City Council: First Quarter Finances, SDG&E Asks for $4K

At its meeting Tuesday, the City Council will vote to deny a claim from San Diego Gas and Electric for $4,203.37.

The utility company claims that on Sept. 27, a city contractor, Rodriguez Brothers Engineering, Inc. damaged its primary electric line with a backhoe while excavating on Paseo El Arco.

Also, the council will review its first quarter finances for the fiscal year, which began in July.

There's also a request on the night's agenda from the Utilities Department to purchase new filters to remove iron and manganese from the supply at the groundwater treatment plant. The green sand filters will cost $250,000 and are necessary to get the plant pumping at its maximum capacity of 5.2 million gallons daily, according to the department's director West Curry.

Additionally, the council will vote to spend $124,595 on roof repairs at the San Juan Capistrano library.

The meeting begins at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 32400 Paseo Adelanto.
