The Silver Springs City Council approved a motion to schedule a signing of a water-supply agreement with the Cedar View Water Users Association and authorized the mayor to sign the agreement once the association’s authorized representative has executed it.

Staff reported the association gave verbal concurrence to the agreement as presented and asked that the city schedule a time for the association’s representative to come to City Hall to sign. Council members discussed the contract’s connection point—staff clarified that the city’s maintenance responsibility ends at the connection at the city limits and that a meter will be located at that point.

Staff also explained that the contract establishes the rate schedule for the association’s service and that the contract rate is subject to change in line with the city’s rate adjustments; the association requested lead time for any rate increases, and staff and council agreed to provide 45 days’ notice unless otherwise specified. Councilors asked staff to prepare a resolution to govern any public-hearing process when rate changes exceed thresholds that trigger a hearing.

A minor typographical correction was noted: a date written as “02/2005” in the printed agreement should read “02/25.” Council authorized the mayor to sign after that correction and after the association’s representative signs the agreement.
