nights, but that the Celery Crate-PTA had complete control of it during this period.
Mr. H. B. Dudley, representative of Park-O-Meter Company, next appeared and demonstrated their
new 1953 oarklng meter, and recommended that the City install meters that will allow 1-hr
parking for .05¢ and 10-hrs. for .25~ in the parking lot be~dnd the Bus Station. He stated
that he hsd made a survey of the lot and found space for at least 90 meters which would bring
in approximately $6,500.00 annual]y, advising that the price of the meters were $56.50 each or
$65.50 installed, which coula be paid from 50% of fees received from the meters.
~fter discussion the matter was t~ken under advisement.
Dr. George H. Starke next appeared on behalf of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and ad-
vised that they were sponsoring a football game on Thanksgiving day to be played in Banford by

duct a parade. Seconded by Commissioner Chase and carried.
Mr. Robert M~ Angas of Engineering firm of Robert M. Angas and Associates, next sppearea
with further reference to the proposed sanitary sewerage and water works improvements. He re-
ported on City's application to Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency for financial assistance
under P~blic Law 139, ststing that said Agency had advised that the City woul~ be entitled to a
grant of approximately 20% of the cost of the oroJects but there were no funds left in the
Federal appropriation for such purposes.
The Commission then proceeded to a lengthy study and discussion of the proposed sewer-
age improvements, and ways and means of financing the project. Mrs. Angas submitted a pro-
pose8 sewer charge to customers of minimum of $2.00 a month for first five fixtures, .30~
each for next five, .20~ each for next lC, and .lO~ each for all over 20, which he estimated

City Commissio~ Sanford, Florida,_~?~.~_~.~r !.Z....~.~...~...~m.~.~ ........ 19...~
A. Removal of Sewage Polutlon from Vicinity of Bulkhead (including
installation of interceptor sewer along the lake to collect the
discharge from present out-fall lines and convey it to single
point into lake west of Cloud Branch) $3~0,319.50
B. Repairs to Existing Sewers 308,5~00,~
C. Extension to Existing Sewers 342,642.50
D. Construction of Con~te Box Drain in Pump Branch 225.000,0Q
TOTAL $ 1,216,507.00
Mr. Angas then submitted cost estimate of a dditional $250,000.00 for a primary treat-
merit plant which would provide 100% treatment during dry weather and only about 60% during rainy
weather because of the combination sanitary and story sewerage system. He advised that from a
heslth standpoint the treatment plant was not necessary at this time because the proposed inter-
ceptor line would eliminate any polution in the lake in front of the City, and recommended that
it be left off until the population reached seventeen or eighteen thousand.
Mayor Stemper s~ated that he would like to have the treatment plant included in the
pro.ct and believed that most of the citizens felt the same way, and recommended that it be added.
Commissioners Ivey, Chase and Kadet all stated that they would be in favor of the
treatment plant if it was necessary, but in view of the total cost of the entire project, it
would be placing too much of a debt on the citizens at this time, and they felt that the savings
in interest on investment, the maintenance, operation and depreciation cost would amount to a
sum sufficient to construct the plant at such time it is needed.
After further discussion, Commissioner Ivey moved that Engineer Angae be authorized to
proceed with preparing detail plans and speclficstions on Item A, B, C and D of the improvements
to ~he sanitary sewerage system, of which the estimated cost is $1,216,507.00.
Seconded by Commissioner Kadet and carried.
Engi~ee~ Angae next submitted plans on the proposed water works imnrovements, of
which cost estimates amounted to $329,000.00 with City owned diesel operated power and
$250,000.00 to purchase power for the wells and plant.
After discussion, action was deferred, pending information to be obtained by Engineer
Angas on cost comparison of diesel operated power with purchase power.
On motion of Commissioner Chase, seconded by Commissioner Ivey and carried, the City
Manager was next authorized to allow t he manager of the golf course the temporary use of the
City's small roller for rolling the fairways.
On recommendation of the Mayor, and on motion of Commissioner Kadet, seconded by Com-
missioner Chase and carried, Thomas A. Vaughan was next appointed aea member of the Planning
