Anthony House, Delirium Tremens. : _ a ) bg NEVADA COUNTY VOLUME 50 Effective Feb. 1 . Wednesday, January 29,1975 »New NID water Effective February 1 Nevada Irrigation District customers will be paying higher -water bills with the average increase to be five per cent. NID’s board of directors adopted the 1975. rates at their Wednesday meeting. The new schedule has been revised from the original proposal because, according to Controller Bill Wells, ‘‘We thought it best to combine as many rates as possible’’. Under the new schedule there are three basic rates: 1. Raw water for agricultural use, 2. Chlorinated water and 3. Fully treated water. Member James McAdams said NID is looking for the day when there can be one standard water rate for all customers such as is the case with PG&E and under the 1975 rates about 50-percent of the various categories have been consolidated. Board President Francis Dobbas of Placer county said NID ‘“‘tried to stay at a net increase of five per cent to keep up with our bills’. Manager Al Scurr noted that the rate of inflation has gone up 14 per cent but that new services combined with the five per cent increase should be enough for NID to pay their employes a promised 10 per cent salary hike and meet the rest of their financial obligations as well: If this turns out not to be the case the rates approved. can orily be adjusted for an amount equal to the cost of living index rise. A complete break-down of the new water rates will be published at a later date. In other action: -Claims by Wayne A. & Helen E. Dahling and one by Darwin C. Miller for damages allegedly arising from the Cascade Siphon break were rejected and turned over to the insurance carrier. «Plans to abandon the White Ditch in the LaBarr Meadows area will proceed. The 6,083 foot ditch with 39 services will be put on a pipeline. -The construction. of three flow measuring stations at Lake Wildwood has been completed with NID requesting Boise . Cascade officials to allow the district to assume operation and maintenance of the stations. : -A contract with the State Division of Forestry for use of Ecology Corps force for maintenance in Auburn at a cost not to exceed $5,000 was approved. -A request by Thomas H. Rodes for variance of mainline extension policy for property off of Dry Creek Road in the North Auburn area was taken under advisement. _-Keith Sauers of Cranmer Engineering presented plans and. specifications for second stage Davis-Grunsky recreation facilities at Jackson Meadows Reservoir 7A0 Cents A Copy rates may be increased again, say in July and he gave a run-down on plans for Scotts. a a or August.
