A general discussion ensued among committee members and staff
regarding groundwater versus imported water, recent rains and waterfall
levels, reservoirs, runoff and local wells.
6.2 Proposed Water Rates
Finance Manager Delia Lugo gave an overview of proposed water and
sewer rate increases.
Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC) Director Al
Nederhood, clarified that the Army Corps of Engineers' basic mission is
flood control, one exception is the Forecast-Informed Reservoir Operations
(FIRO) program which allows for additional capture of storm-water. Director
Nederhood also said that although inflation has caused rate increases,
Metropolitan Water District (MET) has made a two-year commitment to
maintain a 5% or less increase in water costs and similarly, MWDOC
maintains a per-meter charge at 3.1% increase and operation charge at
4.2%.

Booster Pump Station and gave an overview of improvements and
anticipated completion dates for each one.
City Engineer/Public Works Director Jamie Lai provided an update on
current projects in the City including the Annual Pavement Preservation
Project (APPP), which is on a seven year cycle and split into seven different
zones within the City, as well as the Bastanchury Road Widening between
Casa Loma Avenue and Eureka Avenue.
6.4 Joint Agency Horse Trail Project at Highland Reservoir
Senior Engineer Reza Afshar provided a map of the Highland Reservoir
Horse Trail and outlined the proposed project.
Director Tom Lindsey said that he had walked the property and believes it
will be an amenity to the City while solving security issues the District has
experienced among other things. He said they would like to bring back a
recommendation to the full Water District Board and asked what the City
thought of the project timeline.
City Manager Pulone said trails are a priority for the City but are costly and
must compete with others. He would like to see the trail alignment
preserved into the future and categorized it as a Tier II project which means
it has been identified but not scheduled, and does not include funding. He
said the resident across from the project would like to do some
improvements to his property and this alignment will potentially impact what
they do.
City Engineer/Public Works Director Lai agreed and said the City would like
to secure the easement and have all preliminary planning in place.
General Manager Toy confirmed the project is not urgent and the City and
District have enjoyed good cooperation. He said the goal is to have a
mutually agreeable plan.
Vice President Trudi DesRoches asked for clarification of the District's
schedule and Mr. Afshar responded that the project was not currently on the
CIP list and he would obtain more information for the Committee.
Councilwoman Janice Lim asked if there had been any resident concerns
and Mr. Afshar said there have been some concerns from residents that use
the private road; however, they have legal access through other means.
