one man hour.

4. On the 20th, I lettered the street sign posts on South Fairfax and

to be cut down before this post can be finished.

Fire Chief LaFollette would like to thank all residents for their cooperation
during the dry spell. We had no fires in our area.
}^'a'. Lloyd Brown showed a so called "toy' that Mr. Hage, of the North
Orlando Store, is selling. It is evident that Mr. Hage is not aware of the
danger of this toy. It resembles a book of matches and part of it is matches
and the rest of it is supposed to be the toy, but very dangerous for children
to have. The Fire Department will contact }~. Hage and ask him to please remove
the said toy from his shelves, before some child is hurt.
Finance Report (Mr. l-1cIntosh conveyed a request through Mr. Fuller, since
he was unable to attend the meeting.) Mr. McIntosh requested that 25% of any
revenue that was left over and above the expenditures would go into a Building
Fund. Motion was made by Mr. L. Brown that 2,% of any revenue left over and
above, the expenditures would be put into the Building }"und. Seconded by Mr.
G. Brown. The motion was defeated. This matter will be discussed at the
work-shop and brought up at the next Special or Regular meeting.
Flashers are needed for the School Signa and Mr. L. Brown said that they
;- would be purchased by the Road and Bridge before school starts again.
The present Garbage Contract is to expire on June 30th. Mr. Chet Macek
of C and M Refuse was present and said that he had sent a letter to the Village.
I had not been received, but Mr. Macek had brought a copy of the letter. (Letter
was received today, the 6th.) The letter expressed wishes to continue service
for another year. The question of the performance was brought up, since Mr.
Macek had never fulfilled that part of the contract. Hany complaints had been
received in the beginning, but from all reports the service is satisfactory now.
Motion was made by Mr. Rowell that the contract not be renewed since l>1r. Macek
had not given a performance bond and Hr. Rowell felt that the Council should. not
subject the people of the Village to an inci&ent such as the one that took
place in 1966, when the garbage was not picked up for almost a month. Seconded
by Mr. G. Brown for matter of discussion. Discussion WaS held both pro and con.
an Roll Call Vote, Rowell, Yes, Mr. G. Brown and Hr. L. Brown, No.' The motion
lost due to lack of majority vote.
The payment of $250.00 cash or a bond was discussed. A new contract will
have to be written. 110tion was made by 11r. Gerry Brown that a New contract be
drawn up with the only change being, Item 11, and that should be changed to
$2;b.. cash. Second by Hr. L. Brown. A discussion was held and then both the
motion and the second Has wi thdra:wn.

cash be posted. Seconded by Mr. L. Brown. On Roll Call Vote, Brown, Yes;
,-.., Brmm, Yes; and Rowell, No. Majority carried.
