MORAGA AND SAN RAMON WATERSHEDS
The memorandum dated November 28, 1967, to the Members of the District
Board, relating to Watershed 10, Moraga Basin, and San Ramon Watershed, was
discussed with Mr. Horstkotte, General Manager-Chief Engineer.
The revision of watershed charges for Watershed 10, Moraga Basin,
presented no problems.
The Board Members questioned the advisability of eliminating the present
six watersheds and consolidating into two watersheds.
Board Members suggested that it might be more equitable to consider
multiple charges for overlapping watersheds.
Mr. Horstkotte stated that it would be necessary to reframe the charges.
After discussion, the matter was continued to February 1, 1968.
1968 SALARY SCHEDULE
Member Allan stated that the salary schedule recommendations of the staff
and Personnel Committee, along with basic data, was briefly discussed at the
previous meeting and continued to this meeting so that Members of the Board could
review the data and recommendations.
Member Allan answered questions from other Board Members and gave the
reasons for certain changes in classifications and salary recommendations.
After the Members of the Board had completed their discussion, President
Gibbs asked if anyone in the audience wished to be heard.
Mr. Boneysteele, who will become a Member of the Board in January, discussed
the matter with the Board Members and asked questions as to fringe benefits.

MARTINEZ ANNEXATION
Mr. Calvin E. Monson, City Manager of the City of Martinez, presented a
letter addressed to the Board of Directors dated December 21, 1967, requesting
that the City and District work out a rebate formula whereby the City will
participate in rebates from watershed collections and recover, along with the
District, funds they will be advancing for the project.
Mr. Horstkotte, General Manager-Chief Engineer, stated this was con-
sistent with District policy. He stated that only a portion of the funds
to be provided for the project by the City are eligible for rebate, and, if
the Board was in agreement, he suggested the District staff work with the
City staff and work out a formula.

to amend the present contract, but by a simple clarification it can be tied to
the contract.
