Mandatory Water Conservation. Mr.
which carried with the following
AYES: Councilmembers Potempa, Baldwin, Stanhope, Marsh and
Greenwald.
NAYS: None
Mr. Sweatt explained this ordinance does make substantial changes
in our current water management plan, that has been in effect
since 1989, which was tied exclusively to water elevation. Under
the conditions we find today and those recommended by the
Edwards, Stage 2 condition, which is at the 628' level, under
these proposed changes, would change from voluntary condition to
a mandatory condition, which demands that reduction measures be
taken. This change authorizes certain percentage reductions in
demand and sets specific criteria for mandatory condition for
outside watering primarily. It prescribes for violation of those
condi tions to be punishable by a fine when found guil ty, up to
$200. It authorizes the Utility Department to issue citations
for violations. Primarily Stage 2, which we are in now under a
voluntary arrangement, would change to that of a mandatory
condition. The tables included in the ordinance describes
var ious kinds of conditions for new and existing landscaping
activity as well as other types of water use. This would not
make a change, at this time, to the other stages. Most of the
entities in the area are making these changes so that we will all
use the same type water conservation plan.
