Discussion ensued concerning complications which have arisen in the developme of the Water Systems, Inc. Mr. Perry reported the Water Systems, Inc. had reduced the size of its proposed lake, which was to have included one hundred acres, but now estimated to include thirty-two acres. This was done in order to enable the lake to be contained within boundaries exceptable to the adjoining land owners. D to the fact that the Water Systems, Inc. lake will be smaller than the originally planned lake both representatives expressed concern about the presence of the proposed Lake Orange reservoir several miles above their proposed lake and reservoir. Mr. Perry expressed the opinion that the Federal Home Administration officials might view the Orange-Alamance Water Systems, Inc. project with more favor if the Lake Orange project was in existence as the Water Systems, Inc. need for a larger reservoir would be perhaps lessened. The Board advised Mr. Forrest and Mr. Perry that they collectively and individually were supporting the proposed Lake Orange project and the Water-Sewer Bond election. They requested the assistance of Mr. Forrest and Mr. Perry in helping to assist with the passage of said election. Both of the representatives stated that they would do what they could to assist the project.
