April 11, 1977 Page 2 <br />Acting Mayor Hodges agreed that the situation should be looked <br />into, and Engineer Hubbard stated that last year the City <br />had pumped a great deal of water but they had been able to <br />keep up with the demand. Water restrictions had been discussed <br />previously but Eng. Hubbard does not expect that the City will <br />have any water problem this year or in the future. Also, <br />there are rumors that the Governor may enforce some type of <br />water restriction so it would be best to wait and see what <br />action he takes. <br />Councilmember Baumgartner stated that most cities that had <br />experienced problems had drawn their water supply from the <br />river. Eng. Hubbard stated that the City has seven wells and <br />last year they only drew from four at a time. <br />Admin. Achen stated that he had previously discussed this with <br />the Public Works Superintendent, who feels that action <br />should be taken early. The problem is not a shortage in supply <br />but rather in the mechanical ability to take the water out of <br />the ground and distribute it. Peak usage has been five or <br />six times the normal usage but the peak lasts for only two <br />weeks, and it is not felt that the City should pay for more <br />sophisticated equipment 52 weeks a year when it is only used <br />two weeks a year. <br />APPROVAL OF CONSENT AGENDA <br />MSP (Baumgartner - Ziebarth) to approve the consent agenda <br />as follows: 4 ayes <br />ITEM A.
