Date: 05/03/99
Re: Evaluation of Strategic Planning Process for 1998—1999
Attached to this memo is an evaluation form for the strategic planning process that lead to the
development of goals and objectives that formed the basis of the recommended 1999—2000 Budget.
As you recall, there were several steps in the strategic planning process the Council and staff
undertook this year, including:
1. Conducting a citizen survey/soliciting input from Boards and Commissions and the public
2. Development of a community values statement
3. Development short and longer term goals
4. Implementation
5. Developing a reporting process
6. Refinement and updating
The staff are currently working on developing a reporting process for the Council to keep you up-to-
date on the implementation of the strategic plan. A remaining task for this year is to solicit input from
the Council and staff on the process that was used during the strategic planning program. In my
estimation, there were portions of the process that went well and others that did not, your feedback will
be used to improve the process in the future in an attempt to make strategic planning a useful and
valuable tool for the Council and staff.
Please complete the attached survey and return it to Mike before you leave the study session today.
This information will be summarized and brought back to Council for further discussion at an upcoming
Study Session.

DATE: May 5, 1999
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Paula C. Brown, Public Works Director/City Engineer /J flies
RE: WWTP- LOOSE ENDS
I. Facilities Plan Figures
Attached are copies of three pages from the 1995 Facilities Plan. To adequately compare
apples-to-apples costs, the comparison took into effect the capital costs only, and did not
include the estimates for design as these were figured separately by Carollo. You will notice
that the capital cost of advanced treatment year around discharge to the creek is $29.9
million. This was the only way to fully compare the options as we are proposing today.
However, when the costs are compared to the `Total Present Worth"costs, that option was
shown as $52.3 million as compared to the summer irrigation option of$36.9 million.
Il Irrigation Rates, Application Volumes,Application Restrictions
The spray irrigation heads are rated at 294 gallons per minute. The treatment plant produces
1.87 million gallons per day that must be used through the irrigation heads. Staff has
estimated each sprinkler head to be on for 5 minutes at any one time and that 5 sprinklers
would be operating at the same time. There are a total of 135 heads on the property.
294 gallons/minute/head x 5 minutes x 135 heads = 198,450 gallons
used every 5 minutes assuming all heads were on
If the sprinklers are rotated so that all 135 sprinklers have 5 minutes at a time, 10 times a
day,we would use 1,984,500 gallons of water. This means that each of the sprinkler heads
would be on for less than an hour(50 minutes) total (in 5 minute increments) each day.
If only 5 of the total 135 sprinkler heads are on at any one time, there are 17 rotations. 17
rotations at 5 minutes per rotation means that the total sprinkler time would be 85 minutes
to complete one full cycle. Ten cycles would be 850 minutes of total sprinkler time. There
are 1440 minutes in a day - thereby leaving 590 minutes (or nearly 10 hours) each day for
1
wind or other constraints. Please know that the 5 minutes per sprinkler is a worst case
scenario. There may be times in which the sprinklers could be on for a longer period. We
are constrained by the fact that we cannot have run-off,and that the plant/crop type must use
the water sprinkled. There are sensors in the ground to ensure that there is no run-off and
that there is no deep penetration of the water.
We will not spray when the wind velocities would take the water off of the site. The weather
station on the site will monitor the wind velocity and wind direction to ensure that we will
not over-spray. Buffers around the irrigation area(100-1000 feet-minimal requirement by
DEQ is 70 feet for level II reclaimed water) are there to protect for over-spray as well.
III. Water Rights on Ashland Creek
Attached are two documents pertaining to the City's water right on Ashland Creek.
IV Cost Clarifications
I'm not sure where the Sneak Preview got the latest costs estimates, but to reiterate, the
following explains the costs to date:

Present Worth Summary
From the present worth values in Table 9-6, Wastewater Treatment in Medford is the least
expensive choice at $30,623,000. For Summer Irrigation of City Property, the present worth
cost is $36,891,000, approximately 20 percent higher. Advanced Wastewater Treatment is
' the most expensive alternative at $52,275,000.
Key Cost Features
Wastewater Treatment in Medford consists primarily of a long interceptor sewer from
Ashland to the existing BCVSA sewage collection system; no WWTP improvements are
needed. This alternative takes advantage of the existing infrastructure of the Medford RWRF
and avoids the costs associated with the operation and maintenance of the Ashland plant.
Summer Irrigation of City Property consists of upgrading the existing WWTP and purchasing
land and irrigation equipment. This alternative takes advantage of the less stringent
wintertime requirements for discharge to Bear Creek—nutrient removal processes are not
included. Tertiary filtration would be used to reduce effluent solids and BOD to the required
levels.
The high cost of Advanced Wastewater Treatment is not surprising because it represents the
/ most complex treatment system. A brief inspection of the site layout (Figure 9-5) shows the
/ relative complexity of this alternative.

