Bainum paid for everything - engineering costs, the pipe and installa- tion, the lift station and storage of the water. Some years later, stated Johnny Plyler, the ADEQ told Bainum he could no longer use the “grey” water on his golf course. The City of Glenwood had its’ permit revised so they could put 400,000 gallons per day back into the river if it is properly treated. Later years saw the Plyler Family purchase the club house and course, and all expenses incurred then and now are paid for by the new own- ers. Johnny Plyler stated that letters had been sent by an elected official about alleged problems, but none of it was true and he could prove it. He also requested that the council pass some type of rule or regulation that no one representing the city can send out letters that are not previously approved by the council. The three members present agreed and will seek the advice of the city attorney Jana Bradford. The council then turned to amendments to the meeting minutes ranging back to January of this year.
