Intere ted as this Commission is in the entire development of Jefferson County and recongnizing that the Navy Department has abondoned its housing project at or near Hadlock, why cannot this public body enter into some contract with the City in order to provide water for what appears to us to be permanent residents of our community? The contents of this commuhication have been authorized by unanimous vote of the commission at its last meeting on June 22, 1959' Respectfully, Public Utility District No. i Linda L.
