CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT For the Council Meeting of September 15, 1998 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL: HENRY T. GARCIA, CITY MANAGE FROM: THOMAS K. CLARKE, UTILITY DIRECTO SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF 1998 WATER AND WASTEWATER MASTER PLANS DATE: AUGUST 31, 1998 BACKGROUND: On February 1, 1994 Council awarded Kennedy -Jenks the contract for updating the 1987 Wastewater Master Plan; and on March 5, 1996 Council awarded Kreiger and Steward the contract for updating the 1991 Water Master Plan. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: Wastewater Master Plan: Kennedy -Jenks did not elaborate on the work required at the Wastewater Treatment Plant since e a comprehensive Title 22 Report had already been accompliShec+. The Title 22 Report is incorporated in the Wastewater Master Planin the Appendices. The Wastewater Master Plan did provide a comprehensive report on the needed capital improvements for current use as well as future expansion. The capital improvements have been included in the Rate Study presented to Council in May, 1998. The Water Master Plan prepared by Krieger and Stewart places emphasis on the existing infrastructure needs. The Water Master Plan also expanded on the 1991 Water Master Plan, which emphasized future water infrastructure needs for new development. Since the future water infrastructure needs are not required until new development occurs, and will be paid for, or constructed by, each new development, immediate action by the City is not required. This section is used as a "blueprint" for new development, and can be altered to fit the water needs as they change. The Water Master Plan includes the following capital improvements: 1. The Central Zone's water needs. Each summer, due to the higher density of population and businesses in this zone, it _ uses more water than any other zone. Two new reservoirs sites have been identified, and the hydraulic calculations made by Kreiger and Stewart will determine which site should be developed first. In addition to two new reservoirs, Well #25 will be drilled this fiscal year. This Well will discharge to the 3 MG La Loma Reservoir (constructed in 1979), which provides Item # 10
