Specific Requests) or Recommendation(s) & Background &
Justification
I. RECOMMENDATION
AUTHORIZE the Chief Engineer to arrange for the connecting of
three residences to the Oakley Water District system.
11. FINANCIAL IMPACT
The estimated cost of $25, 000 will be funded by drainage fees
collected in Drainage Area 29H.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION✓BACKGROUND
On February 23 , 1988, the Board of Supervisors amended the
drainage plan for Drainage Area 29H. At the hearing, Mr. R.
Griffin expressed his concern regarding possible contamination
of his well, his only source of potable water; due to ground
water seepage from the proposed detention basin adjacent to his
property.
The District agrees that the possibility of well contamination
exists. The cost to complete a detail study of the problem will
exceed the cost of connecting the potentially affected properties
to the Oakley water system. Consequently, it is recommended that
these residences be connected to the Oakley water system in lieu
of the study and that the connection occur prior to the drainage
entering the new detention basin.
