Majority carried. Road and Bridge Report: (Read by Mr. Wetz in the absence of Mr. Brown.) On May 6th, I received permission from the state Road Department to erect a "NO PARKING WITHIN 20FT. OF HYDRANT" sign by the hydrant at the corner of Hiway 434 and North Fairfax. On the 13th and 28th, the rightaways were cut on all the paved streets within the Village (5~ hours with the Village tractor. On the 28th we had one small accident while cutting grass on Flamingo Ave. The mower hit a stack of concrete blocks that some one had put on the parkway and threw small pieces into the street, and possibly hitting a car owned by ~~. Thomas Munday. This has been reported to the insurance company and they will look into the matter. Out of six companys that I wrote to about additional street signs and material, I received five replys back: r r" - --. PACE 2 J'(Jl..\'E 6, 1966 Dave Caldwell Winter Park quotated $292.30 less the sign, paint and stencil. John Warren, Mobile, Alabama -------$265.25 complete. Sargent and Sowell, Inc.-------------21.5.00 less the IINo Parking Sign". I had left this item off the list to them because I had not received word from the State Road Department at the time. This sign should not cost over $14.00, so I would like to recommend we order from this company. Municipal Supply & Sign Corp, Naples, Fla. quotated $377.54 less the stencil kit and I believe the paint they quotated us is not what we want. Leonard Saine of Orlando quotated $237.50 less the sign paint and stencil kit. All dirt roads are in very bad shape and need grading. We have written a letter to Mr. John Alexander of the County Commission to see what the misunderstanding is about the use of the road grader in the small Villages on week-ends. I have asked Mr. Wetz to follow-up on this for me while I am in North Carolina. In a report from Mr. John llexander, Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners of Seminole County, Mr. Alexander reported that it wasn't the Village alone that had been denied the use of the County Equipmer:t. The . County Auditor said that a tighter rein had to be put on the equ~pment and ~t would be at least a couple of weeks before it could be released. The roads are in sad shape after all the hard rain, but the roads will have to wait until we get the use of the county equipment. In answer to a question about the loggers tearing up the roads, Mr. Brown has requested the town clerk to find out the name of the logging Company and send them a letter asking them to please grade the roads after they have finished.
