Beginning Sunday afternoon, November 6th, and continuing every Sunday and holidays there- after, there will be mail collections from the let- ter boxes IN FRONT OF THE POST OFFICES. Thus, if a piece of mail is deposited in either the Florin or Mount Joy boxes before 3:45 p.m., delivery will be possible the very next day, in most cases. : The collection from the local boxes will be made by extending a service already existing from Harrisburg to Elizabethtown. The improved service will make it possible for late Saturday mail and important letters rea- dy to be dropped in either of the two outside box- es—Mount Jov or Florin—to be put on their way for Monday delivery.

Then bids will sought and contracts let. Contracts probably will be in three sections: 1. For the meters themselves; 2. for the couplings needed to fit the meters into the water lines of homeowners’, and 3. The actual installation it- self. The Authority hopes to complete the installation sometime in 1961. When all homes have been metered, the Boro Authority will begin a study of meter readings, actual water con- sumption and will measure these factors against the rate schedule. After several mon- ths - perhaps a year or more new rate schedules will be established. The new schedules will be set to equalize the quarterly charges and the amount of water used. Thus, there will be a basic, minimum fee and graduated rates for varying amounts of consumption. If a householder uses very little water, he will pay a mini- mum fee. However, if his neighbor has a big family, uses a lot of water, washes his car often, sprinkles his lawn and fills a swimming pool, he will pav a consider- higher bill.
