The monthly report of the treasurer was considered.and filed.on motion of
Messrs.Baldwin and Lea.
The report of the auditor for the first half of the year was considered and
received.on motion of.Messrs.Stuart and Bunn.
Mr.Bunn for the w.w.committee reported;,.we reaemmend that the price of water tQ
commercial users not already covered by previous agreements be ten cents per thous
and gallons for the first hundred thousand~and the remainder at 7 cents per thous
and gallons,accounts to be rendered monthly and 5% penalty added to overdue accoun1
and that this claise be retroactive to April lst.l937.Whereas Aurora has.a suff-
icient supply of water under present conditions 0 and whereas 75% of this supply
comes from one sourae.whiah source could be seriously affected from causes beyond
any human control, .rf such a thing j;J.appened during a hot period such as we have
experienced this summer it wpuld be a calamity to Aurora;therefore we recommend
that test work for a further water supply be commenced in the very near future.
The council resolved !into committee of the whole to consider the report.The camm
itte rose and presented the repart,amended as above.
STUART BUNN that the report of thenw.works committee be adopted as amended. Carri
It was definitely agreed that payment for the Mech.Hall must be made when the
order is accepted.and that failure to pay the rent voids the engagement of the hall

se.On motion of Messrs Stuart and Lee the clerk was instructed to write and protest
