OPEN LETTER ©

January 2, 1963

An Open Letter to the Council, Corporation of the Vil-
lage of Castlegar, for the Information of the Public Util-
ities Commission and the Residents of Castlegar.

Over a year ago on December 8, 1961 I approached
the Council regarding my water system. The boundaries
of the Village ‘had been extended and I was in doubt ‘as
to the status of my water system. I stated that an ex-
penditure of $2,000.00 was required but naturally I re-| 5.
quested your intentions so that my present and future
capital expenditures, if any, would be protected.

. Your reply stated that you were not, at that time
(1961), prepared to set policy but did intimate that a pol-
icy would be set in 1962. In your own words you stated
“carry on as you see fit”.

After your purchase of the Sherbiko Water System
in 1962 for $11,000.00, ¥ again wrote you asking if by
this action in 1962 you had set policy on water enti
in the Village boundaries.

You replied that you had indeed made Mr. Sherbiko
an offer which was accepted ‘but that in my case you
would consider any offer I might care to- make.

At this stage, and after much adverse publicity on
the value of my system, I replied as follows: ©

“You‘now request me to make an offer for consider-
ation and yet in:the case of Sherbiko you stated;that the

» Village made an. offer. Why this change in policy? It’ap-

pears now that policy has been- set as previously stated | >"

in year 1962.: Further, why. was an offer made to. pur-
chase the Sherbiko system in the first place? What was
. the pressing need in this instance and the “wait and see”
attitude on the Sopow system?”
After this, your Council was prepared to meet with
me to discuss the water system and a meeting was held.
At this meeting I pr ti

figure of approximately $12,000.00. The outcome of this| 2775.

meeting was a matter of great disappointment to myself.
Your offer was worded as follows:

“It was unanimously resolved at this meeting to of-
fer you $2,000.00 for your water system AND lot No. 10,
Plan 4282”.

I was hesitant to even reply to this action on your
part as I didn’t wish to lend any credit to it...

I attended the meeting in good faith.with the belief
that you were sincerely concerned with doing what was
fair and reasonable. I realized that your offer had noth-
ing to do with our discussions. Nevertheless, out of cur-
iosity I requested a breakdown of your $2.000.00 amount.
As you realize, my lot No. 10 could be sold at anywhere
between $1,500.00 and 2,000.00.

This was your reply: “No attempt was made to sep-
arate this figure into evaluation of the two items since
this was considered the maximum the Village could just-
ifiably afford”.

With this, you then made public statements that Eli

Sopow had not replied to your offer, and erroneously
stated that my source of supply was from the Columbia
River which was polluted. For your information, my |
source is from a :
"It is interesting to note that some 20 residents. and
water users of the Sopow Water System petitioned the
Village to continue receiving water from my system
rather than from the Village.

I.am now in the process of installing new. pumps for
greater water pressure to the users and also making
necessary improvements for future operations. —

I am now convinced that the Council does not desire|
to deal in a businesslike manner and therefore request
no further discussion on this subject.

I-shall await further instructions from the ‘Public
Utilities Commission, but I would like assurances that my
investments both past and future are protected.

Yours truly,
Eli Sopow
