Mayor Hashmi asked about the cost of the plant of 7.2 mag. Mr. Sober said it would cost anywhere in the range from 30 to 72 million dollars. Council Member Pickle asked about the rehabilitation costs. Mr. Sober said it was nearly impossible to give them a dollar amount for rehabilitation cost because it would be facility specific and the conceptual design phase was created to identify exactly what that would cost. Council Member Plata asked Mr. Sober if he was guessing would the rehabilitation cost about 20 million dollars. Mr. Sober said he had a lot of options for them to consider after the conceptual design was completed. Mayor Hashmi wanted to know if there was going to be a plan for use of affluent water. Mr. Sober said there were several ways you could reuse affluent water, whether it was irrigating golf courses and parks or direct augmentation of the drinking water supply.
