Mayor Corbett: That's right -it's on the agenda for giving direction. And I am just interrupting because Councilman Galvan looks like he has something that he wants to interject. Council Member Galvan: Well, I think it will answer your question Bob. There's three parts to this process. One is adopting the principles of the agreement between EBDA and LAVWMA. And, the agreement establishes capacity rights for LAVWMA and the financial terms of the agreement between the two agencies -the money part of it -what EBDA is going to receive. And, as a reference point, because a lot of commitments have been made over the years, the agreement also includes language about other commitments and other agreements that may be a part of the document, but are not in the document -such as Hayward's $IOM, such as San Leandro's landscaping plans - those are not intended to be spelled out in detail in this agreement. This agreement is, again, for the financial terms and capacity rights between the two agencies. After that you have an EIR process for the new pipeline project that LAVWMA is proposing. There will be a comment period on the EIR which San Leandro can then say "this is what we want specifically. " And then after the EIR process, again we have another opportunity when they have to pull their permit to start construction on the project. Which again, is another opportunity for us to, again, be very specific as to what we want. So, tonight we don't have to establish all the details, as to exactly what we want to see on Lewelling. There will be plenty of time to do that in the future. What we need to do is take a look at the proposed agreement and see if the financial arrangements and capacity rights in this agreement are acceptable to the City of San Leandro.
