perfect world. >> you mentioned new development, we are programs. so we are hoping the new developments are smarter and put in more water wise type of landscaping and capturing the water that maybe they can reuse. >> thank you. >> any other questions for mr. ritchie. i have a comment card, yolanda louis. no. 16. >> as another opportunity if what we see is writing on the wall, not only for the businesses but eventually if we don't get a grip on the droughts where it's going to hit is the consumers, the homeowners. let's have a reciprocal, let's recharge our water ground water 10 percent, what i see from the federal level they see things but they are not taking the action.

they are going to say let's get it from the people and do a rate increase. the people will hurt. i'm going to ask for the businesses, let's set some goals that we can do from the other side. conservation, the only way we can get around this, we can't make it rain so that means we have to conserve what we have which means i never hear recycling come up in any conversations whether it's at the city or state level and we need to look at that more seriously the technology i'm speaking of would decentralize like these new developments going up, not use the same drinking water that i use to flush the toilets let's set it up so in these developments like in i ohio if we have contamination, niece individual units are up and running. we build as smarter and don't continue to build the way we did in the past

and some of those issues that some of you brought up and i'm glad that you are paying to what's happening because we can look at examples such as japan where we see the worst of the worst. they are on an island. they have to look at solutions that work. what i'm seeing is band aids. in california they don't look outside. they go to the big guys who have been doing this for a hundred years and they look at the technology they had a hundred years fwoo, let's look at the places that are desperate and don't have other options. if you look at japan, how were they able to get away with this react or. there are things that they are doing but nobody is paying attention. look at the small guys and i can link you to some of these technologies. look at the examples in the world where they have the worst case scenario, we are not going to be able to make it with 100-year-old

technology. if we can look at technology to decentralize system, let's put some meat on the other side with those that are making the relations to putting 10 percent back. >>president vince courtney: thank you ms. lewis. any other comments on item 16 as amended, seeing none, i will close public comment. >> all in favor say, "aye". >> aye. >> any opposed? the ayes have it. the motion carries. >> jasmine? >> closed session item 19, 20, 21 off calendar, item 22 city and golf course and item 23 is off calendar. >> we'll hear one item in closed session, that's 22? >> correct. >> are there any comments to
