that wou °be satisfactory to all involved ,- -
CoLinciirnan King'feit that the points `brought o.'ut in1Vlr. Larson ° s report
were ,sti'11 not the solution to the problem - inasmuch as' the - Sweeneys would still
not have a , firm commitment water. He was of the opinion that the City should
have economic and financial feasibility studies maden` order to decide whether
or not the C tywants to �th °e area in or - if it could. to _serve
the area... He "again that it was - not a matter -`of lock - of *4ter, 'but rather
~ a p roblem of financing development in the area without a firm corriinitment

Councilman Matzen stated that this matter had` been gone over very
thoroughly by the - Water` Comm ission and: they 'could. see - no harm in turning it
over to the staff to `explore all of the possibilities involved:..

There being no objections to this line of procedure the City Manager
was directed o see that this 'was done and report back to the Council as soon
as possible: -
