street was brought . up for discussion and it was stated that it .should.be disposed of on the same basis as the Country Club District. ITEM 17 Gaarden stated that he would say "off hand" that the amount was O.K. ITEM 18 Gaarden stated that Schmidt's estimate of 14,000 cubic feet annually per customer was about right, and that the use of 904 meters was also O.K. There followed a discussion concerning the propriety of the 60 cents service charge, part rates,.and step rates. ITEM 22 Mr. Venuum brought up the matter that the interest on the mortgage was operating expense. After a dis- cussion Gaarden agreed it was not operating expense. Utley brought up the matter whether Income Taxes should be deducted before calculating the amount of return. Utley contended that it could not be and Gaarden claims that it should be handled as all other taxes. Irm Several members of the Council engaged in this discus- sion, all contrary to Gaarden's contention. further. Gaarden will investigate this matter Mr. Moore then asked Gaarden if he thought we should take into consideration,in arriving at fair value, the excessive-earnings made and the depreciation heretofore taken upon property the Service Company did not own, and Gaarden replied that.,assuming there were such excessive earnings and excessive depreciation, there should be an adjustment. The discussion proceeded to the matter of hydrant rental, it being Gaarden's contention that hydrant rental should be charged as a separate item separate from the rates because it was scientifically correct.to do so. It was stated that there were '900 meter users who were get- ting fire protection, 300 getting fire protection were not paying for it because they had their own wells, and some 800 users in the farming section that benefited on.neither point. It was stated by Hawthorn and others that certain residents who had their own wells were not getting a reduced fire insurance rate. Schmidt asked Gaarden if there were any other factors set forth "in the proposed findings" which we had otherwise overlooked that should be considered by us in arriving at a fair value. Gaarden said he knew of none and that he believed we had covered the ground. About the middle of the meeting Mr. Moore told Gaarden that if it was necessary to go to court on this rate matter, the Council probably would not allow SfC him to charge his attorney fees as an expense of operation. NOTE: • Appeared that the two principal points.of dispute involved the weight to be given to Gaarden's claim as to whether or not he still owned 30% of the system with the old Country Club District, and in addition the prbpri(!.�ty of the Graber appraisal. -8- N10L s, /!%�- 7fi�'ie�� so uThern //• 13 c cl' So MTh of rej1-xAdc 5 _cJ To s, v ®.

YIAft1$APC�IS, BdIO1A Amt 100, 1944 Jiro To Lo Todd, President, Wins VIl3X4e ,COQncll, 5404 Park - Place, City (106 Dear Mr. Todd: I aam sorry that there has been a considerable delay in the prep- oration of the data to show.whether or-not the net revenue obtainod frow the ,operation of the. adina Water Utility as separate and dietenct from the portion of the sewer system to which ire clAiam ownership. At this particular, time the delay could not well have been avoided. Furthermore the Job is rather involved as an inspection of the figures attached hereto will reveal The Water Company is aeking that the .Village pay for ,fire protec- tion service on a basis which will not only repay it for -extra operating expenses but also to -give a fair return on the investment in the portion of the water utility .owned b y it. .While it is believed the proper basis for calculating the cost, of fire protection is eat forth in the forcmulae used by the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin, the ;f'illage has indi�ut that it would rather consider the- -baaie to be an overall fair return includ+ir�c revenue from domestic service. At ' our last meeting, we pr=ised to make a setup based on this theory. These are set forth in Tables 1,2,3 we 4., Table I sets up, three columns based on interprte.tions of the opinion given by the :,Cate Smogs:: a Court and also on the, nee of depreciated value rather than original cost.e.s ,a baets for fair returne Before the u6— vent of the "new deal" the Mited States Supreme Court estebl 4 ,� *, ed for a period -of over 50 years that the rate base for public utilities 9�.culd ba determined by consideration of historical coat, reproduction coet same dent investment* The plan of wing depreciated value as a raze bas! s -was not con®idered and indeed could not be if public utilities,are to give good service and pay investors a f6ir return on their investment.

