3.         Discussion and update regarding the Recharge Project:  Mr. Livingston reported that the driller will be at the site on Friday, April 4, 2008 and will be ready to start drilling the monitoring well on Monday, April 7, 2008.  It should take a week to ten days to drill the well.  The well will be approximately 300 feet deep.  Mr. Livingston stated that ADWR advised that as soon as the well is drilled they would come on site and approve the project. 

Mr. Livingston also advised that he had to register the 20 foot well that is next to the canal because ADWR required it after all.  Mr. Livingston will organize an opening for the facility and invite the Board to come and see the project after it is approved by ADWR.  

4.         Discussion and possible action regarding the Reclaimed Water Reuse Agreement with the Arizona City Golf Course:  Mr. McCarville stated that they were just there to answer any questions that the Board may have.  He then stated that they have not heard anything from Mr. Sullivan’s office about the amended agreement.  Mr. Sullivan stated that he had sent them a letter on Friday March 28, 2008.

Mr. Sullivan told Mr. McCarville that he was curious about the “take it” or “leave it” prospective of the amended agreement.  He asked Mr. McCarville if they were taking counter offers.  Mr. McCarville stated that it depends on what the counter offer is.  He stated that he and his clients are poised to go to court.  They want the Board to admit that the Arizona City Golf Course had a valid agreement with the Sanitary District and he asked that the Board admit that the agreement is valid right now.

Member Autry told the Arizona City Golf Course that under no circumstances was the District going to arbitrarily stop flows to the golf course.

Member McKenzie told Mr. McCarville that if they look at the flow chart they can see that the District is making every effort to send them as much water as possible.
