Item 5: Land Purchase-Osceola Well
The survey for the Osceola Well site revealed the Corporation owned about ½ acre, but it had not all been fenced all these years and we were unaware it had not been fenced until the survey was completed. Therefore, the purchase of additional acreage from Mr. Mayfield will not be necessary and a new fence will be built to encompass the ½ acre well site. A letter will be sent to Mr. Mayfield rescinding the offer to purchase .46 acre, explaining what our survey uncovered and we were very sorry for any inconvenience.

Prairie Ground Water is looking at taking the highest peak water usage over the last 5 years, plus adding 30%. If the usage is implemented, we will not be able to use our wells to full capacity.