Awsast 10, 1944 _OL Accuuulations of reserve from A to D should be sufficient to cover. retirements between B and D. iven though the reserve is reinvested back into the property the utility is responsible for replacement of equip- ment retired, even though this requires new money from outside the utilities depreciation turd• (3) If we assume that a property of say $100,000 orig- inal cost with-an- average life of 90 errs were considered, tha annual strait - line depreciation rate would be $ A fair return w6ula yield the investor 6j¢ or $6,500. Suppose the depreciation fund. at =2#600 fat the first year were reinvested is the property* an the theory than depreciated value should be the rate base the base would then be $98,000 but the ramining life of the property in service is only slightly above 49 years. The depreciation charge for the second year would then be 2.04%. For the third year it would be only slightly over 48 years, or a depreciation rate of 2.08 Following this example through it would be discovered that the required extra allow- ance for depreciation would be exactly equivalent to the allowance of the fair return on the fall original investment of $1000000 and a 2% rate of depreciation. This is proven in books published on utility, appraisals and is upheld by the chief engineer of the Aisemein.Public Service Commissiono Some goverment commissions have, however, in this time of political pressure against public utilities, used depreciated value instead of original cosh as a rate base in spite -of its proven economic falsity, 1!he-Yinneapolis Gas Light Co. franchise uses the original.cost as a rate basso The argument is sometimes used that if depreciation funds are reinvested in now property that earnings are higher than fair by the relaF- tive smomnt of the reinvestment, 'As an example, if a property worth orig- inally $100,000, the annual $2,000 depreciation fund, if used for new ex- tensions, it is claimed the earning would be 6j¢ on $102,000 or $6,630 in- stead of 6i% on $100,000. or $6,5000 Actually it does not work out that wayo The depreciation Rand is usually invested in new extensions which by them - selves, do not generally reach a basis of fair return for many years, Fur - thermore the guide as to fair return must be figured on a basis of a fair annual addition to the earned.surplus fund available for dividends, after operating casts, taxes and depreciation on the portion of the system on which depreciation is to be carried, and not on an assumption that each new extension or piece of equipmeat will immediately pay its full share, w Mr To Lo Todd.

At this time, all necessary charges viere paid -- including cost of making the tapo However, when it was necessary to make the connection, Mr. Oscar Gaarden,, or his representative, stopped the viork claiming that it would be necessar for me to first make a payment to Mr. Gaarden of 500000 Because of previous legal faction which I investigated quite thoroughly, I understand that this arbitrary assessment is Illegal. I was certain payment was unnecessary -- particularly after the permit was granted by the Village of Edina and arrangements made with .them for making the tap. Nevertheless, Mr. Gaarden prevented completion of the job, and I was forced to pay this $50000 charge at a time when it would have been far more costly to hold up finishing the job. 0 i _ ME" �.< � - !• �. f� rr vne, .., .:�� � jq!t {w ___ � - _... ..hrr�., _. _ ��., ,.e,e ,t.�1�} �:$� -I "1a� �ft������ \:'. -. �t Edina Village Council -2- July 6, 1944 This payment was made under protest and with an under- standing between Mr. Gaarden and me that I would be reimbursed for this amount if it did not meet with the approval of the Edina Village Council.

We herewith enclose our statement for ser- vices rendered in the :above matter since March 3, 1943. It includes all work ,done since the completion of the case proper,and it ha's to do entirely with the present situation between tha village and the Service Company. These ,charges have been calculated upon the same basis as embraced in our agreement with respect to the conduct of the litigation and as set forth in our letter of April 14, 1939 to the president of the Council: "Accordingly, vie propose that vie be paid the sum of $50.00 per day (7 -hour day per man) for pre- paration of.the case, and X100.00 per day for trial." The work rendered since the litigation obviously includes no trial work. The total time expended on the basis set forth above amounts to 132 days which, at 050.00 per day, would reach 4,675.00. Considering the nature of the work performed to date, we feel that this figure is somewhat. high and have reduced it accordingly. It is my recollection that a formal claim should be attached to this statement. If so, would you kindly forward me the blank and it will be executed. 1 Yours very truly, STINP45ELD, MACK 1, CROUNSE & MOORE Enc. By �c I ay 19 .1944 I-r. I.

