DATE: March 30, 1995 (CC Meeting of April 5, 1995)
SUBJECT: Consider Request to Ventura County Board of
Supervisors to Initiate Action Transferring
Waterworks District No. t to the City of Moorpark
BACKGROUND:
The 1994/95 Objectives incivae an item for the proposed
transfer of Waterworks Distr ,,�:t No 1 to the City of
Moorpark. This was jointly stud..ed by the City and District
over an approximate two year period from 1986 to 1988. The
"Final Report" was issued in Marsh 988. A copy of the
report was previously provided c fhe 7ity Council.
DISCUSSION:
The Board of Supervisors considered the 1988 Feasibility
Study in mid -1988 and declined to pursue further action
towards the eventual transfer. -he Final Report had four (4)
essential prerequisites prier transfer:
1. Concurrence of d itiojoi ;_ty of water customers
located outside ti -e t y .
2. Upgrading of City's f ,area. planning and control
systems.
3. Further development. >f C it_ y' s overhead support

It was anticipated to take about 30 months for the City to
become organizationally capable )f taking over operations of
the District. Prior to Board consideration, the City Council
informed the Board that it disagreed with the recommendation
calling for an advisory vote of the water customers outside
of the City. Further, in the event such an advisory vote was
held, it should include all w,,+e�- customers not just those
outside the City.
Since 1988, the potential transfer has been periodically
discussed between the City and -aunty, but no further action
has been initiated. As a pr!()rity �-�bjective of the City
Council, I recommend that the Mayor meet with Supervisor
Mikels to determine interes, ano support ro consider
initiating the proposed tra,sf
STAFF RECO[MNDATION:
