posed water and sewer system expansion. The proposed bond is for
$100,000.00 and will provide a new well, a revamped sewerage disposal plant
and will extend the existing water mains and laterals within the existing water
district.
Mayor Gibbons suggested that since the City Council and the
Water District Board were both obligated to promote better conditions for
Pearland, that consideration should be given to providing an adequate water
supply for the future Pearland, both industrial and residential. He questioned
that a wellor wells would be able to meet Pearland's future needs., After a
lengthy discussion all agreed that a surface water supply and filtering system
should be investigated. Mr. H. C. Johnston indicated that immediate action
would be taken to provide the answers to the questions posed regarding sukface
water. Mayor Gibbons expressed appreciation to the Water Board for their
cooperation and expressed a sincere desire to work in harmony with the Water
Board and Water District personally.