E STAR JOURNAL PATTERN Pattern 4229 is available in Women's sizes 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, Mrs. Kellogg Is Married in New York Of interest to the many friends of the bride here is the an- nouncement of the marriage of Mrs. Lester Clark Kellogg of New York city, formerly of 4620 Fremont avenue S., and John Stanley Wise of New. York, on Dec. 31. The bride was former- ly Jessie Reynolds of Minneap- olis. After the death of her hus- band, Mrs. Kellogg traveled in Europe and South America and returned to the United States re- cently. Mr. Wise was born in Saskatchewan, Canada, and studied engineering in London, England, where he was graduat- ed before extensive travels in Africa and South America. During the first World war, Mr. Wise was with the British Ministry of War and returned to the United States In 1928. He was actively connected with many large utility organizations until his present association since 1936 with the Chase Na- tional bank of the City of New York. The couple will live in New York. Mr. Wise is a trustee of Suf- folk university, Boston, Mass., and a brother- in -lane of the well known architect and artist, Har- old Field Kellogg of Boston. Plymouth chapter OE5 will have public installation of offi- cers Tuesday at 8 p. m, in Plym- outh Masonic temple, 1912 Emer- son avenue N. Officers to be in- stalled are Dorothy Frederick, f I,have accepted the Supreme Court decision as determining that the plant and property'-installed prior to the Service Company's assumption control prior to 1936 is not to be included in the Service Company's account. Such property therefore has been excluded and the property here { valued, as belonging to the Service Company,, is that which has been acquired and installed by the Company prior to 1936. It is admitted, however, that at the time Gaarden gained control of the Corporation in 1936, $15,300.00 in preferred stock was issued by the Company to Thorpe Bros. which Gaarden later individually acquired by purchase. No consideration appears for such stock issue" and counsel for the Village informs me.that none exists, and that, at all events, such preferred stock issue constitutes an imprudent investment which should be excluded from the property account. I do not pass upon the legal effect of the transaction between Thorpe Bros., the Service Company, and Gaarden. The fact remains, however, that such preferred stock was issued and the existence of the stock appears upon the books and records of the Service Company. In order to be more than fair, however, and`to.eliminate any dispute con- cerning the inclusion and exclusion of-,the item, I have determined to include such figure_($15,300) in such property .account. Also, at the same timeAthere was issued 200 shares of no par value stock to which was ascribed a capital amount of 06,700. However, according to the comments and decision of the Supreme Court of.Minnesota in the suit herein referred to, it is 'obvious that no payment was made in any amount for the stock, and it therefore has been ex- cluded from any consideration whatever: c. z i.

Smith Village of Edina Engineering & Purchasing Dept. 4801 West 50th Minneapolis 10, Minnesota Dear Mr. Smith: In connection with your telephone inquiry of October 22 regarding.fire hydrant rental rates charged in municipalities having privately owned municipal water systems, you may find of interest the three enclosed memorandums. Two relate generally to methods of charging for public fire protection, including hydrant rentals; the third lists munici- palities from 10,000 to 25,000 population which do not own or operate a municipal water system and the hydrant rental charged in each. . According to the State Health Department, Sanitation Division, the Minnesota municipalities served by privately owned water works are the following: Cass Lake 1,904 Center City 251 Coleraine 1,325 Crookston 7,161 Deephaven 1.026 Edina 5,855 Hollandale :'..219. International Falls 5,626 Proctor 2,468 St. Joseph 1,055 Sedan 126 Tower 820 Tracy 3,085 ✓" If you think it would be helpful to contact these municipalities with respect to hydrant rentals and you wish us to do so for you, let us know. We shall be glad to do whatever we can. In any case, we hope that the enclosures will give you useful information. Very truly yours �Z—z C. C.

