MEMO TO: Louis D. Diehl, Supervisor
FROM: Matthew Ryan, Comptroller
DATE: May 24, 1979
SUBJECT: S.I. #1 Contract to fix I&I
As per your request there are two ways of funding this
project.
1) Borrowing from the Public Market - this will take
6 10 weeks from the filing of a map, plan and report -
Audit and Control approval may be necessary causing a further
delay.
2) Borrow the funds from the S.I. #1 Capital Fund -
funds to be repaid from the 1980 Budget as these are dedicated
funds.
MR. DIEHL moved that funds be borrowed from the Capital Fund of
Sewer Improvement #1, as recommended by the Comptroller and this
would be repaid from the 1980 Budget.

so expeditiously and hoped that the contract would be signed in
the very near future so that building permits would be issued and
they could commence construction.
