Jupiter in the Pines was anxious to get FHA approval of their develop-
ment and that a sewage disposal and treatment plan* was a pre - requisite
to obtaining this approval. He suggested that Village council should give
consideration to purchasing and operating the plant after it had been
put into operation and operated for a period of two(2)year s by the
developer . Method of purchase to be some arrangement agreeable to
both parties concerned. It was the feeling of council that the developer

wiibh them in this venture because village could not control payment
of water bills unless they owned the water company.
