•"rY° Gentlemen: 'I {
As you will recall, we have been carrying an item in our budget for several year
for the re -surfacing of the big reservoir. It is getting to the stage where it needs Y

repairing badly and I am asking the Council for authority to go ahead with this proje
Ft'iirr,-�i;x.Sk, �. •{ _; It has been delayed in the past mainly becuase of the shortage of -labor and _
