J-U-B Engineers, Inca ,250 S. Beechwood Avenue Boise, Idaho 83705 Dear Mr. Wright Following the .meeting of June 4, 1979x. with the mayor and city council of` Meridian, Dort, Leavitt of Nu .Pacific Company, and your partner of J-U-B Engineers, it has become apparent to me that this is the appropriate time to confirm in writing a number of understandings and circumstances that have. been discussed in this meeting and previously. First, and most urgently, is the necessity that we get screens for the water pumps. As you know, Baldoch in- stalled those pumps too. deep below the water level in the pumping pits, and, as you know, I had to constantly bail water out of the pits. Therefore, it was necessary to raise the pumps as you said you would do last autumn. However, they were not raised until mid-April before the water came- n. As you advised, when they were raised you would install the screens.' In order to get water for irrigation we had to commence watering immediatly even without the screens, and you promised us adequate screens, would be installed on April 14, the day before the `water came in. We s+,ill do not have adequate screens installed. Until June 2 there still were no screens whatsoever; on that date there was a temporary- orie-inch mesh screen installed which is completely inade- quate to keep the trash out of the-pumps. We have had nq .choice-but to operate these pumps since mid-April and live in daily fear that they would burn up. We.'re.doing the best we can in that'. Every four`hours'our employees are crawling into the pump pit to clean it up by harid. The cleaning up involves the removal of residue that could, enter the pumps. We wll'install a temporary door. screen on the-orie-,inch mesh as a stop gap measure until you install adequate screens. We need immediate installation of these screens as you agreed to two weeks ago when we all talked with Lloyd McKay at the clubhouse. r .,,.., i ~, i ~ ~_ -~ ~ ~ ..~. ..... ., ~;1 • w - --------- - _,_ - _--- - Next, there are a number of specific items we have s:greed that should be taken care cf'right away: 1. A building to house the pumps and electY'cal panel is needed.. This area is susceptible to vandalism ,and needs your attention at once. 2. Electrical wiring is malfunctioning and needs immediate attention so as to insure proper watering of the-golf course.. 3. Access to bridges needs to be completed. These require rebuilding constantly due to wash out from sprinklers. 4. All sprinkler heads which are. inadequate for area need to be replaced, as damage to personal property surrounding. golf course is a constant problem. Your attention to these problems at once wih.be greatly appreciated. ,5-iYiae~.ely; ,., ~, l ~%~ ,~.~,. Rich Stanwood, Pro -- -- _ _~ \\ ~,~_ ,~ ,_ ~~ ~:~_ ~,3~ ~.
