2. MWDOC Grant. Mike Payne advised the committee on the status of the grant
MWDOC had applied for on behalf of the District and fifteen other member
agencies for developing a tiered rate structure. Ken Vecchiarelli gave an
explanation of the model that would be used to determine if the tiered rate
structure would be a good fit for the District. Director Collett asked if MWDOC
had explained the requirements of Proposition 218 as it applied to the
changing of the rate structure. Ken replied MWDOC had decided it would
support whatever each individual agency decided to do. Director Collett then
stated the Board would review the possibility of a change of rate structure but
noted it was important to present general information on the water crisis
leading up to this possible change expeditiously.
3. Public Information Plan Notes. The committee reviewed staffs notes on
possible public information tactics and Mike Payne stated by the next Public
Information-Technology meeting, a more developed plan would be made
available to the Committee. Director Beverage commented that the "why" of
the campaign would need to come back to the Committee level several times
to be developed.
