The Bible Glvel UI The Belt Rulel

POI HumQn BehQvlol People have always been the some, despite

all our modern technology, and we are still subject to the some frailties and temptations as always.

However, today, those whose lifestyles represent the utmost in immorality are not condemned, but ore often paraded as guests on TV talk shows! Moreover, many believe that those who engage in criminal behavior are not responsible for their own actions, because they were abused as children, or else because society is somehow to blame.

We need a return to faith and the teaching of moral values and responsibility in the home. The Bible can give a much-needed refresher course in the rules for a good life.

Contnctll have yet to beeiped but the New neal City Council il proc:eedinir with conftdence that the city will be able to buy the city of Slaton' I exce .. water.

During Monday'_ regular meet­in" the council diacu888d financ· ing the projeet with Scott Mann of Caprock Capital Corporation. Hil company will be New Deal'. fi· nancial advilor in illuing $800,000 in certificatea of obliga. tion.

The city will repay the CO's in semi·annual payments over 20 years. Mann's company will be paid $16,760.

There are still no contracta signed between the cities of New Deal, Slaton and Lubbock. The draft. is still in Lubbock's legal department.

The plan is to build a watsr tower and pipeline south to Lub­bock International Airport. New Deal will connect to Lubbock's treated water supply and pur· chase water that Slaton can not use but has to pay for.

The airport authority is pro· ceeding as iUhe deal will be final· ized in the near future . The au­thority is preparing to advertise for bids for engineere, Mann said. Their plan ia to build a water pipeline to the northwest area of the airport where New Deal will tap the line for a supply.

With the delays in securing a contract between the citiea, New Deal officials do not expect to have the water supply available for next summer's increased demand.

In other busineaa, Nancy Obenhaus thanked the council for straightening out her road. She asked if the council could apply a -topping" to the road, move a dumpster back from the road and do some work on the road where It meets the highway.

Action on a requot by John Ford for a aewer line exteneion W81 tabled. Utility lupervieor Chief Sam Butler eltimated the coat of a sewer line at $85,000 to $40,000. That would be more than the city could afford,Mayor HalT)' Ford laid.

Attorney Jean Shotts pre· sented a draft of a new law de· signed to protect the city from sexually oriented bUline'lel within the city limits.

The city needs to protect itself from having a busineBS like this come in near the new truck atop, Shotts told the council.

No action was taken on that or a zoning change for the property where the new truck ltop il being built. The consideration is chang· ing the property from heavy in· dustrial to commercial.

Shotts can ule the zoning change with the sexually oriented business law to restrict such a busine88's encroachment into the city.

In departmental reports, But· ler asked the council if they wanted to file criminal charges against a former employee that allegedly misused city property. The council voted against filing charges.

Butler hired a new employee that will atart Nov. so.

Butler also asked the council if they wanted to charge Dove Tree Ranch $600 to $600 for water meter parts that had to be reo placed. Butler contended thatex· C88sive wear, tuming the meter offand on,caused the meter to fail on the city'aside. The council voted against charging Dove Tree Ranch any COlt for parte.

The council did approve spend· ing $800 for a dry auit. The luit

will be fttted to Butler. He will wear it whenever he ie making water liDe repaira and h88 to be in water during the winter monthl.

The Ta81 Natural Resource Conaervation Commileion made two inlpectione of the water de· partment. The 88COnd inapection W88 to _ if violationa were cor· rected. They had been corrected.

Butler will be making customer aervice inlpactiona. That means that water cuatomers that have aervice interrupted for any rea· son will be inapected for backf10w prevention devices before the water il turned on.

ButJercan be contacted at New Deal City Hall for further infor­mation about customer compli­ance.

Before adjourning, council membera voted to purchase a copy· fax·printer machine from Tascoaa Office Producta. The city will pay the $4,995 coat in three install­ments to avoid financing charges.
