APPROVAL OF AGENDA MOTION: Council Member Humpage moved approval of the agenda; seconded by Vice Mayor Paterno; motion carried unanimously 5-0. NEW BUSINESS Public Hearing to consider and make recommendations to the Village Council with regard to the following: 1. Ordinance 1-09, First Reading, Manager Couzzo noted that as a requirement of the Comprehensive Plan documentation was going to the State explaining the intent of the Village along with present and future plans. He noted it had become more convoluted because of the consumptive use permit, water supply plan and a difference in population criteria. Council Member Humpage questioned if the Encon line which was in close proximity to Tequesta Park could be used to irrigate the park in order to take the load off Tequesta's wells. Manager Couzzo pointed out that the plan did not include that at present but felt the idea had potential to be discussed in the future. Mr. Russell White, Public Services Manager, explained that Encon allocated the reused water and a storage tank and pump system would be necessary to make irrigation plausible. Manager Couzzo elaborated that an analysis would need to be completed previous to consideration. Council Member Humpage questioned figures that referred to the aquifer. Chris Dean, Arcadis Representative, explained the figures related to estimated usage based on population and the Village's used far below the estimated figure. Mr. Dean emphasized that the plan could be amended. He explained drought allocations and development allowances were considered in projections and usage would be restricted requiring usage proof to adjust figures.
