Districts,and shall not pass to the Users until the Users
have sold their bonds,constructed the new disposal plants
and land and marine sections of the outfall sewer and have
them in condition for operation to the extent that the new
facilities,together with the existing facilities,can
handle and dispose of the capacity of sewage contributed by
the parties to this agreement,at which time said Cities and
Sanitary Districts will execute and deliver to theCounty
Sanitation Districts good and sufficient instruments giving
them the right of use of said facilities and title to said
personal property described in ~xhibit A and shall deliver
possession thereof to the County Sanitation D:stricts,which
shall thereafter have the collt:L’ol and operation thereof.”
There followed a general discussion by board members present on
these two paragraphs of the Use and Ultimate Purchase ligreement.
Director Reed cited the Joint Outfall Sewer Districts’2-year
expansion program as recoomended by Mr.Gillespie as an example of
where facilities are being added and expanded,the cost of which
will ultimately be paid for by the ~anitation Districts,yet
the Sanitation Districts have no voice in the decisions as to the
necessity of certain phases of the work,and which cannot be
determined at this time as it has not been decided where the plant
is to be located.
Director Featherly asked I’Ir.E.J.Marks when possession
would pass to the Sanitation Districts.Judge Marks referred to
the last paragraph on Page 16 of the Use and Ultimate Purchase
Agreement “.....the Users have sold their bonds,constructed the
new disposal plant and land and marine sections of the outfall sewer
and have them in condition for operation to the extent that the
new facilities,together with the existing facilities,can handle
and dispose of the capacity of sewage contributed by ~he parties
to this ~greeinient
Director i~iandy expressed the opinion that this paragraph
should read “when the bonds are sold”rather than to “the extent
that new facilities,together with existing facilities can handle
and dispose of the capacity of se’vrage contributed by ~he parties to
this agreement....”
Director i~eed expressed tile opinion that there should be
stipulated in the last paragraph on Page 16 of the Use arid Ultimate
Purchase Agreement,a definite period of time,whether two weehs,
a mont~,or six weeks fro~~ho time the bonds were sold until the
County Sanitation iJistricts would assume supervision and responsibilityofexistingfacilities,new facilities and management thereof.

District Boards of Directors had adjourned their regular meetings to
other dates in order to consider these two contracts,it might be
