SUMMARY STATEMENT:
As the City of McCall undertakes a new Utility Rate Study, a key component is the Capital Improvements needed in the Water System. The need for these Capital Improvements is based primarily
on growth. During the rapid growth period in McCall between 2003 and 2008, deficiencies became apparent in the water systems. Growth began taxing the existing water system, especially
on the west side. A major factor that affected what improvements were necessary in the water system was “Will Serve” letters that were issued for new proposed developments.
Since 2008 growth has slowed significantly and a number of planned developments were never built. These developments have for all practical purposes lost their entitlements. However,
the “Will Serve” letters did not have an expiration date associated with them. It is the intent of Public Works to terminate “Will Serve” letters associated with these developments.
With these cancellations, capital improvements identified in the 2008 Water Master Plan Addendum, can be either scaled back or eliminated.
Attached are a copy of the original 2008 Water Resolution and a Letter of Agreement with IDEQ written in 2010 that was never adopted and signed. Both of these documents are tied closely
to large number of “Will Serve” letters that were issued. Also included is a memo detailing the steps to be taken to cancel those “Will Serve” letters referenced in this Agenda Bill.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
For information and discussion purposes only with Staff direction.
