Director Robinson moved, seconded by Director Invoices
Anthony and carried unanimously:
BX IT OmEmD that the Invoices for June, 19549 in 54-81 the mount of $27,862,14 be apPrcved*
President Hagen then asked Xr. Irwin Kelly to take VY'akr on
Pinstocked the floor, which he did, Stating that he wants to get Land
water on sone Y stocked land loczted in Section 32,
Nr, Trygg stated that any meter installed would have to be
at the end of our pipeline, The inclusion fee will be either $70.
or $100 per share, depending on the exact location of the land. The
Directors agreed that it was not necessary to vote on the matter,
but that Nr. Kelly would be entitled. to water after he had made
the necessary stock appurtenant to the land, paying required charges.
The Chairman then called upon Shareholder iMcClellan who
presented a proposal for the renewal of the General Insurance
Liability Policy, stating that due to the satisfactory experience
with our Company, he had secured a reduction in premium. He
proposed that this policy be put into a Comprehensive fcrm which .
would include automobile insurance also,

Billy C. Fry, President of the Board. of Directors of the
Carlsbad 3iunicipal Water District then entered the meeting,
Insurance Director Roge-ss stated that there should be Cont iped coverage of the contractural liability of the
Compaay to the Carlsbad Municipal Water District,
Director Rogers then moved, seconded by Director

Terramar The aianager read a letter frbm the Terramar 1Tate.r Water Company Company to the Carlsbad Municipal Water District
dated July 15, 1954, and the Chairman stated that
the matter was opeh for discussion.
Director Ingels stated that some of the shareholders
were asking why anyone should receive water cheaper than they,
who own and pay for the transmission and other facilities,
Director Anthony said that me do not expect to make
any money through the transmission of water to Terramar,’ but
that he cannot see why we should lose money by it, It would L)
devaluate our stock, should people think that they can get the
water cheaper through some other organization. Shareholders
are not willing to pay heavy assessments and then see someone
else mho does not bear that burden at all get water cheaper
through our facilities.
Shareholder UcClellan then ieft the meeting,
Mr. Swirsky, representing Terramar, then took the
.- . 282 bf
floor and stated that they want to attempt to get water, but can,
only go SO high and then it becomes impracticable to get any
water at all, He stated that they had come to the Boa'rd ivieeticg
to try to decide on a:figureagreeabbe to both parties, No o,ye
knorvs how much water is going to come into the area or how much
it is gbing to cost the Carlsbad kiutual Water Company to get it,
Director Anthony called his attention to the fact that this
is simply a temporary measure; will probably only last a year,
or at the most, two years.
Mr. Fry, President the Carlsbad Idunicipal Water Distsict,
stated that he hgd. gone ov.er these figures with Director Rogers
and c'hecked very closely, and feels that these figures that the
MutuaL" has decided upon are honest and justified, He thinks both
Companies are justified in their positions and that it is betweem
Terramar and the Carlsbad Xu-tual Water Company to work out a com-
promise. He stated that he, as President of the Carlsbad ltiiunicipal
Water District, would. like to see a satisfactory answer worked outo
Director Robinson stated that he does not believe anyone on
the Board is qualified to get to the correct costo A Cost
Accountant €s the ojnly one who can lay down what is the true cost
of transmission of water. If ne hme a Cost Accountant, we will
have a true picture, He believes that the rebate system is just,
Attorney" T. Bruce Smith then entered the meeting,
Director Robinson moved, seconded by Director Anthony and
carried unanimously:
BE IT ORDERED that we amend paragraph #1 of ow 54-82 letter to the Terramar Water Cornpany to state th2.t the $1500 d'eposit is to be adjusted to lo$, of the actual cost of connecting to the Oceanside line and the chlorinator, and the cost of a survey made by a.n Accountant to determine the true distribution cost of the water which will go to Terramar.
0 -r 3 &&
Mr. Porter of Everts & Esenoff then entered the meeting,
The Chairman stated to UT. Porter that ve were
interested $n trying to get the cost of transmission of Colorado
Hiver Water Prom California Street, Oceanside, to where Terramar
would probably connect with our Line. That we want the actual
cost, as the Board of Directors wants to charge that amount.
airector Robinson inquired approximately how much a
cost survey like Yt will cost.
.. - !w. Porter stated that he thopught two or three days
tias would be all that would be required to do this.
