The Town of <br />Hillsborough applied for an FHA loan to construct an elevated water tank <br />on the north side of town. NRCD has entered a negative finding on the <br />review because of the inadequate supply of water for this area. In a <br />meeting with Mayor Sheffield, agreement was reached that a task force be <br />formed composed of two members of each elected Board, Managers and staff <br />as appropriate to move forward with a definite plan and try to speed up <br />the process of augmentation of the Hillsborough water supply. He made <br />two suggestions for increasing water resources: (1) curtail the sale of <br />water to OWASA, and (2) extend the line to Burlington. Sheffield asked <br />that the Scotswood project be considered contingent upon a plan for <br />providing water in accordance .with the Water Resources Division. <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED <br />4.
