City negotiated to purchase 62 shares of South <br />Boulder Canon Ditch stock along with certain <br />storage rights in the Marfell Lakes. The water <br />rights have historically been used on a farm south <br />of Erie owned by Jim and Carina Futhey. The <br />Futheys dissolved their marriage and split up the <br />land and water rights in kind. The City purchased <br />30 shares of South Boulder Canon Ditch stock and <br />the storage rights from Carina Futhey over a year <br />ago. The Jim Futhey land and water rights were <br />subsequently transferred to RB Development, Inc. <br />That entity has been in Chapter 11 reorganization <br />for the last several months and therefore the City <br />has been unable to complete the water rights <br />acquisition. However, in late February, the <br />bankruptcy court entered an order allowing RB <br />Development, Inc. to proceed with the proposed <br />sale of the remaining 32 shares of South Boulder <br />Canon Ditch stock to the City. The selling price <br />is the same as the earlier transaction and the <br />terms are comparable. The City will pay $6,000 <br />down at closing and pay the remaining $90,000 over <br />several years pursuant to a promissory note <br />bearing interest at the rate of 6.9~. <br />Mayor Fauson moved and Scarpella seconded to place <br />Ordinance #990 out for publication and set a <br />public hearing for April 4, 1989. Motion passed <br />7-0. <br />MASTER WATER PLAN <br />UPDATE Phare explained that over the past few months, <br />staff has been in a process of revising the City <br />Comprehensive Plan. The revision to the <br />Comprehensive Plan requires updating the existing <br />Water Master Plan. The Comprehensive Plan <br />identifies areas north and southwest that are not <br />currently in the water service planning area. The <br />Public Works Department is proposing that the <br />current Master Plan be updated to reflect the <br />additional planned service areas identified in the <br />Comp Plan. In addition to revising the Master <br />Plan to reflect additional service areas, there <br />will be some effort spent reviewing water <br />consumption data used to create projections of <br />peak demands. The update will also provide <br />projections of plant sizing for the proposed <br />Howard Berry Plant. Staff requested a proposal <br />from Rocky Mountain Consultants (RMC) to update <br />the Water Master Plan for land use and service <br />areas as reflected in the Comp Plan. RMC's <br />proposal for this work is $14,600 to conduct the <br />update including mapping and a written report. <br />There will also be an expense for computer <br />software (approximately $1,800) to allow in-house <br />4 <br />
