F-� MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, to approve and authorize the Chairman to execute the contract with Brown and Caldwell Consultants in the amount of $185,500.00 for an update of our Master Water, Wastewater and Effluent Disposal Plan, as recommended by staff. Commissioner Bowman wondered if projections can be based on a lower per capita demand, because we should encourage conservation of potable water and work for a lower per capita demand of potable water and in that way cut down on the wastewater stream. Director Pinto pointed out that the rate structure encourages potable water conservation to reduce the demand which may allow us to reduce the size of our systems and that would result in an adjusted impact fee. This study will make comparisons of potable water conservation and resulting pipe sizes, then balance out the economics and make recommendations on that basis. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. It was voted on and carried unanimously. SAID CONTRACT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF CLERK TO THE BOARD CATHOLIC CHARITIES GRANT APPLICATION Chairman Eggert recounted that in 1990 she wrote a letter of support and last year Chairman Bird did likewise, but those letters were before they had a site plan. Now their site plan is completed and they requested a letter of support on that basis. ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously authorized the Chairman to send a letter supporting Catholic Charities' Application to the State of Florida Health and Rehabilitative Services for a Federal Emergency Grant for the Homeless.
