"ROLL CALL: Tomeo, absent; King present; Berry absent; Hudrock, present; IX>ndelinger present; Perrella, present. Mayor Caranci opened the meeting and recognized Allen C. Neill who was applying for a new license for Twin Light Tavern. His application was reviewed by Paul Morris, and he intorned Mr. Neill that his application could not be accepted until the corporation was a legal entity and bore the corporate seal. Chief Patrick had taken Mr. Neillls fingerprints and Mr. Neill was asked to bring the application to the adjourned meeting on Monda.v, 26 July 1971, corrected as per Paul t s instructions and it would be approved condi tionally . Fire Chief Bill Ryan gave a report on the present condition of the Rural Fire District, after having attended the meeting. Boulder County Commissioners vetoed their plan. Bill also read a letter from Superior stating that they no longer wished fire protection from our department. After some discussion by the members and Council it was decided that the resolution set 4 years ago, be upheld; if the Fire District failed the Fire Department would discontinue fire protection outside the Ci ty limi ts. During the interim several suggestions were made such as a meeting with persons or groups before service was discontinued, such streets bounding the City such as Johnson and W. Spruce were specifi- cally mentioned, along with the increase of Insurance rates. The fact that the District could take the truck back at any time presented the problem of using the old truck and means of purchasing a new truck. Motion made by Mudrock that we proceed with a public notice that as of August 31, 1971 fire protection will be discontinued outside the City limits of Louisville; persons or groups of persons outside the area who desire service should contact Bill Ryan. Seconded by Dondelinger, roll call vote - passed unanimously. Mayor Caranci requested the notice be published in the Longmont Daily Times Call, Lafayette Leader, Town and Country Review, Broomfield Star, Boulder Camera, and the Louisville Times one time each week for 4 weeks. Motion by Dondelinger, seconded by Rome that a letter of appreciation be written to the firemen for a job well done. Passed unanimously.