The figures given in this minimum fee bill rep- resent the considered judgment of the Bar as to a scale of charges below which a competent and con- scientious lawyer cannot go without: , (a) Incurring the temptation to slight his work and thus fail to discharge his duty to his client, thus injuring his reputation and bringing the profession into disrepute; (b) Being unfair to his brother lawyers who are endeavoring to maintain proper standards of professional competency and, diligence. Exceptions to these charges may be made-in the case of: (a) Services for relatives; (b) Where genuine principles of charity fail to justify the minimum charge. Infractions may be ground for criticism or rep- rimand ' A lawyer's .best assets are the respect of his client and the good opinion of his fellow law- yers. The former •is diminished if the client knows that his lawyer does not consider his ,own services worth as much as those of other lawyers. The good opinion of his brothers at the Bar is lessened or lost when they learn that he is lowering the standards of the profession by evading or violating the principles of the fee bill.

Covell First National -Boo Line Building Minneapolis, Minnesota Dear Sir: Your letter of August 24th requesting payment of the court costs in connection with the law suit between the Village of Edina and the Country Club District Serv- ice Company has been received. As explained_ to Mr. E. C. Sharpe,'Mayor, at the time we presented our proposition some weeks ago for continued operation or sale of the water system, it would hardly be proper to make such payment until we are assured that the Village is not interested in the purchase. Our prop- osition for sale to the Village includes the court costs as a part of the terms and conditions; If we are to continue to operate the system, then.we are to pay the costs requested, according to our under- standing.

At our conference yesterday, you requested a statement from us concerning the basis for our compensation for the defanse of the Village in the above entitled action, wherein judgment is prayed against the Village for hydrant rentals at J50.00 per hydrant per year since 192 plus water furnished, for $38,268.50, and, in addition, compensation for the use of the storm sewage system for the same 15 -year period in the amount of $39,613.00, totalling $779881.50. It is claim- ed that these sums are due the company by virtue of the fran- chises and amendments granted the Village in 1923, and subse•- queritly thereto. It is quite impractical to here recite and discuss all of the many and varied phases of the matter. We mention, however, that, roughly, the defense depends upon two principal questions: 1. Who owns the water system in the district involved (including the hydrants, and 2. If the District Servioe Company is held to be the owner, what is the reasonable rental value of the hy- drants, and the incidental services rendered by the company to the Village? Upon the first question, it is necessary to gather and present all of the history of the relations between the Village, Thorpe Bros., and the District Service Company, from the beginning of the development to this day, with emphasis upon the official action of the council in relation thereto, in- cluding an examination of-all of the minutes of the council deal- ing with that subject matter, and particularly the gathering of proof of the representations made by Thorpe Bros. to purchasers of property within the district, wherein they were led to rely STINCHFIELD, MACKALL, CROUNSE & MOORE ELEVEN HUNDRED FIRST NATIONAL -SOO LINE BUILDING MINNEAPOLIS -2- upon Thorpe Bros.' representations of future freedom from the cost of such matters as are the subjects of these court act- ions. In the latter, we are already aided by certain written admissions of Thorpe Bros. We anticipate the expenditure of much tide and effort upon the _proper investigation and gather - ing of this_ information, as it bears mostly upon the deter- mination of the important question of ownership of the system in the district. It should be remembered; also, that if this question is determined favorably to us by the court, it should have a future long -time favorable effect upon the water rate to be charged, not only to the Village but also to the resi- dents of the Village. If the property is determined by the court to belong to the Village, the future water rate must, under the franchises and applicable principles of law, be bas - ed upon a substantially lower valuation, and hence reduced to accord with the investment properly allocable to that service. The defense to the second important question, viz., the reasonable rental value of the hydrants, and the use of the storm sewage system, depends considerably upon the nature of the testimony offered by the company, unknown to us at this time, and probably not to be disclosed until the trial, itself. It appears, however, that the company will rely upon the testimony of experts'in that field,-and, in addition, will attempt to allocate to the hydrants, and the 'additional equip- ment of all types and character" (paragraph 6, complaint) an exaggerated portion of the capital investment. To effectively meet these issues would require the employment by the Village of a qualified expert to testify upon the same matters. At this time it would appear that the case is reasonably certain to lead into the field of valuation, perhaps, of the entire district water system. At all events, we now believe that, on trial, we should be prepared to meet these eventualities,- as we cannot afford to await the end of our opponent's case to meet the contingencies now reasonably foreseeable. It is ap- parent to us that this phase of the case, both in the preparation and trial, will require much time and effort - particularly in preparation. There are, of course, questions of law upon which we must be thoroughly prepared, although much of this is already in shape by virtue of' former opinion. Vie have given the matter of compensation -for the conduct and defense of this action due consideration. It is practically impossible to fix a flat fee for the matter, and be assured of fair treatment both to the Village and to our- selves. Accordingly, we propose that we be paid the sum of $50.00 per day (7 -hour day per man) for preparation of the case, and 4100.00 per day for trial. The matter will require the at- + STINCHFIELD, MACKALL, CROUNSE & MOORE ELEVEN HUNDRED FIRST NATIONAL -SOO LINE BUILDING MINNEAPOLIS -3- tention and work.of two lawyers, both -in preparation and trial. As you -know, the. importance of the litiga- tion, and the result obtained, are always proper elements in fixing an attorney's fees. We feel that if a favorable result is obtained, there should be.some additional compensation. The presence of so many now unforeseeable factors leads us to propose that if the, result is substantially favorable, whether after trial or by acceptable compromise before or after trial, we receive an additional sum between $1000.00 and 62500.00, as we may then mutually,•agree. These proposals do not extend to appellate work, if such should become necessary. We should emphasize, also, that the above proposals contemplate services only, and exclude such dis- bursements as we may be necessarily compelled to incur, and exclude, also, compensation for services of experts, if any are needed. The disbursements- incidental to our services and preparation, and upon the trial, are never large. We would not, however, incur disbursements of any size without consent of your Council, and, of course, the matter of the employment of an ex pert, if needed, should be directly authorized. Perhaps, as a matter of business, a limit should be placed upon the disburse- ments incurred by us in the sum of $ , and that disburse- ments in excess thereof should be approved by.some representa- tive of the Council.

