MINUTES January 27 , 1994 2 BOARD OF HEALTH letter to hookup to water. " "It became knowledgeable that I had never hooked-up to water of which I admit I never hooked up to water at 4 Tritown Circle. " "It was the same time there was a lot of information in the newspaper about a num- ber of houses in Briarwood that also have never hooked up to water. " "At that time the health department was coming out with a program to get Water District to abate some of the in- stallation charges and have free installation for the plumb- ing and service connection in. " "When I received notice to hookup to water I again spoke with this Board and people and questioned why can't Tritown be included with Briarwood be- cause there were 4 or 5 people in those two streets that had not hooked up to water. " "I got back the comment, yes we will go to the Water District and try to get the same thing from the Water District and we'll try and do the same thing. " "I talked to the secretary of the Board of Health and asked her how Briarwood went about getting their free installation and she said that there was an individual who would be hook- ing up the service connection and somebody else would be do- ing the plumbing and I would like to get involved in that, it's the same basic thing. " "The fact that the Board of Health is going through the Water Commission to get the same thing that happened to Briarwood. " "It may be miscommunica- tion but I implied I would like to get the same thing. " "That's when I found out it was the secretary's boyfriend who was doing the hookup and I said have him do mine. " "At that time I then spent $1000.00 out of my own money, gave it to the Water District which was 100% of the fee, not a reduction in the fee like Briarwood and hoping that when the Board of Health went to the Water District Commission that they would okay waving the $500.00 and I would get $500.00 back. " ""I was hoping that that was going to happen. " "As it turned out I stepped down at the Water District Commission meeting and the other two Commissioner's denied all of Tritown and Horse- shoe Bend from getting a waiver. " "That time I already had spend all the money, gave $1000 .00 to the Water District to hookup, had the person come in and put the pipe into the house and I thought the secretary's boyfriend was going to hookup the water. " "It would be a misunderstanding. " "Time went on and I sent my maintenance man over there and he was always denied entrance into the house which seemed a little strange. " "We tried to find out about the tenant because the tenant had not paid their rent and they were going to be leaving. " "They kept denying entrance into the house. " ""I learned through the newspaper the reason he was being denied entrance. " "The police finally arrested him for robbery of a store in Falmouth. " "I also found out his son also had war- rants out and they were not letting people into the house. " "It then came to my attention that the house was not hooked-up to water" "They called me one day and said there was a leak. " "I sent someone over who said Richard they're not hooked-up to water. " "The next day I called another
