He said the $2.86 per HCF recommended in the staff report was based
on a 50% cut-back in water usage which had been anticipated by the
water district last month.
However, at a meeting previous to the Encinitas Sanitary District
meeting, the San Dieguito Water District Board had decided on a 20%
water cut-back.
He suggested, because of the 20% reduction, the Board amend the
amounts to $1.79 per HCF for commercial and $1.32 per HCF for
schools.
B. Smith questioned the District's request of collecting $108,100
revenue for FY 91-92.
The Clerk read the Ordinance by title.
Slater moved, Hano seconded to waive further reading and introduce
Ordinance 91-01 amending the Ordinance chanqing the language and
the fee to $1.79 for Commercial and to $1.32 for Schools. Motion
carried. Ayes: Davis, Hano, Slater, Omsted, Wiegand; Nays: None.

NEW BUSINESS
A.
Discussion of Uses of District Propertv Located at the Corner
of Encinitas Boulevard and Vulcan Avenue. Contact Person:
Hanaqement Analvst Schillinqer.
Management Analyst Schillinger stated that staff was directed to
provide alternatives for the current guard service and potential
uses of the District property.
He reported on alternatives for Guard Services and said staff
recommended pursuing hiring a caretaker in which the guards would
walk the property during predetermined hours and report any
ordinance infractions, in exchange for a pad to place his/her
trailer.
Mr. Schillinger said staff recommended waiting until SPArC's
recommendations are accepted by the City Council before developing
potential long-term uses of the property.
On a short term basis, staff suggested looking at renegotiating the
lease with Hubbard, or leasing a portion of the land to the City
or another private entity. Mr. Schillinger asked for direction to
staff regarding these options.

B.
Request From the ci tv of Encini tas to do a Studv of the
Constraints Associated with the District Propertv at Encinitas
Boulevard and Vulcan (Work proiect ESDO05). Contact Person:
Manaqement Analyst Schillinqer.
Management Analyst Schillinger reported that from 1953 to 1975 the
District property located at the corner of Vulcan and Encinitas
Boulevard was the site of the District's treatment facilities. He
said when the District joined the Encina JPA some of the existing
treatment facilities were torn down while others were buried under
as much as 50 feet of uncompacted material. Prior to any use of
the property over the former treatment facilities, extensive
testing should be done.
Further, the Work Project would be included -in the FY 1991-92
Financial Plan and the money would come out of existing reserves
and would not have an adverse impact on the rates charged to the
rate payers.
B. Smith said he did not agree with the District's paying for all
of the study and suggested the City pay for a portion.
Betsy Schreiber agreed that the study must be done and that the
city should share in the cost.
Slater moved, Hano seconded to approve staff recommendation to
approve Work Project ESDOO5, to do a study of the constraints
associated with the Encinitas Sanitary District property. Motion
carried. Ayes: Davis, Hano, Omsted, Slater, Wiegand; Nays: None.
