HEDRICK: As I recall, you were sitting over here about where Ike was in a dark blue suit and
Mr. Clark and Mrs. Hansen were sitting back here about where Carrull Weber was, and the discussion
and the ultimate motion that I made was as a result o` a statement that I recall you saying. I
don't have the transcript that it would take ti substantiate this, but it is my recollection that
you said you would be willing to do whichever, septic or nitrofication, I mean nitrofication or some
sort of package facility, if somebody would tell you which they wanted done, and that it was obvious
to me that, maybe Mr. Bryan was here too, thet some assurance was given that septic or nitrofication
field would be agreeable with you, and they said something to the effect that that's fine, and my
motion, which subse^uently passed 3 to 2, stated that it is assumed, reading from the minutes of
that particular melting, whatever date that was, "MOTION from Chairman Hedrick to deny the request
for rezoning back to R-20, assuming that the developer would proceed as the building permit had been
issued, which is septic tanks for sewage disposal." And I don't recall hearing any objection from
you at that point, and that's the reason I asked at w:rat point had you decided that sanitary waste
treatment would be the better system.
HOLLAN: I'd like to ask that Miss Beckham and Mr. Deal whether they recall or have any record
of when we did come in to discuss our thoughts about sewage treatment facility. Did we not, I'm not
certain whether we met with you as a representative of the county as well. At some point, in those
early discussions, what we didn't want, we didn't want to surprise anybody and come in and put in an
application for a treatment plant. We are trying to keep everything on top of the table and not
have any misunderstandings. I don't know when it was. I certainly have some records of when we did
get together to discuss these.
HEDRICK: Mr. Deal and I had lunch wiih you and somebody else, I'm not sure which time. I
really don't remember the discussion, but I do remember that Wayne and I paid for our meal so there
wouldn't be any bribe
HOLLAN: Exactly.
HEDRICK: Which we always do.
HOLLAN: I don't know when it was. The fact is that.
HEDRICK: My point is that it appears that there is some sort of a question in my mind that
assuming that there was no argument raised on your behalf that evening that our motion was voted on
and passed that you didn't say wait a minute, we're thinking something else. That's my only
question.
HOLLAN: Well
MILLS: It WOUld seem to me that the issue here is not, is nothing more that whether we are
going to change from nitrofication fields to wastewater treatment facilities, because in my mind we
approved one thing and now you're asking that we consider changing that and approving something
else. And I'm not an attorney, so I don't know. You know, when we follow through on all these
hearings and all this special kind of testimony, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me when
really what the issue is, are we going to make a change? So I would like to proceed to the point
where we decide that.
DAVENPORT: Let me ask you just a few technical questions just so we can have more information.
Are you going to have any pump stations in regard, are you going to pump up to the sewage treatment
facility?
HOLLAN: Yes.
DAVENPORT: How many stations and where are they going to be lcoated? ---
Are you going to have somebody address all this?
HOLLAN: Yes.
DAVENPORT: O.K.
HOLLAN: Is that necessarily a part of the hearing? We haven't designed the whole system.
There would be pump stations and they would be designed according to the (not clear) proper sewage
treatment in ordinance in whatever is required.
DAVENPORT: I would hope you discuss something along that line. It would seem appropriate.
Also the timing of the facility. I hope you're going to talk about that. Whichever one you think
is appropriate to say. Anything else?
Any other questions?
Second witness, I guess?
Do you have a second witness?
WALSER: Yes, sir. Mr. Malone. For the record we would like for him to put his qualifications
into the record and let it be know to you all.
MALONE: My narac is C. D. Malone. I'm a professional engineer. I'm a certified wastewater '
treatment plant operator, certified water treatment plant operator. I have been in the environmen-
