RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
Clerk of the Council to execute a two-year agreement with the Municipal
Water District of Orange County to provide water-related educational
services to Santa Ana schools in an amount not to exceed $20,000 per
year.
DISCUSSION
The City has been offering a water education program to Santa Ana schools
since 1996. This program has been developed and made available to grades
kindergarten through high school through a contract with the Municipal
Water District of Orange County.
The program consists of visits to the schools to give presentations,
complete with visual aids and handouts. The program has been recognized
for excellence, well received by the schools in Santa Ana, and is a
recognized component on the list of best management practices for
insuring acceptable levels of water conservation.
In order to continue to provide this excellent program to all schools,
staff recommends that $20,000 per year be approved for a two year
period for funding of this program.
