Councilman Calvert noted for the record that he is Secretary - Manager of the Azusa Valley Water Co., and that there is an agreement between his Water Co. and the City of Azusa re: service to this area.

Mr. Richard Pearson, representative from Avery Label Co., presented and explained a diagram showing the possible sources of water and the alternatives.

Foot- hill Blvd. AZUSA AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1969 Page 6 It was noted that the plant production does not use a great volume of water due to the fact that most of the water is retained and re -circulated. The actual needs are: 1. Fire Protection (sprinkler system). 2. Normal Domestic type of use, i. e., lavatories, drinking fountains, etc. 'It was explained that the fire underwriters demanded a level of water pressure which was not available from ex- isting 8" main extended along Foothill Blvd., due to the fact that this main would be sufficient for the domestic use, but would not meet fire protection requirements. Avery Label would want to tap into the Azusa Valley Water Company's 25" main for fire protection purposes only. It was noted that the agreement between the City and Azusa Valley Water Co. did not allow, without permission of both parties, the Azusa Valley Water Co. to serve customers in this area west of Palm Dr. The Avery representative requested that an 8" main be con- structed from Pasadena Ave. to the proposed plant site, running north of the Azusa Square Shopping Center, and ex- pressed a willingness of Avery Label to pay 50% of the cost for this new water main. It was felt that this main could serve the shopping center as well as the Avery Label, and could be extended in a "U a^rangement" to tie into the =xisting main which follows Foothill Blvd. The Avery Label Co. would pay for the total amount of the pipe laid north and south on its property to accomplish this loop. It was further noted that this loop and future City water developments would increase the pres- sul•e in this line to be sufficient to meet the fire pro- tection required of the plant as well as increase the fire protection possibilities for the shopping center. After considerable discussion, it was: Moved by Councilman Cooney, seconded by Councilman Solem that the City agree to the interim use by Avery Label Co. of the Azusa Valley Water Company's 25" main, for fire protection°purposes only; that the 8" line presently ex- tending easterly from Pasadena Ave. along Foothill Blvd., be extended to the Avery Label site, for the other water needs, and at such time as the City procures the neces- sary easements it will pay 50% of the cost of extending a 12" main from Pasadena along the north side of Azusa Square Shopping Center to the property of Avery Label, and Avery Labei will pay full cost of a 12" main along their north -south line connecting the new main with the above mentioned extended 8" main.