The water department in one -half to tyro- t2,►irds of the cities which hers muni- cipally ow msd water works receives no revemae from public firs service. the -third of the cities of 100,000 or more inhabitants pay hydrant rentals or water service charges to the water department. 1jnety -five of the 212 cities of 25,000 to 50,000 plpmlatlon. or 45 per cent, pay various amounts in the farm of hydrant rentals. The most common4 used basis is the per bydrt.nt rata par year. and this charge varies widely from city to city. Other methods vaed by a few cities include the speeified animal sam plan; charge per mile of pipe with allowance per hydrant for maintenance; and charge per Ineb -foot of pipe distribution system with allowance per hydrant for maintenance. A study made in 1940 tip► the Wisconsin Public Service Commission shows an average annual charge of M per hydrant in 88 municipally owned water systems, with a range of $51.00 to $100, and as average charge of fib per hydrant per year for 22 privately owned water plants.4 Another stud shows the average annual revenue per hydrant received br 47 mmicipally owned water works in Now kbglaad cities is $28, atoll by 43 privately oried water works, $47. Translated into an average an=Al per capita reveasm. it was found that the municipally owned water works in low lmglaad which received aspr pgment received an average ssnual per capita revenue of 66 cents and the privately owned rater works 88 cents, or an avera4e for both of 76 agate. This figure compares favorably with the corrospondim6 figure of 77 cents. given in the Namal of the American, Water Works Association, and computed from the charges of 64 works located in 22 states, covering the period 1982 -24.3 It is possible, of coarse, to determine the chargs per hydrant for air one year, bead on the parasntW of the cost of the water system applicable against fire protection. as indicated, above. This charts, however, would have to be revised each year as new bVirants are placed in service. Thds tends to reduaa the amber of b7drants installed to the detriment of the service. While the animal hydrant rental method is the oldest and the one Host generally in ass, it is the least desirable. Charges in different cities are in¢omparatile. because of the 4iffersaoe in the member of hydrants par mile of pipe, or other unit, and because of the differences in diameter of the pipe in which the hydrants ars placed. l9►drant rental payments in cities over 10,000 population are reported annually In The Hunicial Year Book (International City Kanagers' Ass'n).

