6. DISCUSSION ITEMS
6.1. Vehicle and Equipment List for Each Agency
The subject list for each agency was reviewed. It was noted that each
agency has specialty vehicles and equipment that may be used
infrequently, and that making those available under a shared-services
agreement could be of mutual benefit. There was discussion as to the
hourly cost for use, if an operator would be required, and the agreement
under which the equipment would be provided. Mr. Butzlaff indicated
LAFCO has been encouraging this idea, as a cost-saving measure for
public agencies. He will contact LAFCO for information about a shared-
services agreement and will update the Joint Agency Committee on his
findings at our next meeting.
6.2. Water-Use Efficiency Programs
Mr. Conklin referred to the attachment, which provided information on
water-use efficiency programs available through MWDOC and MWD. Mr.
Butzlaff noted that he and his staff were familiar with the programs
available and the potential rebates and incentives. He indicated that the
savings were a relative small percentage or were over a long period of
time. As an alternative, the City was interested in pursuing a water-saving
landscape modification project in which the District would participate in the
upfront costs as a demonstration project. Following discussion, it was
agreed that City staff will send information to the District on the proposed
improvements for the areas under consideration. This idea will be further
discussed at the next Joint Agency Committee meeting.
7. ADJOURNMENT
7.1. The meeting was adjourned at 10:45 a.m. The next YLWD/City of
Placentia Joint Agency Committee meeting will be later scheduled for a
time in the fall.
