This item was recessed until the end of the Council Meeting, at which time the following
occurred:
Fin ins of Need for Consideration:
The District Attorney stated that this item dealt with establishing water rights through an
application with the State Water Resources Control Board. Consideration was necessary at
this time because of notification from the special water legal counsel that certain other parties
had filed applications for water rights in the San Juan Basin and there was a time urgency to
consider the filing of a similar application with the State to ensure the District's rights into the
future.
Upon motion of Director Campbell, seconded by Director Hart, and unanimously carried, it
was found that this item was unavailable prior to publication of the agenda and consideration
was necessary at this time based on the findings described by the District Attorney.
The General Manager advised that the application to the State Water Resources Control
Board was for water rights to the San Juan Basin in the amount of 2,900 acre feet per year.
He noted that this request reflected the present pumping level and the expected capacity
necessary at build -out, as identified in the General Plan.
Authorization to File Application:
It was moved by Director Hart, seconded by Director Greiner, and unanimously carried to
authorize filing of the application with the State Water Resources Control Board.
