Mr. Oxsen was directed to contact Mr. L. C. Haight, consulting actuary, to determine if he could come to Pleasanton to assist the Council in preparing the necessary forms for entering the State Employees' Retirement Syetem. Upon receiving Mr. Haight's reply, a special meeting will be called. 209 At this time a group appeared before the Council to explain the results:_ of the recent dental survey at the Pleasanton Grammar School. Those present were: Mr. Frank Lucas, Mr. John C. Mann and Mrs. Geralding Deck, from the Elementary School; Dr. Malcolm, of the Alameda County Health Dept; Dr. Bardsley, of the Veterans Hospital; and Dr. Hector. Or. Bardsley presented a dummary of the survey and charts illustrating same. He stated that 92% of the 748 children examined had defective teeth, and 8% of the children had normal teeth. Mr. Lucas felt that an adult education program was needed to reduce the high percentage of defective teeth. Mrs. Deck stated that the survey had helped some in influencing parents to snake dental appointments for their children. Dr. Malcolm stated that fluoridation of the public water supply would reduce defective teeth greatly. Dr. Hector agreed with his opinion. Councilman Abrott told the group. that the necessary equipment for fluoridating the water had been installed; however, a meter must be in- stalled on the 6" line in order to meet the requirements of the State Board of Health. In all probability this will be installed by June lst, at which time the fluoridation equipment will be put into operation. Mr. Oxsen was requested to order this meter from either Neptune Meter Co. or Sparling Meter Co. and also to see Mr. Al Avilla in regard to building a room for the fluoridation equipment. COMMITTEE REPORTS: PUBLIC UTILITIES: Mr. Oxsen stated that Mr. Victor Lund had read the corrected lease prepared by Attorney White and approved same; however, Mr. Lund did wish to have a clause added that would permit him to remove fences and corrals upon expiration of lease. RESOLUTION No. 2291, authorizing execution of lease to Victor Lund, was adopted, on motion of Councilman Abrott, seconded by Councilman Cairo and approved by all Councilmen present. Mr. Oxsen spoke with Mr. George Andrews in an effort to reach an agreeable price on his land for the reservoir site; however, Mr. Andrews had put the matter in the hands of his Attorney. The Council felt that the matter had been delayed enough; therefore, Attorney White will be instructed to start friendly condemnation proceedings. RESOLUTION No. 2290, approving final payment to Western Well Drilling Co., in the amount of $1,938.39, was adopted, on motion of Councilman Hewitson, seconded by Councilman Cairo, and approved by all Councilmen present.
