Report of the Mr.Nisson stated,the judge
had returned a decision in
the condemnation lawsuit,ruling
in favor of the Districts on the amount of land.requested.
Mr.Nisson and Mr.Ashton reported the three attorneys
had developed an outline on “streamlining”the adminis
trative agency and concuh’ed in the recommendation that
each District adopt its individual budget;and stated that
routine business of the Districts and disbursement of funds
within the amounts so budgeted may then be administered
by whatever agency the District Boards establish.
The attorneys advised the following types of adminis
t.rative agencies will be presented for consideration:
1.A Sanitation District and.its governing board
2.An agency having a representative from each
District,operating under the Joint Powers Act
By use of either type of these agencies it would be
possible for the whr~1e of the Boards to meet less frequently,
possibly in the beginning once a month or quarterly,and
later on even,less often.

administration of business of the Districts is to
continue under the jurisdiction of the joint Boards
until there has been established a smaller administrative
agency.
