DISCUSSION RE ROSSMOOR LEISURE \riORLD DEVELOPHENT IN TICE VAl.IEY
Hr. Horstkotte, District l'-Ianager-Engineer, stated that each Member of
the Board had received a memorandum with the staff recommendation8 for
modified charges for the development because of the limitation on occupancy
for each residential unit.
President Mitchell stated that he was not convinced that the development
should enjoy a preference over other co~~ercial users of the District system.
He stated that the Board established the extra charge for high density uses on
an area-wide basis rather than on an individual basis.
Mr. Horstkotte stated that the line installed by the Del Valle High School
on a rebate basis would be used until it approached capacity and than they would
be required to install a parallel line for needed capacity.
President Mitchell stated that the Board could consider moðification of
charges when the parallel line was installed.
Member Gibbs stated that the charge was for higher densities than planned
for and the treatment facilities should also be considered.
Mr. Carl Andrews, representing the Rossmoor development, stated that in
other developments they had showed an average occupancy of 1.7, with no
children ~llowed.
President Mitchell stated that the Board should receive evidence of deed
restrictions as to occupancy.
Member Gibbs asked about a third adult.
Mr. Andrews stated that the problem is a little complicated in that
people in the development will set their own rules by self determination.
President Nitchell questioned Nr. Andrews about the number of units per
acre.

Member Fisher stated that the District should recover all capital costs
incurred by the District as a result of the higher densities than anticipated
in the Brmm and CaldN"€ll report. He stated that the capital requirements
could be related to the additional people to be provided for.
~~. Horstkotte stated he would submit further information, as suggested.
