<br />COMMUNITY SERVICES DIRECTOR'S REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />Water Division
<br />Trinity Water Company
<br />Community Services Director Earl Young read his memorandum dated July 29, 1976, regarding the meetings and negotiations
<br />that have been carried on between the City of Colton and the Trinity Water Company, in effort to find an equitable
<br />solution whereby the City of Colton can serve water to the people living on Rosedale Avenue, Mary Knoll Drive and
<br />Berkeley Court.
<br />Mr. Young continued with the report, stating that Staff suggests the City Council consider and approve the following:
<br />1. Trinity Water Company transfer, by Grant Deed, to the City of Colton the water mains, meters, and appurtenances
<br />within the street right-of-ways of Rosedale Avenue, Mary Knoll Drive and Berkeley Court.
<br />2. The property owners of this area involved make application with the Finance Department for water service and
<br />also make arrangements with the Finance Department for the paying of the fees.
<br />3. Once these things have been accomplished, the City would then make the necessary connection at La Cadena and
<br />Mary Knoll Drives to deliver water.
<br />Mr. Young also referred to a letter dated August 3, 1976, from Mr. Harry V. Roquet, President of Trinity Water
<br />Company, requesting that the City Council give this matter their very serious consideration.
<br />Councilman Rehrer felt the report as outlined by Staff did not really clearly state the facts, and before the City
<br />Council makes any kind of decision or considers any kind of an agreement, we should have some advice from the City
<br />Attorney.
<br />Mayor Beltran and Councilman Gonzales felt it is the duty of the City to be concerned with the health, safety and
<br />welfare of all members of the community.
<br />After additional discussion among Council members, Staff, the City Attorney and the proponents, moved by Councilman
<br />Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Hayes, that no action on this matter be taken until the City Attorney and the attorney
<br />representing the Trinity Water Company can meet to discuss and study all legal documents concerning this matter.
<br />Vote was unanimous.
