The reason there is no fully executed agreement in the file is because the applicant, after Council approval, decided to obtain construction water from the Irvine Ranch Water District instead of from the City of Newport Beach. The Agreement was never fully executed or acted on by The Irvine Company. You should close this file and attach this memo for the official records.

Authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute an Agreement for the sale of water on behalf of the City. DISCUSSION: A contract for rough grading, earthmoving and road construction northerly of Cameo Highlands, outside the City limits, has been awarded by The Irvine Company (TIC). TIC has asked to temporarily purchase water from the City for rough grading, dust control and soil compaction work. The contractor performing work for TIC has no other source of water for this area at the present time. After rough grading is completed, the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) will construct reclaimed water pipelines and provide reclaimed water to this area. IRWD has agreed to allow the City to provide water to this area. TIC proposes to purchase water from the City of Newport Beach under an Agreement with the understanding that water from the City's connection will be used temporarily until IRWD's reclaimed water system can be built and activated. TIC has consented to the proposed terms for the City to temporarily provide water service. Staff has reviewed the proposed water consumption demand and believes that the proposed operation will in no way adversely affect the City's water system or supply. As such, staff recommends approval of the Agreement. A summary of the principal terms of the Agreement follows: 1. City agrees to sell water through a new metered connection, near the intersection of Surrey Drive and Rockford Road. 2. TIC will purchase water through the connection at a rate of $3.00 per hundred cubic feet of water. <3Y) • ke 2 Agreement for Sale of Water Outside the City October 26, 1992 3.
