Adjourned Meeting/Hearing --2-- 3/5/81 President Neal Olson explained to all present that the Utility District has come a long way in the last few years; we received an award for being the most efficient operating plant in the Northern California area - however, it still does not solve the dilemna the dis+_rict faces as long as we have to operate and advanced wastewater treatment plant. He further stated, that the district wants to go into secondary treatment, and this would not be near as expensive as what we are spending to keep the plant operating under tertiary; and our in~nediate goal now is to raise one-million plus for the operation of the District for 1981 of which a portion of that will be put into reserve, The last 4 years, President Neal stated, we have expended not quite one-million dollars bringing the plant back to order. There are 3 alternatives that the Board will consider at this meet- ing tonight: (1) Maintain $1740 connection charge; (2) Increase to $3990 per connection charge; (3) An intermendiate level of increase. and the revenues are to be used for: (1) Meeting increased cost of operating advanced wastewater treatment plant; (2) Fixed asset replacement fund for replacement of treatment plant equipment; (3) Local share of design, of plant and Alpine County land application system modifications. President Neal Olson requested Manager Cofer to explain the costs to the plant over the past few years, showing where the expenses are, why the money is need- ed and why we are striving for secondary treatment and wanting to eliminate the advanced treatment at our present plant. Following Manager Cofer's presentation, President Olson opened the floor to those interested in speaking. The following did make con~nents: Ken Hoffman, N. Woods, K. Frank, Nat Sinclair, V.
