Supervisor vIcCulloch informed the members of the Board that
he had received a request for water supply for fire protection from
property* owners in the Homnocks Section. He pointed out that part
of the section is included in Fire , Lighting and VNa.ter Supply District
No. 1 and that the owners are paying taxes for this service.
Following some discussion the Board decided to request Town
Attorney Delius to arrange an agreement between the Larchmont Water '
Company and the Town of iviamaroneck for the rental of hydrants in the
Horrmocks Section, the agreement to be presented to the Town Board for
final action at a later date .
Councilman I'deginniss stated that some time ago the Fire
Council was authorized to secure bids and/or estimates for the repair
or reconditioning of the pumper. He presented the following letter
received from iVm. V. McCarthy, Jr. , Chief of the Fire Department:
September 259 1939
Honorable Bert C. mcCulloch
Town Offices
158 V'Jest Boston Post Road
Mamaroneck, New York
Dear h!r, ldcCulloch:
At a meeting of the Fire Council held on Monday, September 21,
1939, T was instructed to forward to your Board the estimate received
from the American La France and Foamite Corporation for repairs to
E'nPine #,`1, together with copies of replies from other Fire Apparatus
Manufacturers. The Fire Council directed me to point out that the
total cost of the above bid amounts to $2,130. 86, exclusive of the cost
of new tires at approximately J300. 00 and the charges of mechanic' s
helper and an adequately equipped garage in which said work is to be
done. I was further directed to advise your Board_ that the Fire Coun-
cil does not believe that these proposed repairs which will not change
the construction or design of this piece of apparatus that was built
over twenty years ago, will overcome inherent defects in this appara-
tus.
x
The Fire Council further feels that the contemplated. ex-
penditures of the money is unwise and impracticable and will not
insure that life and safety of the apparatus will be increased.
The Fire Council also wishes to inform your Board that in
addition to ordinary maintenance costs almost V4, 000.00 was spent
in 1931 to recondition said apparatuz.
Enclosed are the bid and copies of the letter referred to
above, and if there are any questions that I may answer, please do
not hesitate to call upon me.
Very truly yours,
( signed) W. V. McCarthy, Jr.
Chief
Enclosures
