The amount billed for saaitation was subsequently ad- justed by the Sanitary Inspector and has been n aideach month less the old balance of $4.50. The amount shown for Tommy Griffith is the amounts billed for June, July and August of 1958. Apparently an understanding was reached at that time and a monthly charge of $1.75 h been paidFach month since then but not the old balance of $3.75. A meter was installed at 9110 S. 10th Ave. in November of 1959 but prior to this only sewage and garbage were billed. The property is owned by A. L. Brueck and occupied at the time the arrears were accumulated by Gordon Stanley. This was for the months of January, February and March of 1959 and the m -ter is presently disconnected. The account in the name of Florence Lee consists of reduced billings ($0.75 monthly) for a part of May, for June, July and August of 1958. At that time she was entirely ex- empted from charges but has refused to pay the previous balance of $2.85. The property of Roy G. Davis at lo23 N. 7th Ave. has not had service andaccording to Mr. Sweet, the lady occupying the residence is entitled to exemption and would be exempted except that he hasn't been able to obtain the required statement. /a/ John L.
