Utilities Committee <br /> July 28, 2003 <br /> Page 2 <br /> noted that check valves or gate valves can address the problems since the system is not designed to <br /> handle rain when it reaches 3.5"to 5"in a 24-hour period. He further noted that if the City had not <br /> done as much preventive maintenance over the years that the situation would have been worse. <br /> Council Member Kirsits inquired if the older neighborhoods have the capability of having check <br /> valves or gates valves installed and asked Mr. Gilot and/or Mr. Dillon for an update. <br /> Jack Dillon noted that 1"of rain results in 1 billion gallons of water city-wide. <br /> There being no further business to come before the Committee, Council Member Kirsits adjourned <br /> the meeting at 4:42 p.m. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Council Member Al`Buddy"Kirsits, Chairperson <br /> Utilities Committee <br /> KCF:kmf <br /> Attachments <br />
