SUMMARY: Attached as Exhibit 1-A is the revised Ordinance
No. 170, “2016 Rule Amendment Ordinance” that was previously reviewed by the
Water Demand Committee and that has been amended to remove the State Model
Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance provisions that will be addressed in a separate
ordinance.
DISCUSSION: The ordinance has been written with an explanation of the proposed changes in each section. The ordinance amends the most critical topics identified and discussed with the Water Demand Committee, including the 2015 changes to the California Code of Regulations (Title 20, Sections 1601-1608) and the irrigation efficiency requirements of the State Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance that are specifically called out in MPWMD Rule 142.
RECOMMENDATION: The Committee should review the draft ordinance and consider a recommendation to the Board.
