OLD BUSINESS Chairperson Dugan said that a request for a presentation of the changes since the Water Regionalization Study be given to update the board members on the current status of the plan. He asked Jon Coleman to cover the changes in population. Jon passed out some population tables from the plan,which he had modified by writing in the new 2000 census numbers for each community in the study. He also revised the TCRPC population projections,which were just updated this past year. Also the TCRPC has been working on some maps, which were on the wall, of existing and proposed water and sewer service areas. He noted that these were still very much in draft form and had not been locally reviewed as yet. Several board members noted areas on the maps that needed to be revised. Coleman said he would have plots made to send out for local review and correction. Clyde Dugan passed out a map from the 1992 Regional Water Feasibility Study,Figure S-4; "Required- System Improvements-Finished Water Improvement, Alternative 111", which showed suggested system improvements through the year 2020. He also passed out a color-coded map, which illustrated how the current system has been developed. Clyde pointed out where the proposed plan improvements and the current system were similar or different and what projects had not been developed as yet. He thought that about half of what had been proposed had actually been completed. The plan is being implemented at a slower rate than was anticipated in the 1992 Study. There was general consensus that the plan did not need to be updated for several years, but we should continue to monitor its implementation. Page 2 of 3 NEW BUSINESS Banking Resolution Res.
