<br />,"&- <br />;l <br /> <br />TUESDAY <br /> <br />AUGUST 25, 1981 <br /> <br />Group. In response to a question posed by Vice Mayor Cole, noting the reported <br /> <br />level of the City's Beaver Creek Reservoir (now approaching "Condition 2" phase of the <br /> <br />City's proposed Water Resources Conservation Plan), as to when mandatory water <br /> <br />conservation measures should be adopted, council indicated that its decision on this <br /> <br />matter rests upon certain matters and developments yet to be considered as well as <br /> <br />upon certain legal questions yet to be resolved, some of which might be considered in <br /> <br />a proposed Executive Session, with Vice Mayor Cole insisting that, subsequently, the <br /> <br />entire situation be discussed in open session.
