Action:
The Board will consider approval
of the Long Ridge/Well N-31 Addition to the Santa Lucia Preserve Water
Distribution System (SLPWDS). With advances in information technology,
it was discovered that certain SLPWDS wells previously believed to be outside
the District boundary are actually within the District. This action focuses
on formally acknowledging the SLPWDS wells and setting appropriate system
limits pursuant to District Rules 20-22. |

Action: The
Board will consider an application to enable future service by California
American Water (CAW) to the proposed Monterey Bay Shores Ecoresort in Sand
City. Up to 90 acre-feet per year of CAW service to the parcel would be
based on use of water rights in the Seaside Groundwater Basin held by the
resort property owner. The District will rely on previous environmental
review certified by the City of Sand City, as well as an October 2008
Addendum, which describes how the project has been downsized and revised to
be more water efficient. This item was
continued from the November 17, 2008 Board meeting. |
