C
Yes,
Marty
Medina
Garden,
Avenue,
City
Council
candidate
good
evening,
honorable
mayor
council
staff,
guess
I'm
here
tonight
to
correct
some
information
from
the
League
of
Women
Voters
candidate
forum
last
Wednesday
night.
The
issue
was
the
safety
of
PVC
pipe
in
drinking
water
systems.
I
am
hoping
by
now
you
know.
I
am
a
city
assem,
brutal
council,
candidate
and
I
am
focused
in
lowering
Sam
Bruno's
water
and
sewer
rates.
I
have
suggested
that
PVC
pipe
c900
class
can
be
used
as
an
alternative
to
ductile
iron
pipe.
C
During
the
meeting
one
of
the
council
members
said,
PVC
pipe
was
unsafe
and
I
am
here
to
correct
that
I
will
provide
this
information
to
our
clerk
and
she
can
share
it
with
you
or
I
can
also
send
everybody
an
email.
This
is
from
the
PVC
pipe
Association
I'm,
going
to
read
a
few
things
from
it.
Pvc
pipe
meets
or
exceeds
all
required:
health
and
safety
standards
and
regulations
governed
by
the
US
and
Canadian
safe
water
drinking
acts.
C
It
is
approved
around
the
world
in
water,
distribution
and
transmission
lines
over
40,000
North,
American,
Water,
Utilities
use
PVC
pipe
today,
and
more
than
1
million
miles
are
in
service
or
about
seventy.
Eight
percent
of
all
new
drinking
water
distribution
pipes
installed
on
the
continent,
so
PVC
pipe
can
be
used
as
a
transmission
pipe
in
our
water
system
and
it's
safe.
So
that
is
correcting
what
was
said
the
other
night.
C
The
second
thing
I
want
to
talk
about
tonight
is
I,
wanted
to
thank
the
council
for
providing
the
information
regarding
the
653
thousand
dollars
in
uncollected
fees
in
our
water
and
sewer
rates
at
the
last
council
meeting.
This
is
another
way
if
we
were
to
collect
these
monies
that
are
owed
to
us
that
we
could
lower
our
water
and
sewer
rates.
If
we're
collecting
what
is
owed
to
us,
we
don't
have
to
raise
the
water
rates
for
everybody
else.
C
The
money
that
comes
in
should
go
into
the
system
and
we
and
we
could
protect
our
ratepayers
one
alternative
to
this
would
require
a
larger
deposit
for
somebody
that
opens
a
water
or
sewer
account
in
the
city.
Another
alternative
could
require
the
property
owner
to
pay
for
the
account,
in
the
event
that
a
previous
tenant
left
the
city
without
pain
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you.
Anyone
else.
