Gentlemen:
-On the universally accepted basis for aedbunting and alloca-
tion of costs, a water department of any community sets up a charge
against each fire hydrant installed for the service which the sup-
ply system of the community has to render to the hydrant for fire
protection purposes. This value is termed as a "stand-by" charge.
i
t
193
In the instance of the City of Glens Falls at the present time, this
value has been determined at a figure not less than $20 per hydrant
per year.
Therefore, in answer to the inquiry your Honorable body has
addressed to this Bpard with reference to the possibilities for per-
mission, on application of the FireProtection, Distriet of- the Town
of Queensbury, to have various fire hydrant 1=tallationes made and
attached to the water supply system of this City for that` pa pose of
rendering fire protection service: to the property- owners In the Town
of Qt eensbury, we consider the following offer to be proper and fair,
namely: .
This Board will grant permission for the installation of such
hydrants along the water supply system of the City as may be reasonably
necessary for fire protection service, upon the conditions that: - '
said firepprotection district pay the entire costs of such install-
ations, which are to be made by the employees of the water department
of the City under the direction of its proper authorities, and assume
all maintenance thereof; accept and pay a charge of $20,per year for
each and every hydrant- now or hereafter to be installed, whether with-
in or Without any established water district situated in the Townf and
accept and pay a flat rate water rental charge of $30 per year for the
water which may be used during the year from any and every hydrant now
or hereafter to be installed within said fire protection district. No
flat rate water rent charge w be made for the hydrants now' or heere-
� after to .be. installed within the said water districts and served by
the City's supply, as any use of water from these hydrants will puss
throU&h and be measured by the master water meters installed or to be
installed at the water district boundaries and the water so used will
be charged for at the time of the rendering, of the regular quarterly
meter rent bills.-

Awaiting your pleasures in the matter, we remain
