PUBLIC HEARINGS/ORDINANCES/RESOLUTIONS
Public Hearing: 2010 Budget Amendments and Water Use Efficiency Plan
Mayor DeVaney opened the public hearing for amending the 2010 budget and adopting a Water Use Efficiency Plan at 7:42 p.m.
Clerk-Treasurer Marsha Peterson explained that the garbage and water-sewer funds in 2010 experienced increased expenditures due to projects funded by grants. Line items in the current expense and park-pool funds for 2010 were adjusted within each fund to maintain those spending limits as originally adopted by Council. These line adjustments were to balance the present budget only.
Utility Superintendent, Marty Ramin, relayed to Council that the Department of Health Drinking Water Division, requires that the Town hold a public hearing each year to establish and adopt a Water Use Efficiency Plan to reduce water usage as part of permitting standards. Other requirements include monitoring and reporting to DOH water pumped versus usage to determine any loss due to leakage. Department of Health Drinking Water allows a 10% margin for loss. The Town’s water system operates well within that margin.
Ramin recommended setting a goal which would reduce water usage by 5 gallons per day per person over the next six years and educating the public about methods to conserve water via the Town newsletter and future public forums.
Mayor DeVaney closed the public hearing at 7:55 p.m.
Ordinance 2010-720
• Councilmember Snyder moved to adopt Ordinance 2010-720 which amends and increases the 2010 budget from $3,208,736.00 to $3,318,736.00, with a second from Koenig. Roll Call: Huber – Aye. Hawks – Aye. Olin – Aye. Snyder – Aye. Koenig – Aye. Unanimous approval.

• Council moved to approve Marty Ramin’s recommendation to set a goal for reducing water usage over the next six years by five gallons per person per day on a motion by Huber and a second by Koenig. Unanimous vote.
WASTEWATER PROJECT – ERLANDSEN & ANDERSON PERRY
Work Order I: Engineering Report
Alan Schroeder, Project Engineer from Anderson Perry & Associates, Inc., introduced himself to Council and briefed them on the process of developing an engineering report for the new wastewater project. Schroeder informed Council that an engineering report could take six months to a year to complete, and is a component required by Department of Ecology to obtain approval for grant/loan funding. At that time, the Council could then consider the appropriate option of either a wastewater treatment plant or improving the present lagoon system.
Eric Smith, Project Engineer from Erlandsen, is collaborating with Schroeder on the project. Smith stated that he will be proactive and keeping Waterville residents informed via the Town newsletter as the engineering report develops.Cost for the engineering report is estimated at $55,000.00
Mayor DeVaney advised Council that sewer rate increases will be necessary to drive grant funding.
