COMMUNICATIONS
From Port Townsend Garden Club Oct. 21, 1964 to -wit:
Honorable "Mayor and Councilmen
City of Port Townsend
Port -Townsend, Vlashngton
Gentlemen:
The Port Townsend Garden Club has completed the landscaping at the city entrance and swishes
to officially withdraw from further responsibility in this regard. This is in agreement wit
the original understanding. Sze are, however, willing to aid in such activities as are agreed
upon in the event of further developments.
l7e scold like to call to your attention that vie hnvo expanded $650. in this venture. It svolld
bo disappointing generally to have the development handicapped by lack of care. In this
instance a serious water shortage is the critical issue. It would be advisable to check
the current inadequate facilities for delivering water because of the joint- usage of the
private line vinich is only a temporary arrangoment and highly inefficient.
By action of the club members, w:i are available for noriodic special cleanup work parties in
anticipation of special days of celebration in the community.
Sincerely,
Billie J. Carter. Secretary
Port Townsend Garden Club
A:'ter some discussion on ways and means of getting water to the entrance sign, it was
suggested by Councilman Lindsey to contact Crown Z to see if they would object to the city
tapping their line for water. Ilayor Sullivan asked the water committee to contact 'Mr. Ziel.