Terramar Water Cornpaw feels, said Ur. Swirsky, that
they should not be charged for the entire ntransrnission system.
Their answr to this proposition can only be in the negative.
Director 3ogers suggested that we'divlde the trans-
mission costs, using
All of Reservoir $1 Cost 1/2 of Reservoir #2 It 1/2 of Keservoir #3 If l/3 of Calavera Lake Chlorination Cost
as a basis foT figuring on transnission of water for Terramar.
Director Anthony agreed with this method of figuring
but stated.that he will g0 no further.
Director lngels said that whenever-you try to reduce
the cost below what it costs the shareholder, he says "n0."
Attorney Swirsky then stated tha.t this method is just
going to ?lace Terramar in su.ch position that they cannot afford
to. take water,
Mr. Cannon and Ur, Swirsky then left the meeting,
Financial Director Rogers moved, seconded by Director Robinson Report
54-84 BE IT OW3RED that the Financial Report for the
and carried unanimously:
month of June, 1954, be accepted as presentedo

The Manager brought up the matter of extraord-inary Municipal Water
Extra-
Expense
costs .due to damage to the chlorinator, located in North District
Carlsbad, which is owned by the Carlsbac? JXutual Water ordinary
Conpamy and operated by the Clty of Oceanside, These costs
the Uunicipal has refused to pay,
Director Robinson suggested that the Company tvrlte a letter
to the Ddunicipal District and po9at out the cause and what the
cost was) and. make aB effort to recover,
The Ilanager then inquired who is to pay for the bottled Bottled Water
’ water being given to users in the San Luis Bey who are above
the chlorinator, an6 the Directors agreed that the Uutua.2 is
to pay for it,
The Xanager stated th3.t the Company had paid the power Pover on Chlorinator bills for the chlorinator, which should be prorated with
the City of Oceanside. Director Rogers suggested that the
Nanager include this matter in the letter to the District,
The Xanager then read a letter from the City sf Ocean- Water Delivery
Oceanside side regarding the Uutual deliverlrg water in the City of for
Oceanside to some of their residents in the North Carlsbad
area. The Manager stated that the letter did not include all
of the residents of Oceanside in the North Carlsbad area who
are being served by usc The letter only included those on one
side of the street. In most casBs, the pipelines are such that
Oceanside cannot get to them directly.
Director Rogers called attention to the fact that these
people are in the Carlsbad lilunlcipal Water District, and if they
a-mex to Oceanside, they will belong to two different Districts,
The law provides that they shall pay taxes to the District which
gives then the water. The only gain they will ge2 fron Pnnexation
225
is in the matter of subdivision, These peopls will have to pay
thedr share of the organization expense of the Carlsbad Iaunici-
pal District. ?!e should not be arbitrary in answering Oceaaside
but there is the question of taxation for the Cistrict, and also
the fact that it is manifestly &fair that a person on one side
of a street should pay one price and the fellow across the
street pay something different for water from the sane pipelines,
"*
One of the Directors suggested that it might be
possible tc work out some arrangement whereby the City of
Oceanside could take over sections of our pipeline that would
be supplying their people, Ee would be pleased to consider
their suggestions, The facilities still belong to "the Mutual,
but we would be willing to sell. them to Oceanside,
Director Robinson moved, seconded by Director
Anthony and carried unanimously:
54-44 BZ IT 03DERED that the Xanager and Presidefit are
instructed and directed to write a letter to the City of Oceanside suggesting such an arrangement,
Amendment The Manager stated that the Directors had received to K?lles L? Regulations a copy of his report dated July 15, 1954 as follows:
Gianager's "Enclosed is a report on past and present policies Keport conce,rning pipeline extensions.
