_____
Finance Committee reported:
The Corimittee had diligentl~ï studied the problems
involved in com~letin~the joint program of the Sanitation
Districts,and had analyzed various methods which night
accomplish the construction of a countywide sewera~e
disposal system including an ocean outfall 7000 feet in
length,
~lapse of tine since the bonds were voted in l9L~8 had
considerably reduced the value of funds available for
construction purposes;and the Corirriittee had found the
Modification Plan the only one,with certain revisions due
to rise in cost since the plan was presented in l9~l,which
it could reconriend to the Boards for adoption.
The Committee had studied and developed a Revised
Modification Plan which would offer the features of building
facilities with funds available,being a flexible plan and
yet would provide for construction of the facilities in the
shortest period of tine.
Copies of the Revised Modification Plan were presented to the
Directors,to’~ether with tabulations on the detailed estimates of
construction,contin~enc lea,en’:4neering supervision and inspection,
less funds to be made available from Chapter 20 Funds —the aggregate
total for expenditures from bond funds estimated at $7,292,702;and
tabulations on tiie Districts’bond funds available after deduction
of cost of purchase of new J.0.S.dic~ester,etc.—aggregating
~8,i08,00o,leaving ~8l5,298 reserve for all other costs.
Recommendations of Chairman Warner reported the unanimous
the Finance Committee recommendations of the Finance Conriitte~
to be as follows:
1.All engineering supervision and inspection of construction
to be performed by the design ei~gineers.
2.Adoption of the Revised Modification Plan,copies of which
had been submitted to the Directors,
3.That in the research of data on the plan recommended,
the Committee became aware of the need of a small committeE
to study many matters of policy and methods of procedure
for the benefit of the Districts at this time;and that the.
matter of operational program will require a great deal of
planning which could be expedited by study while the
construction phase is in progress.
The Finance Committee unanimously recommend that the
Boards consider the formation of a small committee for
study of method of policy and procedure for report to
the Boards.
