  Brian Balbas presented a report and recommendation on the funding shortfall in County Service Area M-28.  Mr. Balbas recommended that the Finance Committee approve the use of $770,000 in general funds to retrofit the existing water treatment facilities that service the Willow Mobile Home Park located on Bethel Island.  Both Supervisor Glover and Supervisor Piepho questioned staff regarding alternatives.  Staff assured the Committee that all available alternatives had been attempted and that the expense was required as the State requires the County to provide water that meets its Primary standards.  The Committee approved the recommendation. The item will be forwarded to the full-board with an appropriation adjustment in December.