"As you can see from the report, this is a very important factor in the operation of the CO~J, -1 mny For that reason, I a,m submitting this report to you now in order that you. may take proper action at the Board Ueeting on July 20th,
"A proposed addition to Hules & Begulations #4 is also enclosed for your consideration and action,
"This report and proposed addition to Eules and 3egulations have been checked by Attorney T. 3ruce Suit3 and. by Everts ij, Esenoff in order that you may have the best facts available. (Signed) C. E, TI-IYGG Secretary-Xanager .ft

ftWPOEiT TO THE BOAHI
* OF DIrnCTO3S
ItInasmuch as the Board" of Directors recently has adopted a standard. pipeline agreement form, and inasmuch as several share- holders have paid substantial amounts 03 money to the Company for installation of facilities under such agreements, it was thoaght that an investigation of past policies of the Board would be in order, Until tgis time, I have been unable to make such a study due to the unsatisfactory filing of material in the past, However$.with the completion of our new filing system, such information became readily availablee Therefore I wish to submit tQ you the foblowing report, and trust that it will enable you to make a definite policy. for pipeline extensions in the future so that all Shareholders may be treated alike,
II During the period from 1926 to 1934, there are approximately 30, pipeline agreements of which we have record.. These pipeline agreements in most cases provide for the extension of a piipeline to serve a specific shareholder. In most cases, these pipelines were designed to serve only the specific shareholder named in the agreement.. In one:case in 1929, there was a large development which took place in the Thwn Lands and Bella Vista Tract. In this agreement? the shareholder paid! for facilities which were adequate to serve the entire arear No portion of any water stocked land was omitted, In all the above contracts, we find the follow- ing statements:
"'Eirst Isart?? (i.ea Jiater Cornnany) agrees to constru at the cost and exwnse of second sa_rty (amlicant) water lines as indicated. After the comDletion of sinch water -oiDelines. first parts aprees to maintain the same at its own egpense and in a condition that will "- enable water to be trgnsported t-wh the same, *
llFr~~ that %ime on, through a portion of the Second Tiorld War, there appears to have been no pipeline agreements consmated. In 1944, %e find several pipeline agreements, In these agreements, we find again that the pipeline in most cases was designed to serve only the property 02 The shareholder paying for such a pipe- line 8
fig few years later, ne find agreements in which the shareholder paid for a specific size pipe and in which:the Company at its own expense installed a much larger"pipeline, In these cases, it is to be assumed that the Conpany anticipated that a larger pipeline would be needed to serve the area. A search or" the records of payments by shareholders from that time until now seems to indicate that other shareholders adjacent to the above pipelines were allowed to connect to the pipeline without payment of any pipeline fee to the Company, or without any refund of costs to the original share- holders.
!'In 1950, 3.953. and 1952, we find there were several agreements for substantial pipeline extensions. In these cases, the shareholders paid entirely for a system which at that time vas considered tQ meet
QpIT Ldd -
the minimw specifications for such pipelines, After that, period, there came a series of pipelir,e agreements in which a definite POJ-icY an extensions seemed. to be lacking. During this period, pipelines were in a range of sizes from 3/4" to @I for which the sha.reh.olders paid from 96 a foot to 69t a foot for the 811, and up to $2.31 for a 4" line. In the case of the 8" line, the shareholders concerned were obligated to put up a total of $370. out Of 8 t&al estimated cost of $1,724.25. There being no Other record. of paplent, it is preswned that the shareholders of the Company paid the difference in cost. In general, we again find the statement quoted above in which the Comgany 5s obligayed tQ maintain the pipelhe in such a cond-ition that water can be conducted through same.
"1x1 1953 alzd 1954, theye were several pipeline agreements in which the shareholder paid either the entire cost of a standard line designed to serve the arez, or his proportionate cost of such a pipeline, In cases"tirhere the entire cost 1va.s borne by the share- holder, provisions were made for him to recover a portion of the cost if additional consumers were to"uti1ize the facilities, In the case of a shareholder paging only his proportionate share of the cost, the Cozlrpany recordts provide that other shareholders desiring sehice from that pipeline pay their proportionate share of the cost of the pipelir,e when service is requested. This policy appears to be in keeping with the established- operations of other water agencies.

lll. An investigation of the history of the Corapany appears to indicate that the Company was formd as a Xutual Watezl Company and that money was derived for construction of the system by the sale of stock. This original system was designed by a well known engineer and"was obviously designed tc permit service to be obtained- by hold-ers of the stock of the Company at that time, It appears later tha-t; as the area served chacged location, that dis- tribution pipelines were installed at the expense of the share- holders requesting such'facilities. It was not the ictent of the Compalzy to inst2.11 such facilities at the expense of the share- holders in general. This policy of an area providing its own distribution facilities at no cost to the Co,.:,pa.ny as a whole is * a. generally accepted practice in most City Water Departments? iduniciFal Water Districts, Irrigation Districts, Public Utility Districts and Xutual Eater Coapanies.
