Mr. Lang explained bhat by using the 1913 Improvement Act, the fDistrict will acquire `these improvements upon their completion. The individuals who will be purchasing the bonds have agreed to put the money in advance in a special account, and the City will be authorized � to draw on tliis money up to $100,000 to cover progress payments to � the contractor.

The Vote: � Unanimous A.yes I i , � � 115 � REGIONA,L SEW ERAGE S TUDY - Loring Hanson, Division Manager for CH2M Hill,- reviewed a progress report on the Regional Sewerage Study his firm is makfng under a con- tract with the County of Shasta. Mr. Hanson s.tated that;several alter- native facility pl:ans (16-20) have bee,n evaluat:ed and that, the plan labeled "A.lternative 6c'! appears to be the most.likely candidate.for the "Recommended Plan" in the project report to be subrnitted to the State and EPA. with a request for grant funds. The entities included in this Plan are Shasta County, City of Redding, Enterprise Public Utility District, and Caseade Public �Utility Di�strict. Mr.. Hanson said that Alternative 6c�does not include a collectiori system, only interceptor systems and waste treatm.ent. In the written report submitted by Mr . Hanson, administrative alternatives with advan- tages and disadvantages were outlined, Mr. Hanson did not review the advantages and disadvantages but did comrrient on the �various adrninistrative alternatives availa�ble. H.e noted that the deadline for filing an application for a grant is November l; how,ever, .a request has been made for an extension to March l, 1975. March 1 is the final date for 1974�-75 projects . Mr. Hanson said that one major .question remains; i,e. , the determination of the agency to administer this `i��j ``"/, plan. He stated that the City of Redding and Enterprise Public Utility � ��J District are obligated to move. ahead with this project. Under the present time line the project would not be in operation, until 1978. The EPUD is faced with a deadline for sewage treatment upgrade, and the City is behind schedule in discharge requirements set for 1976. Mr. Hanson said .he doubted that either the City or •E�PUD could _obtain grant funds to build their own facilities. He commented that the method of allocating the costs of the administrative agency could be determined after it has been decided.which agency will ad-minister the Plan. Mayor Denny referred to a memo from the City Mariager to Council, dated July �12, 1974, which memo is .made a part of these xninutes by reference. In sumrnary, the City Manager and other members of staff do not feel that sufficient�detailed factual information re costs and available alternatives has been provided for; meaningful dis:cussion or a decision re implementation of a Plan. Councilman Pugh expressed conce�rn that only. A.lternative 6c was . presented for consideration, He felt that Council should have the benefit of reviewing the other alternatives , Mr. Pugh also questibned Mr. H.anson as .to �how the City would be reimbursed for its capital outlay at the Clear Creek Sewage Treatment Plant. ... . . ,, � . . , Mr. Hanson. said=that cornparative. cost figures -are available for all of the other alternatives and that they were presented to City staff � members, He noted that the cost difference between any of the alternatives is very small. Mr. Hanson said that he would be happy to put together any additional information�that Council may wish. City Attorney Murphy asked Mr. Hanson if�it wasn't a fact that the present contract-with� the.County-provides ;that. recommendations be ' made as to cost allocation, Mr, Hanson replied that his firm can make recommendations but cannot guarantee allocation �of.costs. � .
