City Engineer Westby stated that Ramsey was identified within the top 20 water users of the metro <br /> area and therefore were included as a possible partner in this study. He stated that the study would <br /> look at the economic potential to apply water conservation measures that will help the City to <br /> benefit economically. He stated that the City Council provided approval to participate in the study <br /> and he has received a draft report. He noted that there were some inaccuracies in the report that <br /> will be updated. He stated that the Metropolitan Council are meeting with 15 of the 20 <br /> communities that agreed to participate, and the models will be adjusted based on the information <br /> received by each of the cities. He stated that the preliminary results will only be improved by the <br /> more accurate data. He stated that if the City is able to reduce their residential irrigation use <br /> effectively, using education and marketing or incentive programs, perhaps the two wells planned <br /> within the next ten years would not be needed. He believed that the updated report would be <br /> available in February of 2019. <br /> City Planner Anderson stated that the December meeting is scheduled for December 17th and <br /> confirmed the consensus of the Board to reschedule that date to December 10th <br /> 7.
