They will <br /> consult within the next few months with school system staff, <br /> homebuilders representatives, the municipalities, etc. He would suggest <br /> a public hearing in February, and after adjusting the format make it <br /> effective on July 1, 1992 . <br /> Commissioner Willhoit feels the real issue is how much will <br /> the market take -- how much can be assessed and the equity issue of <br /> whether or not there will be the same amount assessed on a mobile home <br /> as on a 5-bedroom home. <br /> D. OWASA OUARTERLY REPORT <br /> Lois Herring, Chair of the OWASA Board of Directors, was <br /> available to answer questions. She noted that discussions on the sale <br /> of water to Hillsborough ended late last year. OWASA currently can <br /> supply Hillsborough with 400, 000 gallons of water per day on a 7-day a <br /> week basis. The price is reasonable considering the quality of the <br /> water. Selling the pipeline to Hillsborough has never been discussed. <br /> Mayor Johnson is on the OWASA agenda for August 29. Lois Herring made <br /> additional comments about the recreational facilities for Cane Creek. <br /> They hope to start construction on phase one in the near future. <br /> VIII.