While they feel that they would like to have this well located South of Fifty - fourth Street and in that territory, which would not interfere with any residential development, they would be perfectly willing to go along with you, provided everything meets with the approval of the General 'Inepection Bureau, State Department of Health, and the local residents, who may be inconvenienced to some extent by having a pumping station close to their homes. The Council would also like to have submitted.to them prior to the letting of the contract the bids with your reoommendations,.giving the contract price and the total cost of the improvement. It was suggested that you immediately proceed with ordering the necessary material, and' the location and other details can be agreed upon as soon as you can secure definite approvals.

At that time I asked that a reply be made in writing. No reply has been received. Because of the necessity of order- ing material at this time I again urge that Council action be taken as suggested in my letter. Very.truly yours, Oscar Gaarden, OG:LL President. V ..

Sharpe, Mayor, d Village of Edina, 4612 Edgebrook Place, F Minneapolis, Minnesota. Dear Mr. Sharpe:° � e�•LP= A few days,ago I called on youito discuss the matter of the urgent need of another deep well and pump to supply th ' domestic water demand in Edina. It �is very necessary that t'is well be installed by June lst, and preferably by May 1st thi_._. year. Last year I applied for approval of the Village Councils for a new well but it was disallowed. On account of the many new home's which have recently connected to our water mains it now becomes absolutely necessary that Council approval or a court order-be obtained for a larger water supply. As explained to you, locations recommended by the Minnesota Health Department were at the rear,end of the long lots at either West 54th Street and Halifax Avenue or at Test 52nd Street and Halifax Avenue. Unless the Village desires to lay an g" water main on Halifax Avenue between 52nd and 54th streets, I would suggest that you approve lot on the south side of 52nd Street between Halifax and Indianola Avenues. The pump house would be at the rear of the lot, on the high ground approved by the State Health Department. It is proposed that the pump be housed in a building which will match residences in the neighborhood, a blue print of which was presented a year ago. The well would be either 1611 or 2011 and would pump about 1000 gallons per minute against a pressure of 75 pounds per square inch. Only first class well drillers would be employed. It is proposed that the S" outlet pipe from the pump would connect to both 6" mains on Indianola and Halifax Avenues. Mr. Earl C. Sharpe, Mayor -2- January 20, 19+2 It is hoped that Council action would be taken immediately as considerable time will be required to secure OPM priority ratings and for delivery of materials. I would appreciate information in writing as to the action taken by the Council. OG:LL Very truly yours, A""� 1"� Oscar Gaa.rden, President. Burch 166 1949.

Sharpe, Mayor, Village of Edina, 4612 Edgebrook Place, Minneapolis, Minnesota Dear Mr. Sharpe: 19+2 As recommended by the Council at its meeting Monday evening, I immediately got in touch with Mr. 0. E. Brownell of the Minnesota Board of Health :(Division of Sanitation). He returned to the city last night and went over the proposed pump house site near 52nd- Street at Arden Avenue at 5:00 A.1,4. this morning. Mr. Carlson of the resident's committee was present. Pair. Brownell ruled out the 52nd and Arden location as being too low and too close to the creek. He still thinks the location should be on the high ground,on the south side of 52nd Street near Indianola Avenue. We looked. for a possible location near 50th Street and Halifax Avenue at the suggestion of Mr. Carlson. None was found. We went to a location north of 50th and Halifax, about where the proposed location of 491 Street woula come. While a high spot can be had there,a great deal; of pipe would have to be used to connect to our mains, more than�we would be able to get at this time. Furthermore, this is far from the water supply load center. I suggested to Mr. Brownell and Mr. Carlson the possible use of a submerged pump at the 52nd and Indianola location. This will probably satisfy both these gentlemen. With this arrangement no building or pump need show above ground. The pump would be about 100 feet underground so no noise could possibly be heard. I have written. for information and prices ,on.this pump today. If this proves to be a solution to our pumping difficulty I will immediately supply you the information to see if it meets with Council approval. I am greatly worried lest we will not get our pump installed before the June demand for water will be upon us. I am doing everything I can to hurry things along. OG :LL Very truly y urs, N Manager
