SPECIAL MEETING
WATER BOARD - CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
MONDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1990
5:00p.m.
The meeting was called to order at 5:15p.m. by Boardmember
Salvaggio in the Water Resources Conference Room.
The roll was called as follows:
Present: Salvaggio (Chairman); Peterson, Brunni
A motion was made by Boardmember Peterson to approve minutes
of the meeting held August 14, 1990. Motion passed.
Mr. Core presented before the Board the Water Supply Agreement
between Glen Grundeis and the City of Bakersfield. This agreement
would allow Mr. Grundeis to withdraw raw, untreated water from the
Kern River for use on a 2.5 acre parcel for domestic and irrigation
uses. The water will be $52.00 per acre foot and the meters are to
be installed and maintained by the parcel owner. This agreement
will be a precedent for future water users along the Kern River. A
motion to recommend approval by City Council was made by Board-
member Brunni. Motion passed.
The License Agreement for Pedestrian Crossing of Carrier Canal
between Bethel Apostolic Academy and City of Bakersfield was brought
before the Board by Mr. Core. The Bethel Apostolic Academy desires
to build a pedestrian footbridge across the Carrier Canal to access
property they own. The maintenance and liability on the footbridge
will be the responsibility of the Bethel Apostolic Academy. A
motion was made by Boardmember Peterson to recommend approval by
City Council. Motion passed.
Mr. Dow presented before the Board a review of construction bids
for the Water Operations Building. The City received nine bids on the
re-bid of this project, and the bids were lower than the prices the
City received in August of 1990. Staff reviewed the changes made to
modify the building. Following Board discussion Boardmember Peterson
made a motion to recommend City Council accept low bid from Piper Devries,
Inc., DBA Omega Construction. Motion passed.
Mr. Core presented before the Board the Urban Water Management
Plan review. This plan review describes the City system, shows past,
present and future water uses and needs, that groundwater is the main
source of water, and that the groundwater is continually being re-
plenished with Kern River water and/or State water. The groundwater
supply is of good quality and quantity and there are no projected supply
deficiencies. At this time there will be no need for rationing or
price increases to control water use. This required plan is to be
filed with the State of California by the end of December, therefore,
staff is asking Board to adopt this report as presented. A motion to
adopt was made by Boardmember Peterson. Motion passed..
The meeting adjourned at 5:43p.m.
