If they did lease they would want it for 20-25 years as they would be building a permanent facility. Discussion followed, with the Board's consensus being that we did not have enough unused land that we would tie up in a long term least Director Kelly suggested we might consider a short term lease (4-5 years) for a nominal fee plus improvements, assuming Coast Waste could get some land abutting it. Several Directors suggested that Mr. de Jong contact the County or the Beckman Corporation. After further discussion Mr. de Jong expressed interest in Director Kelly's suggestion and said that after contacting both the County and Beckman's he would return to the District to determine what steps might be taken.

What the Engineer is presenting today is a revision of plans; an increase in the pipeline sizes to accommodate the oversizing. There are three agreements for each development; (1 ) the regular agreements to bui Id a1 1 the pub1 ic fac- ilities in the tracts, (2) reimbursement agreements because they are oversizing the 1 ines in their area , and (3) agreements to put up a share of the first cost of the 10" lines that would have been built.
