Calif, Supplementing »y letter of July 81st, in which I stated I would advise y m farther as eoon as decision was received from the Publie Service Oommisaion of fiavada la the ease of Jake Beekley re. Las Yogas Land and later company concerning our refusal to furnish him with water in Block BH* of the Park Addition, looated outside the limits of our water maimsi ' * Decision has sow been reached by the Commission, and I am pleased to enclose herewith for your information and file a oopy of their findings* as well ae the order whieh they issued and whloh wae made a part thereof. le are very well pleased with the deelelon. At ftret glance It would appear that we lost the ease, inns-muoh as we are ordered to aerre Beekley with water. But you will note that while we are required to serve him, Beekley must advenes the oost of these mains. le would be required to refund to him $5 per cent of his water bills oyer a period of five yeare, after which the mains become the property of the water company. But estimate for labor and material required to Install these mains amounts to #1030.35$ in return for which Beekley would receive refunds totalling #303.50 over the five year period, and the mains would become cur property. the main advantage to the later Oomioaay in the decision just handed down, is that we now have a definite basis to work from when similar requests are received for extensions of water aervies outside the limits of our pres-sni mains* In each of these instances that may occur in ths future, the applicant will be required to advance the W.
