ITEMS FOR BOARD ACTION Lakeside Park Water Company has relied upon the District for backup water supply in emergencies. Recently, due to Lakeside Water Company's faulty lake intake, their request for backup water supply has become frequent. District staff concluded frequent and routine requests for water cannot be considered an emergency and recommended a long term agreement be negotiated with Lakeside Water Company that would include the full cost of connecting to the District's water system. Members of the Lakeside Park Association outlined the status of the Lakeside Park Water Company. Jess Morehouse, from the Department of Health Services, gave a chronological summary of the regulatory requirements imposed by the Surface Treatment Rule and reported on the various activities by Lakeside Park Association to bring their system into compliance. He expressed concern that Lakeside has not approached the District with a proposal. Bob Persson, water system manager for Lakeside Park Association described the condition of the lake intake, estimated a repair schedule, and proposed an extension for use of the intertie until after Lakeside Park Association's November 12, 1994 recall/election results are known, at that time, they will negotiate a long term agreement with the District.
