RE: Updated Missing Resolutions
*****************************************************************
I compared all Resolutions from your binders to the microfilms/
microfiche. Attached please find the old list of missing
resolutions, and the updated list . The updated list differs from
the old list in the following ways :
- Resolutions have been found and copied to the binders that
were originally listed as missing. These are resolutions 33 ,
484, 485, 757, 774, 1479, and 1925 .
- Resolutions that were not listed as missing (but actually are)
that were not listed on the old list . These are resolutions
2017, 2031, 2045, 2046, 2049, 2321, and 2478 .
- I found several Resolutions in the books that were not
recorded on microfilm. The numbers for these are :
362 2074 2122
363 2075 2123
364 2083 2132
390 2084 2142
401-417A 2100 2161
419 2113 2178
420 2114 •
1890 2118
Should I copy these from the books and make arrangements to have
microfilmed?
This project is finished!

RE: REVIEW OF SEWER ORDINANCES
******************************************************************
I have reviewed the Ordinances which address sewer units (see Pat's
memo attached) . My findings are as follows:
Ordinance 24 (1956)
First Ordinance which discussed the Construction of private sewer
laterals and connection to District-owned sewer lines. Did not set
service charges.
Ordinance 34 ( 1958)
Titled: STPUD Sewer Charges Ordinance. Monthly service charge
$.50 per unit; minimum charge of $1. 00 per month. Schedule of
units: (in part)
a) Homes, apartments and motels: Each kitchen unit/1 unit;
each bath/1 unit; each garbage disposal/1 unit.
e) Laundromats/2 units per machine.
Section 3 . 03 - Special Charges: Facilities in commercial estab-
lishments discharging extraordinary amounts of waste into the
sewage system shall be subject to such charges and to such
conditions as may be set by the Board.
Ordinance 114 (1964)
Rescinded Ordinance 34; kept same charges but required payment one
year in advance.
Ordinance 195 (1970)
Amended schedule of units in Ordinance 114 to read:
a) Homes, apartments: A minimum of 3 units for each home or
apartment plus an additional unit for each bath or half-
bath in excess of two baths.
(Comment: No mention of garbage disposals)
Ordinance 286 (1978)
Amended schedule of units in Ordinances 114 & 195 to read:
a) Homes and apartments: A minimum of 3 units for each home
or each apartment plus an additional unit for each bath
or half-bath in excess of 2 baths, except that a studio
apartment shall be 2 sewer units.
(Comment: the type concerning studio apartments is in
different type than the rest of the Ordinance. Jim Jones
voted for this Ordinance. Jim, can you remember discus-
sion at the meeting?)
Ordinance 300 (1979)
This Ordinance was a complete rewrite of the sewer ordinance. It
superseded the previous ordinances; added the definition of a sewer
unit:
Section 1.27 - Sewer Unit is an estimated measurement of flow
and strength of waste-water discharged to the treatment
facilities. A sewer unit is used for the purposes of determi-
nation of assessment of sewer service charges. (emphasis
added)
(No changes to schedule of units. )
Ordinance 359 - 1983 (our current ordinance)
Superseded Ordinance 300. Added the definition of "Studio
Apartment" :
Section 1. 30 - Studio Apartment is one (1) kitchen, living and
sleeping area all in one room and one (1) bathroom.
(No changes to schedule of units. )

RE: ORDINANCES RELATED TO SEWER UNITS
******************************************************************
Baer, you asked me to research the Ordinances to see when the
District adopted the sewer unit system.
I reviewed all the Ordinances listed below, but Sue copied only
those with an (*) . These represent the Ordinances which reference
"units" or "sewer units" and in the more recent ones, "sewer unit
transfers" . I included the transfer ordinances because I thought
the info. might be helpful.
