ROLL CALL --' PRESENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: KNIGHT, MAC MURRAY, TORN, VALENZUELA, UNSWORTH ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: NONE Also present were: Interim City Manager Trevino, Attorney Gene Nazarek and Dwight French from M.S.I. BUSINESS ITEMS 1. Wastewater Treatment Plant Gene Nazarek stated that he felt there was no need for an Executive Session at this time. Dwight French representing M.S.I., reviewed the agreement prepared by Best, Best and Krieger for the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District. He stated that some of the firm understandings he thought were reached at the recent meeting between the City and the District were not apparent in the agreement. Mr. Nazarek pointed out that this is a very complex, long-term (30 Year) contract involving overlapping areas of authority between Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District and the City. Definite obligations and rights of each Agency must be clearly defined within this agreement. Certain procedures must be established now, in anticipation of future growth and to avoid potential problems. - Mr. Torn commented that there is still a great deal of opposition to the pro- posed location of the plant at Scales Way and Grand Avenue. There have been several meetings and pub~ic workshops for the purpose of discussing the site. A Blue Ribbon Committee has been appointed to study and recommend alternate site locations. He felt that an agreement could not be signed until the actual site is finalized. Dwight French stated there is a section in the agreement which has not yet been completed, which requires the establishment of an Advisory Committee to manage and enforce the agreement. This committee will consist of two members of the City Council and two members of the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District Board and would meet quarterly to resolve issues and make recommendations to their respective Boards. Mayor Unsworth suggested the committee include the First District Supervisor. Mr. Nazarek advised that, as the agreement is written, the City has no control over various costs which they are expected to share, such as administrative costs, District consultant fees, expenses related to claims and law suits and expenditures associated with District employee error. He suggested that the District be required to prepare an annual budget for City approval. The group concurred that the agreement needed considerable revision. Dwight French and Gene Nazarek will rework the agreement and bring it back to the Council for review after the necessary changes have been completed. ... 2. Baseball Fees - City Parks Mr.Unsworth"commented that there is a need to determine the fees to be charged to local groups for the use of baseball facilities at city parks. Little League as well as adult leagues are scheduling the fields for the current season and need to work out their budgets. Mr. Torn suggested that we investigate what the local schools charge for their facilities and use that as a guide. ~l Page two Adjourned, Adjourned City Council Minutes April 20, 1983 2. Baseball Fees - City Parks - Continued. Mr. Trevino stated that he would determine the costs of lighting and main- tenance and develop an hourly rate for usage. He informed the Council that these figures should be available later this week. ---- 3. City Manager Position Mr. Unsworth reported that letters were sent to five of the applicants for this position, informing them that they were being considered and inviting them to arrange an interview. At this time, only one of the applicants has responded. Mr. Unsworth requested authorization to send out letters to seven additional applicants. Council concurred. 4. Ultra-Lite Fly-In ;X) r-- l"- !~ C:l o Mr. Trevino stated that he had received a request from Edward Snyder to hold an Ultra-Lite Fly-In which is scheduled for April 24 and 25. Approximately two to three thousand people are expected to attend the event. He stated the request came in very late and he felt the owner of the Ultra-Lite park should have applied for an additional CUP as this is not a normal business activity. The existing Conditional Use Permit under which the business is operating does not cover special events. Mr. Porter has stated that no special permission is necessary, that the event is covered by their existing license. Mr. Torn stated he felt Council should have been given advance notice on a special event such as this. Ms. Valenzuela stated that due to recent flooding, the ultra-lite facility has been moved to another location which is different from the one covered by their existing Conditional Use Permit. Under the circumstances, she feels a special permit should have been requested well in advance of this event. However, she does feel that Council should abide by the recommendations of the City Attorney. Moved by Torn, seconded by Valenzuela to deny the request for an Ultra-Lite Fly-In due to flooding of approved place of operation.
