SUBJECT :
Reliability Reserve City Charter Languag e
Councilmember Carter requested the specific City Charter language relative to the reliability
reserve and the date that it was adopted . Section 909 of the City Charter is shown below and wa s
added by a community vote on Measure "P" on November 5, 1996 .
"As identified in the Water Management Element of the General Plan, the City shal l
strive to acquire additional water supplies as a "reliability reserve" to protect the City fro m
future water shortages. Once the City has acquired a portion or all of the reliability reserve, th e
additional water supply shall only be used to meet City needs during unpredictable changes suc h
as a new worst case drought, loss of one of the City's water sources, contamination of a source ,
or failure of a new source to provide projected yield, and not to allow additional development ."
