The Board discussed the proposed budget and provided direction to staff on how it could be modified for presentation at the May 26, 2005 workshop.  The Board requested that additional information be brought forward at the next Board workshop:  (1) an estimate of the cost to complete Phase 1 of the Aquifer Storage and Recovery Project; (2) facts on the current retrofit program and how it could be expanded; and (3) cost to distribute the 2005 Annual Report as a newspaper insert, district-wide mailer, or publish in a local newspaper. 

 

During the public comment period on this item, John Fischer, a resident of Pacific Grove, noted that the absence of funding for construction of a dam or a District sponsored desalination project in the Fiscal Year 2005-2006 Budget.

 

The Directors agreed to consider agenda item 3 prior to the Closed Session.  Agenda item 2 was deferred to the May 16, 2005 Board meeting.  Agenda items 4 and 5 were deferred to a special Board meeting on June 16, 2005.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Director Potter reported that on April 22, 2005, District staff and Directors Potter and Lehman met with Assemblymember Laird’s staff regarding AB 1421.   The Assemblyman’s staff  were receptive to the District’s suggestions for amendments to the bill.  According to Director Potter, it would be premature to oppose the bill at this time. Director Lehman noted that the District’s concerns would be discussed and possibly incorporated into subsequent revisions to AB 1421.
