He noted that the <br />Director of Public Works will inform the Golf Course what level of water they will <br />receive. <br /> <br />Brown commended City Staff for taking action early, and for bringing the information to <br />Council. He concurred that it is important to notify the citizens of the water shortage. <br /> <br />Phare offered several suggestions for water conservation until the Water Committee and <br />Council formulate a formal plan. He reported that a pipeline was constructed in the <br />spring, from the raw water intake at the South Water Treatment Plant (Howard Berry <br />Water Treatment Facility) to a delivery system of the golf course, and that the Louisville <br />Reservoir project is completed. For citizens, Phare suggested watering in the evening, <br />and maintaining grass at 2" or higher to keep moisture in the ground. He suggested <br />aerating lawns and the use of mulch around plants and trees to protect the root structure. <br />He stressed that citizens should check for leaks. <br /> <br />Sisk asked Phare to provide more water conservation suggestions to the citizens. He <br />stressed that the City needs to lead by example. <br /> <br />Mayer suggested signage on city property, giving a telephone number for reporting leaks <br />or broken sprinklers. He stated that the golf course should repay the water fund to help <br />purchase water rights. <br /> <br />Davidson stated that the City purchases water rights as they become available and will <br />continue to do so. <br /> <br />Mayer commented that the City has not anticipated water needs from Marshall Lake and <br />referred to the Raw Water Master Plan.
