  • Agreement terminology • Negotiating and approval process • Terms and conditions of the joint powers agreement • Wastewater and water purchase agreements, and • Permitting, design, construction and operation considerations.
  • The ECAWPP has a potential of producing up to 12,800 acre-feet of local water supply that would be delivered to Lake Jennings.

AGENDA
REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Wednesday, November 7, 6pm
7811 University Avenue, La Mesa, CA 91942-0427
 
Happy Election Day! 12 years ago I was elected to the Helix Water District Board of Directors and I have worked hard for you! As an engineer and your current Board President, I can tell you much has changed in these 12 short/long  years at Helix Water District. There has been continuous improvements at the district and I want you to see them, too. From new online payment options, to award-winning communications and financial management policies, this district works hard to provide you with exemplary service, and to be a resource and a good neighbor. This year I was up for re-election, however, no one ran against me, so, it is my pleasure to serve you for another 4 years! Thank you to all of you who voted today, there are many elections, local, state and federal that affect us all. I voted, and I will continue to be the voice for you at all levels. Water agencies cross many jurisdictions (ie. local wholesalers, state and federal regulations and funding) and I am always ready to be a voice for safe, reliable and affordable water for Helix Water District and for you!
 
Interesting Agenda Items:
 
Item 9 (Page 142). The Board Consider Changes to the Policies and Procedures Manual and Set the Date and Time of the Public Hearing

• Eight pages of noted proposed changes. This did not go through any Board committees, so we will be going through the proposed changes at the meeting tomorrow. Much of it is clarification and some district fee changes. (Section 2.12 – Pages 200‐218 Miscellaneous fee changes)

 
As always, I welcome your comments and feedback.
