WATER DEPARTMENT REPORT - Mr. Wessell reported on sewage plant emissions and the Water Department's responsi- bility and liability. A new rule requiring higher emission standards (Rule 1110) has been adopted by the Air Quality Management District which stipulates the possibility of a $1000 per day fine for violation. The Water Department does have old engines that do not meet the standards but has taken action by submitting plans to Air Quality Management District which should be accepted until new equipment is on line. There is no litigation or pending information regarding litigation in this matter. The Committee is to be informed as changes or actions occur. Mr, Wessel stated that he had no doubt that the Air Quality Management District would approve the Department's plans submitted and that the chances are virtually "nil" that the City would be fined by AQ~ID. 2. HANDICAPPED QUALITY OF LIFE PROGRAM ENHANCEMENTS- Mr. Robert Neves made a presentation regarding a "Blue Crew. team that would involve handicapped people working for/with Public Buildings Department to cite violators in handicapped parking spaces. The Committee endorsed the concept and asked that staff coordinate with Mr. Neves and City Administrator to provide a concrete proposal and bring to the Council. The Committee also recommended that the Council direct the Commission for Disabled Persons to make a study of the number of handicapped parking spaces required in the City. Mr. OVerstreet and Mr. Neves will review all the public building surveys, analyze requirements and staff will cost them. The Committee recommended that the Mayor fill the Design Review Commission vacancy with a member from the Commission. The Committee recommended that the City Administrator brief the City Engineer, Planning Director and Building and Safety Superintendent and provide a memo to Design Review Commission on Title 24. These departments should be aware of the increased cost of retrofit methods versus design construction mandates. .' f t c . . . . tabled. a recom- 3.
