Pleasant must either pay for improvements to the New Castle Water system and provide a new water storage tank, or else find a new way to provide water to about 500 homes in the Bear Ridge section of Mt. Pleasant, as New Castle Supervisor Charles Banks told Mt. Pleasant Supervisor Michael Rovello at a joint meeting between the Town Boards Wed., Nov. 5 in New Castle Town Hall. New Castle has vowed since February not to renew its con tract to supply water to the Old Farm Hill and Usonia Water Districts in Mt. Pleasant unless Mt. Pleasant pays for the improvements to the New Castle system. New Castle also re quested drawings of the Old Farm Hill Water District and information about its current and projected number of homes. The information is required in the contract, but was never deli* vered;-according to Supervisor: Banks. The three-year contract expires March 31, 1982. New Castle Water District has served Mt. Pleasant since 1975. Homes have been continually added to the New Castle system, but New Castle has never been officially notified, Mr. Banks asserted, noting approximately 150 homes in the half-finished Heritage Court Development. Mt. Pleasant residents now consume up to 40 percent of the peak demand from the Bedford Road pumping station \which is Israeli pianist to perform at library Daniel Adni, the Israeli-born pianist and a recipient of the 1981 Philip M.

He admitted, however, tha't even at peak demand the Bedford Road station pumps only half of its million gallon per day capacity since the Whippoorwill Country Club was placed on a different main. \We still have plenty left before we reach capacity on that station, but the tail is starting to wag the dog. You're becoming more troublerthan you're worth.'' Eventually, 700 homes would be in the area served by New Castle, Supervisor Rovello pre dicted \Maybe it's a conservation problem, increased usage or a lot of leaks,\ Mr. Banks sug gested. \Or maybe they drink a lot and are very clean, I don't know. But I do know that your consumption is going up a lot faster than ours.\ Dirty water Increased Old Farm Hill con sumption also contributed to he dirty water seen in the Hillholme Road-Devoe Road area this summer, Mr. Banks asserted.

The Republican control on the Board went from 3-2 to 4-1. Councilmember Lois Mitchell became the first woman Super visor in New Castle history with her victory over local attorney Daniel Doran, 2656 to 2288. Con servative party votes accounted for 309 of Mrs. Mitchell's tally. Democratic Council candi dates Faye Woocher and Slade Cargill were defeated iiy the Republicans with the help of over 300 Conservative votes. Final tallies listed Mr. Marten with 2,788; Mr. Lind 2550; Mrs. Woocher 2,174; and Mr. Cargill 2,158. Incumbent Tax Receiver Re publican Frances Millett defeated Democrat Lynn Feldberg 3,113 to 1,795. Fifty nine percent of New Cas tle's 8,433 registered voters went to the polls. The Supervisor-elect said an unspoken question throughout the election was \whether New Castle would accept a woman Supervisor.\ Mrs. Mitchell said she was surprised how well her opponent did. \New Castle may be ready for a woman Supervi sor, but not ready in a big way,\ r she commented. The victory is the \seal of approval on the way the Repub licans have been running the government,\ she added.
