MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
$700,000.00 DUE SEWER CONSTRUCTION FUND FROM RUNNING EXPENSE FUND
Member Gibbs questioned Mr. Horstkotte, District Manager-Engineer, relative
to the $700,000.00 the Running Expense Fund owes to the Sewer Construction Fund.
Mr. Horstkotte stated the costs for all Local Improvement District work,
contract payments, engineering, etc., are maintained in the Running Expense
Fund. In District financing of Local Improvement Districts No. 44 and No. 45,
it was necessary that $700,000.00 be transferred to the Running Expense Fund
for this purpose. After the bonds covering the unpaid assessments are sold
and funds from this source credited to the Running Expense Fund for Local
Improvement Districts No. 44 and No. 45, then the $700,000.00 can be returned
to the Sewer Construction Fund. The Board had approved the original transfer
of funds when needed in the Running Expense Fund.
Interest on these funds is charged to the Assessment Districts for the
time the funds are used.
ACCEPTANCE OF EASEMENT FROM RHEEM CALIFORNIA LAND CO.
It was moved by Member Gibbs, seconded by Member Rustigian, that the
