Mr. Dendy - they were independent, w/own sewer system; back in early 70’s the city had required regionalization - they did that - the county still owns the wells, but are owned by the county and operated by the city.

McGowan - Matt - wants to understand the methodology - for water charged based on water usage. for sewer - based the same as for a city resident. multiply water consumption usage
Opened public hearing
Bill Dendy - spoke of problems, don’t want sewer fees raised, thinks it’s unfair- thinks they pay 3x more than regular davis residents; are o.k. w/water rates, but not with sewer; El Macero has bigger lots - thinks there is a problem w/the formula; wants to have board sit down w/city and address issue;
Yamada - thanked regina espinoza, and thanked mr. Dendy for being chair of the El Macero CSA. Yamada indicated she is in contact w/Davis City Council about this process, and also going forward. Matt - question re: water rates, no difference on sewer, depends on number of flushes, no. of peo., is this a standard way? wants to understand our obligation to the County; if methodology is faulty, then we need to - difficult process to go through.
Helen - one suggestion in letter - is to further research what it would take to put a meter system on the sewer; raised issue, about how formula;
Mr. Dendy - they were independent, w/own sewer system; back in early 70’s the city had required regionalization - they did that - the county still owns the wells, but are owned by the county and operated by the city.
Helen - in your recommendation to not include the raise for sewer, that's not the county's responsibility; North Davis Meadows opted to go forward; Mr. Dendy indicated the safety code does not allow them to shut the system (sewer down)

Regina - there are various reasons, meter reading issue, a leak, how hard is it to resolve?
Duane - could you resolve these things easily, it’s o.k.

Hope - addressed questions to mr. rexroad. -
Yamada - thinks the whole prop 218 process needs to be addressed.
Mike - have two obligations; need to advocate for our constituents; not soup yet, need to have more interactions w/city of davis.
