not used in these calculations. A possible amendment to the

conservation and possible ways to educate the public on this
matter. - Mayor Salamone requested that this item be placed on a
regular workshop meeting agenda sometime in the future.
Mr. Arabian explained his theory of potable water reuse and
suggested a feasibility study be conducted. Discussion followed.
It was the consensus of Council that although this is something
the City may want to pursue in the future, it should be a sepa-
rate issue from the Stormwater Management, which needs to be
addressed at this time.
