It was their feeling that persons on fixed incomes could not pay their bills. Also, Rental Towel Service representative, James Mabe, stated they would probably look for another location for their business. Mayor Hancock stated that Council had been informed by the Health Department that we must invest $2M into our filter plant for expansion to service the Town. Also, the sewer rate was increased to pay for the Peppers Ferry project for the treatment of the Town's sewage. The sewer fund and the water funds are enterprise funds and cannot be supplemented by the general fund. In answer to Jim Shepher's inquiring regarding water pressure on Mashburn Avenue, he was informed that the project for Mashburn was included in the proposed bond issue at an approximate cost of $45,000. Two citizens also expressed disapproval of the stop sign installed on Burgis Avenue. Mrs. Doyle, Rt. 2, Box 23 (Newbern Rd.) complained of a sewer odor which will be checked out by the Town.Mr. McKeever was asked for justification for doubling County rates to next Council meeting to determine if relief can be obrained. Also, once annexed, there will be few County customers left. Jake Blevins asked for the status of work on Peak Creek. PEAK Councilman Graham, Chairman of the committee to study Peak Creek, advised that CREEKcommittee had met.The committee recommended, and Councilman Graham so moved, that due to the fact that it does not appear cost effective for a full scale stream widening project for Peak Creek and Sproules Branch, it is recommended that the Town proceed with normal stream channel maintenance inside the present corporate limits on Town property. It is further recommended that this project be referred to the Finance Committee for cost data and timing of the channel main'~nance to be completed. .Motion seconded by Councilman 8270 September 15, 1987 Neblett and carried on the following recorded vote: John A.

WHEREAS In 1787, the United States was a nation of 13 sovereign states, independent of each other, aligned along the eastern seaborad, from New Hampshire to Georgia.

Today, our Constitution is the oldest written instrument of national government in the world. WHEREAS All Americans will be celebrating t~Q Bicentennial of the Constitution's signing on September 17, 1987, and the establishment of the new government under the Con- stitution in later years, through the commemoration of the ratification of the Bill of Rights in 1991.
