The minutes from the meeting of February 3, 1982, were 'approved
as presented.
Special Facilities Contract with Tenneco Realty Development
Corporation to construct and acquire a well, reservoir, and
booster plant near Mohawk Street and Truxtun Avenue was pre-
sented to the board. At this time Mr. Dale Hawley, Public.
Works Director for the City gave a detailed map illustration
of the area involved. He stated there were inadequate water
facilities to handle the ultimate growth in this area. Pre-
sently the area is served by well stations five (5) and six (6).
The total estimated cost of the project is $964,300. Tenneco
has agreed to construct the facility and then as the area de-
velops the City would reimburse Tenneco for the proportionate
share of the area that was developed. The City will eventually
pay for the entire system out of .the Domestic Water general
revenue funds. The City would eventually own all of this
facility and as soon as the contract is completed the City
would immediately take over ownership. As the area developed
the City would reimburse Tenneco for 63% of the initial con-
struction cost.
Mr. Kelmar at this time questioned what type of income the
City would be getting from the property. Mr. Hansen stated
that a study of this has not yet been made. After further
discussion between board and staff, the board still had a'
number of unanswered questions as to justification and benefit
of the contract and requested this information be brought back
to .the board. At this time Mr. Hawley stated that Mr. Thomas
M. Stetson, Consulting Engineer for the City has approved the
contract. At this time Mr. Oberholzer made a motion that item
number four (4) be postponed until the next regular Water Board
Meeting.
There being no further business to come before the board,
Chairman Barton adjourned the meeting at 4:20 P.M.
