3. ACTION CALENDAR
3.1. Funding of Additional Water Education in District Elementary Schools
The Committee reviewed staff's recommendation for approving payment
of $3,500 to MWDOC for additional water education in District elementary
schools for the remainder of this school year. The Committee
recommended the approval be brought before the full Board on March 10,
2011 for authorization. However, to meet the Brown Act requirements,
this item will appear on the Board Agenda for their Meeting on March 24
and will not appear on the March 10th agenda.
4. DISCUSSION ITEMS
4.1. Audio/Video in Board Room (Verbal Report)
Mr. Micalizzi presented to the Committee several options from outside
vendors, for installing a variety of camera configurations in the Board
Room and the costs associated with each. The Committee felt that at this
time, installation of an elaborate video system is cost prohibitive for the
District. Staff was instructed to come back with a report outlining costs
associated with an internal solution for videotaping, playback and archive
on the web.
4.2. Participation in Yorba Linda Community Faire & Car Show (Verbal Report)
The Committee discussed options for District Participation in the Yorba
Linda Community Faire on April 30th. Seeing as the event also falls on the
1
date of an employee recognition event, the Committee suggested having
one or two employees that are not planning on attending the employee
picnic to take the water truck to the Faire. Mr. Melton said he planned on
attending the Community Faire as well, on behalf of the District.
4.3. Draft Timeline for Elk Mountain Practice Field Project Outreach and
Education Efforts
Mr. Micalizzi presented the Committee with a Draft Timeline for Public
Outreach for the Elk Mountain Practice Field Project. The Committee
reviewed the outline and suggested minor revisions including moving one
of the meetings forward two weeks to better accommodate residents who
may have plans during the Easter Holiday Weekend.
4.4. Future Agenda Items and Staff Tasks
Director Hawkins asked for a future Discussion Item regarding a
dedication event at the Hidden Hills Reservoir.
