Councilmember Ratty, Chairman of the Urban Development
Committee, presented an Oral Report regarding the status of the
Northwest Sewer Project as follows:
The City of Bakersfield is very interested in work-
ing with all citizens and agencies for the better-
ment of the urban area. We have a major stake in
responsibility for planning, development and for
servicing their metropolitan area. Therefore, we
respectfully request the following:
That a decision be made as part of the Public
Facilities Element and the planning process of
the Plan 2010 which is currently in draft form
and is ready for public deliberation and hear-
ing.
That this decision be considered along with
other important matters, such as urban sprawl,
air quality and the cost of providing other
necessary infrastructure for this area.
That the Board of Supervisors request an engi-
neering study to provide cost figures for the
Bakersfield alternatives, or that the Board of
Supervisors provide the City of Bakersfield
with a counter proposal to our July 16, 1987,
letter which states, "The City would consider
a departure from its current policy on annexa-
tion if the County would stop urban sprawl in
the 2010 Plan area."
o
A limited number of homes per acre allows the
City to handle development within its sphere of
influence and removes the CSA 71 from the City's
sphere of influence.
Bakersfield, California, October 21, 1987 - Page 7
In summary, we want you to represent the urban area
and our interests in having orderly growth while
preserving and enhancing our investment in the cen-
tral core. We want to make sure that this major
decision is made within the context of providing
cost effective services that are sensitive to our
air quality, transportation needs, agricultural
needs, and providing other governmental services.
The current urban area has the necessary infra-
structure tools in place to provide sewers for the
next ten to fifteen years. There is no need to add
substantial costs to the taxpayers for a facility
not needed at this time.
Public Works Director Hawley presented an overview of
the northwest sewer project.
Councilmember Moore made a motion that the City Council
and the County Board of Supervisors meet in a public forum to dis-
cuss the northwest sewer project.
Councilmember Smith called for the question.
Councilmember Moore restated his motion, that the Coun-
cil invite the County Board of Supervisors to participate in a
joint public meeting to discuss the proposals of both bodies in an
effort to accommodate the sewage needs of northwest Bakersfield.
Councilmember Smith made a substitute motion to refer
the issue of discussions on City and County proposals of the north--
west sewer project to the Intergovernmental Relations Committee.
This motion was approved by the following vote:
