Bill is to work as liason officer for the village with the county authorities and to assist Civil Defense if necessary. Mr. Richard Heule, address 8304 - 4th Avenue, was present at the meet- ing and asked the assistance of the village to have his landlord (Tom Anderson) turn on the water in the duplex in which he resided. He had no water or sewer accommodations and had 5 children. Mr. Anderson had turned off the water because of floodhg in the basement of the build- ing, but Mr. Heule claimed that water in the basement had been a problem ever since he moved into the dwelling last November. (Dick Anderson, the other tenant, backed up the statement about the water trouble, but obviously didn't want to start trouble with his landlord). Mr. Anderson, the proprietor of the above property, felt he was not responsible for his tenant's welfare, and stated he would only sustain further damage to his building if he allowed the sewer and water to be used. After considerable discussion, Tom Anderson agra] to turn on the water and Mr. Heule agreed to use only drinking and cooking water and use sewage facilities as little as possible until the high water had gone down. 3 The village informed Mr. Anderson they would allow him to run hoses across the road and into a ditch in order to drain off water from around the building, which kept seeping into the basement. (Tom Anderson IIseveral times voiced threats against the council if he suffered any more damage to his property by having to turn on the water.)
