silt retention basins.
Art Kidman reported on AB 3637 and AB 2733. AB 2733 to be redrafted to apply to
only Yorba Linda County Water District rather than a general bill to include all
areas. Mr. Kidman also reported there were some errors in the list of home owners
in I.D.# 1 refund group and we should be receiving a memorandum from the City
Engineer correcting them. There will be additional money needed to be deposited
by the Developers, approximately $1600.00. Mr. Kidman reported on the June 8, 1982
meeting he and President Knauft had with Supervisor Nestande, as favorable; Letter
we had sent had been lost so new copy was mailed and will be reviewed. Suggested
the litigation should be put on hold until Supervisors have reviewed the matter.

taking over the operation of the six sanitation districts. No report on the
meeting of Wednesday the 9th of the Sanitation District.
Michael Payne's report on Job 82-20 on Buena Vista and Jefferson, the Anderson
property. The recommendation for sewer by the City of Placentia was explained to the
Board, a sewer lift station would be too costly to maintain and operate. Sewer will
be installed to City of Placentia Trunk. The in tract sewer facilities will be
maintained by the District, sewer maintenance charge will be billed on the water
bill just like the rest of the District. The Developer will pay one time charges
