BOOK 7 PAGE 152 <br />Therefore, I move that a copy of the above be sent to Mr. Melvin Hearn, State <br />Director of the Farmer's Home Administration, and to the Board of Directors of <br />Orange-Almaance Water System, Inc. and that upon acceptance by Orange-Alamance <br />Water L?Stem, Inc. that the above represents the understanding between them and the <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners that we approve the current expansion of <br />Orange-Alamance Water System, Inc, for which the Farmer's Home Administration has <br />given a loan. <br />Commissioner Ray seconded Commissioner Smith's resolution. <br />Chairman Bennett asked if there was any discussion relative to Commissioner <br />Smith's resolution. Mayor Cates asked each of the Allermen present if there <br />were any comments they wished to make. No member of the Hillsborough Board of <br />Aldermen expressed their approval of the proposal by the Orange-Alamance Water <br />System, Inc, which would extend its services to the Swepsonville area. They <br />expressed the opinion that the letter and agreement addressed to the Orange County <br />Board of Commissioners from the Orange-Alamance Water System, Inc, offered more <br />protection to the Town of Hillsborough than had been previously offered by the Orange- <br />Alamanoe Water System, Inc. <br />Mayor Cates stated that he was personally disappointed over the fact that <br />the Orange-Alamance Water System, Inc.'s proposed plan did not provide for a water <br />connection to the Hillsborough water system. Further discussion ensued. <br />Chairman Bennett called for a vote on Commissioner Smith's resolution. <br />Ayes: Commissioners Smith, Ray, Walker and Ward. <br />Noes: Chairman Bennett <br />Chairman Bennett declared the motion passed. <br />There being no further business to come before the meeting the Board adjourned <br />to meet again on Thursday, November 14, 1968 at 2:30--P.M. <br />Harvey D.
