Roy Hanff, 569 Lawrence Drive, questioned the filing date of Mr. Lenger's
letter of May 17, 1982. He stated there was no proof of when the city
actually received the letter. He stated he had gone to the Planning
Commission and asked to see the city ledger to see when the amount was
deposited; all he got was Mr. Lenger's letter and never received the
city ledger. He felt like somebody might be trying to cover up something
and Council may be continuing something that may never be annexed to the
city. He thought Council should postpone voting until the ledger was
found to prove the date the letter and deposit were received.
Toby Ross, Community Development Director, was satisfied that the
application and handwritten letter were received in time. He did not
believe anyone would change a date to accommodate the developer.
Geoff Grote, Assistant City Administrative Officer, stated he discussed
this matter with Mr. Bruce who indicated the letter had come in on May
17, 1982, and was received by the office.
Toby Ross indicated if a check is received prior to 3:00 p.m., it is
stamped that day, but this is not a good indication of when the appli-
cation was received.
Vice -Mayor Dunin declared the public hearing closed.

C O M M U N I C A T I O N S
Dave Romero, Public Services Director, reported on the water crisis that
day. He said a broken trunk main that serves the Terrace Hill and the
v 1
entire Johnson Avenue area was discovered at 1:30 a.m. The line that
split was cast iron, 16 inches in diameter, ! inch wall thickness and
installed in 1957. The main reservoir was almost drained out and
pavement was severely damaged. They had a piece of pipe to fit and were
able to put it in at approximately 10:00 a.m. The rest of the day was
spent trying to fill up tanks at the Johnson Avenue area. He indicated
people at high elevations were out'of water and there were traffic jams;
however, by 3:00 p.m. all water was on and traffic was restored to near
normal. He was concerned because they did not have any way to bypass
this main trunk line; and he would come back with a proposal so they
could bypass a main trunk line in the future.
Councilwoman Dovey questioned what the potential was for this happening
again.
Dave Romero stated that heavy walled cast iron pipe should not really
fail at all'. He indicated it happened a few years ago near the Madonna
Road Plaza. The staff has since changed specs but there is still no
real way to check it. He stated they try to keep one or two additional
pieces of every size pipe available.
Vice -Mayor Dunin requested in a case of near catastrophe to let the
Councilmembers know as soon as possible so they can be in a position to
answer calls without having to refer people to other departments.
Councilwoman Dovey was concerned about getting the word out so people
would realize they needed to conserve water. The measures taken to
accomplish this (i.e., driving through the neighborhood with a bullhorn;
radio announcements, etc.) would have to be determined on a case -to -case
basis.
Dave Romero felt it depended upon whether it was a life threatening
situation.

changing the priorities.
