9/18/84 Page -16- ~uncilwoman Morris Requested that the Council meeting be con- tinued to another night to deal with the water treatment plant and building permit moratorium. She felt uncomfortable with lifting the moratorium until final testing had been completed to assure that the plant would produce another 2 MGD for the 1985 season. Mayor Meier and Councilmembers Leary, Fauson, Luce and Cussen preferred lifting the mora- torium for the 1984 building permits only by voting this evening. Acting City Administrator Rupp stated that there were approximately 115 building per- mits left to be taken out in 1984. In reply to Councilwoman Morris' inquiry, Mark Klee of Rocky Mountain Consultants stated that the maximum water usage without restrictions would amount to 4.8 - 5.0 MGD during the summer months and the present water treatment plant could produce 5.8 MGD. Councilman Leary Inquired of Director Asti-Caranci what our expenditures were for water for 1985. She read each of these by line item. Mr. Leary then asked if no building permits are taken out this year can we meet our existing needs next year? Her reply was she doubted that we could; we couldn't do any of the Harper Lake storage project. Building Permit Moratorium Mayor Meier moved, Councilman Fauson seconded Lifted for 1984 that the building permit moratorium is lifted until December 31, 1984 and that the permits will be allocated according to the numbers previously approved in each individual category by Council.