"2. In the majority of the cases in question, it w~s the intent of the agreement for the pipelhe proposed to serve a. speci- fic amount of land.
"3, In many cas'es, the pipeline installed was located in the street, and land was adjacent which was not served. by the pipe line in that street, After the installation of the pipeline; such shareholders a,s were adjacent to the pipeline were allovfed to connect to the pipeline without paperat of aray moneys to the shareholder who had the original'line installed, or to the Company
’”> 7 - d ijj 3
to install the pipelines required for the additional load. This resulted in the Corr:pauly replacing pipelines out of the money derived from assessments, to provide service to land which had not participated directly in the cost of the distribution line,
114. The lack of a d-efinite policy in nriting has resulted in the, Company expending tens of thousands of dollars to re- place pipelines which at .the present the. are inadeauate, It is believed in the majority of these cases9 the inadequacy of the pipeline $s due to the Tact that the line w8.s dasfgned to serve a limited area, and at a Later date additional consumers were added without paymat to the Company to provid.e for the replacement of the pipeline, Due to the status of the fiilutual Water Company in which all sharehold-ers should be treated alike, and due to the present condition of the Company in which nunrer- ous pipelines must be replaced, it could be contended that a31 shareholders were not treated alike, 7,
WheTeas the CoEpany nov finds itself in a position in which numerous pipelines need replacement, and. where the funds for such replacements have been coming mostly from assessments, it is recomended that the Board make every effort to colPect the cost of the distribution lines from the shareholders which logically should pay for sucG lines,
“There are also,nmerous areasj namely those listed on the attached sheet, in which there is land which is not waterstocked, but which is adjacent to distribution lines of the Company. In many cases, these piFelines are of inadequate size and could not take the additional load represented by the unstocked land and would require replzcement,
llRECO~iED~TIOIVS :
fil. That the Board adopt an amendnent to the Bules and Regulations providing for a definite policy for installation of distribution faci$ities, Such a proposed amnendaent is attached,
lt2. STANDARD COiEECTION FEE: That the Board adopt a Resolution stating that a connection fee when charged will be based upon the front footage charge, such charge to be deter- mined to be $1.50 per front foot for distribution lines for the year 1954.
- ”DISCUSSION ~ OF‘ PROPOSED A.hEIJ”D&La
‘‘Under A. (a> This paragraph provides for the apportion- ment of the cost of transmission facilities to an area* In the- case of a %utua.lIiate-s Company, this can be partially provided for by an inclusion fee. Such an inclusion fee is now in effect in several areas of the Mutual, and amounts to from $70.00 to $lOO,OO per share,’
(b) Under this‘ article , our standard pipeline agreeulent form which was adopted several months ago should prove adequate. Due to the present finmcial status of the Company, it is
..
209
recommended that the entire cost of the pipeline be collected from the applicant, and that the Company not be forced into the position of contributing to the cost of such a pipeline or waiting to recover moneys advanced by the Company.
"(c) This article provides for a connection fee from all applicants for service on such lands as have not been a contributor directly to the cost of construction of distribu- tion lines but are adjacent to distribution lines. Such connection fee should be sufficient to cover the cost of a standard distribution line to serve their property. Such a cost could probably be collected either at the time of transfer of the water stock or upon application for water service, This step alone would enable the Company to recover approximately $40,000 , 00 .
"(d) As of December, 1953, the Company has adopted standard spefickations for proposed lines and facilities, and it is thought that such specifications are in keeping with good practice. Respectfully submitted
(SIGHED) C. E, TRYGG
Secretary-Manager .It
The Manager further stated that Attorney T. Bruce Smith checked
the proposed amendment and he and7Ur. Porter are here to talk
the matter over with the Directors. Adoption of the proposed
amendment would result in the collection of approximately
-835,000 in additional revenue for the Company.
Director Hogers suggested that there should be some clause
under tldll which would protect the Company from loss in case
someone does not pay. The by laws should specifically state
that the Company does not have to collect the items,
One of the Directors then inquired what procedure was
necessary to change the Rules and Regulations, The Manager
replied that the Board could do so) as the Rules and Regulations
may be changed without vote of shareholders, whereas the By-Laws
cannot.

The Nanager stated that in the San Luis Bey River, San Luis Bey Wells we have throttled #5- Booster Station and are using the
wells which have the logest chloride content in order that the
