So maybe we'll get us a year and have to go.

I don't think I've seen an agenda of this many text amendments.

And it's because we're trying to like implement all of these like legal changes that we've got to do.

We have our our we have no reason for a closed meeting tonight, so we'll go to um our report from Jordan Valley Water Water Cons Conservancy District.

Take it away.

Well, this is myself really quick.

I'm John Richardson or Upsonny Draper and Water Pro and Resident Draper for quite a while now, and thank you for taking some time and uh want to introduce Giselle Terry.

She's chief operating officer now.

Um reappointed and really I guess we want to talk about just briefly capital projects at Jordan Valley.

There's a lot of water and exciting things going on as well, and water budget policy and then I see if we can get a question answered, but Chiselle take it away.

Yeah.

Um so yeah, just a couple of things that um we kind of want to talk about in terms of construction projects that you may or may not be aware of.

So right now we're doing two pretty um big uh vault um projects on 114th South.

We're doing one at State Street and then um one at 110 east.

So the uh State Street one is basically just corrosion issues, so we're just doing redoing the piping and the valving in there, but it will it's currently um scheduled to start in March.

It will require a brief shutdown.

Um and our operations folks are currently coordinating with your operations folks to make sure that we can keep everybody in water.

The other one um is currently under design that will be a little bit more involved because it's relocating the vault from outside of the middle of the street um so that we can get to it.

It's it's one of those dangerous faults, it's hard for us to do any work in um just because then we have to shut down the street and all that sort of thing.

So we'll actually be relocating that vault.

And that will be a little bit more involved um in terms of the work that needs to be done there.

So that is still under design.

We're probably looking at still another um nine, ten months before that one um construction gets underway.

Um couple other things are happening.

We are uh doing a uh increasing the capacity of our Jordan Valley water turtle plant.

I don't know if any of you have been there.

It is our largest.

Yeah, if you're on uh Mountain View corridor, you can't help but see it there.

Um that plant is currently a hundred and eighty MGD plants, largest in the state, but we are um doing phase one of a 75 million yellow pay um expansion.

So the first phase we'll look at um expanding the 3540 MG.

And we're just doing that because of demand.

Um and that will um benefit all of our member agencies.

Uh that we're about six months into a four-year project.

Um to do that.

We're rebuilding filters, we're doing sedimentation bases and upgrading all the key there.

And that's basically so that we can treat what we call our ULS water, which is our uh the last portion of the Central Utah project.

Um where we're bringing strawberry water across um down Spencer Canyon and into the Salt Lake Valley.

So uh we've got to strawberry flavor, right?

Strawberry reservoir, good clarification.

We do.

And we've got about 16,000 acre feet of that water that we'll be looking to treat with this expansion.

So those are some of the big projects we're we have going on right now that that are um that will directly affect Draper um in the middle.

Another thing that we kind of wanted to talk about was a water budget policy.

And throughout the last, I would say year and a half, we've really been wrestling with, you know, everybody knows that we're in a drought, we've got a certain amount of water, there's a lot of growth still going on in the state, and we're really kind of wrestling with, you know, how do we manage that?

How do we how do we make sure that we have enough water you know for developments that are happening now, but that that doesn't use up what's left for developments that might be happening later.

So we went through an analysis of population, demand, um, developable land, which we considered anything that was uh less than a 30% slope in our service area, and based upon that, we've came up with what we are calling a water budget for the rest of our service area, which is 1.35 acre feet of water per acre of land.

So that's what we're kind of broadcasted out there for all future development if within our service area, and we put a policy in place that significant developments greater than 50 uh acres, we would have a policy that they would have to meet those requirements if they did feel like their development could meet that 1.35 acre feet of water per acre, they could come with additional water, or they could come with a speech in lieu of water and say and and meet that requirement.

So we had a policy in place, we've implemented that in a couple ways.

We're currently still negotiating with the point, but we've um under that premise, and then we also some of you might be aware of the Olympia development in Carmen, and we did a development agreement with that for them to meet those requirements.

We're now looking, our board is looking at the next phase, which would be looking at um how do we implement because you know there's a lot of development that's gonna go in that's not greater than 50 acres, and so you know you get infilling different things, but we've still got to meet collectively through that service um our service area that 1.35.

So we're currently working through that with our board.

We um are looking at kind of a very flexible three phase of kind of a decision tree.

If we feel like it's warranted, we can still do a direct development uh agreement with the developer, um, similar to what we've done with Harriman and what we're kind of working through at the point.

We can also what we've been looking at is working with the member agencies depending on the hyper reference.

We have some options where we can piggyback on the development agreement that the member agency has with the developer, and we allow the member agency to basically ensure that they'll meet that requirement and also collect any water or fee in lieu of on our behalf, um, and then at some point in time they can either transfer that water to us or we can put it in the calculation for their water budget.

The other option, and in that case, we would ask that the member agency withhold any occupancy you know permits until we can ensure that they're gonna meet that requirement.

The other option is that we can basically give the member agency and say, this is what based upon this developable land in your in your service area, you've got X amount of water.

We're gonna leave it up to you to how you implement that with development, but that's it.

So if for some reason, you know, one development that comes in early, like way overspends their water budget, then it's gonna be up to you to figure out how to implement that with later developments.

Can you help put this in perspective?
