M Commissioner Eggert that a five-year plan should be good for five years, but in our case there are major differences, concurrency as well as many other things, that have impacted on the plan in the past two years, as well as our growth pattern. He felt there is no question we should update the master plan. Commissioner Scurlock raised the point of the reuse master plan, and Administrator Chandler saw it in terms of being integrated with a total master plan. At present we have three separate plans that have been developed, one in 1987, one in 1988 and the last one last year, and the water and wastewater would require the major work. He added all three plans should be combined to gain a sense of direction in utilities, and the individual specialties would be planned within the master plan. Commissioner Scurlock asked about the cost of the proposed study, but Administrator Chandler did not believe that has been determined yet. Director Pinto felt it should be less than $100,000. Commissioner Eggert asked how drainage will affect a master plan like this, and Administrator Chandler saw it as a separate entity altogether. Director Pinto felt because there is interaction between all the districts, we must look closely at available rights-of-way. Commissioner Scurlock recalled a joint city -county drainage study costing $385,000 which was subsequently dismissed, and Chairman Bird said one of reasons was the final cost estimate to implement it scared everybody to death. Commissioner Scurlock felt more dialogue is needed because of Commissioner Eggert's concern about timing, along with Chairman Bird's concern about not completely rewriting the master plan, and his own concern regarding the scope of services. Chairman Bird suggested staff develop the scope of services and bring it back to the Board so that we all understand it and then go to negotiations. Director Pinto felt it should be done before we advertise. 19 BOOK 8J- Ft°ivE D -L f
