Discussion v;as had relative to the impracticability of verifying, through communication with the owners of property designated as included in the leL..ses upon which oil wells are proposed to be drilled as shown upon the mars nov: required to be filed by annlications for oil well permits, the fact that such properties are actually included in such purported leases, due to the fact that the one week's time now allo"',d is insufficient to enable the City Clerk to ascertain the names of the orners of all of the property included in such purported leases, to commluiica.te with them and to receive their replies. It v,,,-:s suggested that the same result could be accomplished more exreditiously and effectively by placing the Barden upon the applicants for oil drilling permits, by requiring them to set forth in such apnlications that the facts stated therein are true and that in event they are discovered to be false, that then any permit granted pursuant to such application shall become n?Lll and void. Thereafter it. Vas moved .by i.;ayor Binder, seconded by Councilman Selby, that the Cite Attorney, the City Engineer and the City Clerk collaborate upon the preparation of a form of application for oil drilling permits, which form, v.-hen t.do.ted, shall contain all of the information necessary to enable the Council to act nromntly thereon, such form, when prepared and before being nut to use, to be presented to this Council for approval. Carried unanimously. � U164M Iroved by ;Mayor Binder, seconded by Councilman Selby, that the City Clergy: be and he is hereby authorized to cause an intercommunicating system, connecting his office with that of the Police Department and the City Engineer's office, to be installed for trial purposes and that the expenditure of not to exceed %30.00 for the installation of the necessary cables and conduit, be and the same is hereby authorized and directed.
