IN REPLY REFER TO:
VERNON,CALIFO~A
April 5, 194,
Honorable City Council
Cit~ of Vernon
Vernon, California
Gentle.en:
The attached requisItion for one 10-inch
Hersey P.M. .etar, to cost $1,1.20.00, is neoessary
for sara maintenance of water servioes. The meter
which this will replace has been in service more
than sixteen~ears, during which interval there
has been no substitute ..ter available to allow
for its temporary removal for repaIrs. Aa a con-
sequence, the present inatallation is no longer
capable of fully protecting the many war industrie.
which are now being served through it.
It is Ncommended. that purohase of the
new meter be approved.
Respectrully aubmitted,
