letter.- from Kraemers in which they would reaffirm their intention
to annex to the District, had to be signed by the two boards which
make up the two Kraemer Ranch Corporations, but we should have the
letter by the end of the month.
DuWayne Lidke had an aerial map that had been sent to him by the
Kraemers, upon which he had shown several locations for the
reservoir site that would be desireable from the District stand-
point. He felt it should be either a-3 or 5 million gallon re-
servoir and his feeling was that a 5 million gallon reservoir
would be best economically. District should also have a transmission
line from MWD on Valley View. Recommended that reservoir first with
preliminary planning of the transmission line, probably a 30" one.
Discussion. Moved by Director Wagner, seconded by Director Knauft
that we proceed with negotiations on the acquisition of the reservoir
site, trying to go along with Kraemer's desires and be as reasonable
as possible. Motion carried unanimously.