/ As discussed in Chapter 7, the estimates in this report are order-of-magnitude estimates: in

OP ASH�9
CITY OF ASHLAND
Department of Public Works
Engineering Division MEMORANDUM OREGON:
DATE: April 26, 1999
TO: Paula Brown
FROM: Jim H. Olson
SUBJECT: Water Rights Questions
Following is a brief response to your questions regarding water rights posed in your memo of
April 22, 1999:
1. OWNERSHIP OF EFFLUENT WATER
A holder of a water right to the natural flow of a stream has no right to water stored by
another,water right holder. The water right of the down stream user applies only to
natural flow and not to flow emanating from impounded water or other generated
waters. Mr Roth has no clam to treatment plant effluent.
2. TRIBUTARY RIGHTS
Eagle Mill Farm's water right is from Bear Creek and even though Ashland Creek is a
tributary of Bear Creek, no claim can be made against any waters within Ashland
Creek. Neither the City or any other water right's holder is required to satisfy
downstream rights which are not actually permitted off that stream. If the Ashland
Creek water is fully allocated, it can be completely used to the point where there is no
flow entering Bear Creek even though there are water rights off Bear Creek just below
the confluence of the two creeks. There is no requirement for a supplement of
Ashland Creek water into Bear Creek.
The letter from the Water Master, dated July 5, 1973, has no bearing upon Eagle Mill
Farm. It pertains only to rights actually permitted off Ashland Creek.
3. WATER RIGHTS PRECEDENCE
Water rights are allocated based upon the date of certificate. The only time that a
preference would be established is when there are two or more rights of the same date.
In that case, domestic and stock watering rights would take precedence over irrigation
rights.

SUhjL>rt- Revised Total for Water Rights on John Billings' Property
I met with John Billings Monday regarding the water rights pertinent to his property
along North Main and Jackson Road. As I mentioned in our conversation on Thursday,
there are several water rights listed in the Rogue River Decree that the Water Master did not
include in his search. In checking with John, he assured me that none of the original farm
property had been sold in the last 80+ years and he had never received any proof from the
Water Resources Department for any areas or amounts less than the original water
allocations. In view of these findings, I feel that full and complete water allocation as shown
in the original 1919 adjudicated decree should prevail. It would be the responsibility of the
Water Resources Department to disprove any of these claims for water rights.
The only way in which water rights can be lost is through non-use (of more than five
(5] consecutive years), or by sale of the property or the right itself. According to Billings,
neither of these conditions has occurred.
Following is a list of permanent non-interruptible water rights.
Certificate No. 15911
Proof 65, Volume 2 has a priority date of 1874 and is a right for 0.22 second
feet of water off Wrights Creek, by the Mark-Brown ditch, to irrigate 17
acres. Of the original 17 acres, only 5 lie within tax lot 200 reducing the rate
to 0.065 second feet.
Proof 66, Volume 2 has a priority date of 1873 and is a right for 0.38 second
feet of water for irrigation for 30 acres off the Meyers-Billings ditch from
Wrights Creek. Of this right, only 14 acres is applied to tax lot 200 which
reduces the rate to 0.18 second feet.
Certificate No. 15912
Proof 67, Volume 2 has a priority date of 1869 and a rate of 0.24 second feet
for irrigation of 19 acres through the W.C. Meyer Ditch off Wrights Creek.
All of this right is applied to lot 200.
17 August 1993
0 Page 2
Certificate No. 15914
Proof 68.5, Volume 2, with a priority date of 1885 is a right for 0.10 second
feet of water for irrigation of 6 acres from Dann Spring. This right is not
directly attached to the Billings' property; however, there is a right to use any
unused portion of this water that flows into Wrights Creek. Although there
may be some benefit, it is not possible to quantify this right.
Certificate No. 16001
Proof 154, Volume 4 has a priority date of 1858 and is a right for 0.30 second
feet of water off the Helman Irrigation Ditch (off Ashland Creek). This right
is for irrigation of 24 acres of land.
Proof 155, Volume 4 has a priority date of 1864 and originally provided 0.50
second feet of water for the irrigation of 40 acres from the Smith-Meyer-Roper
Ditch (off Ashland Creek). Of the original 40 acres, only 19 acres remain
within the Billings' ownership and with current rights. The 19 acres under
present use has a rate of 0.24 second feet.
SUMMARY
Proof No. Acres Irrigated Priority Rate
65, 2 5 Acres 1874 0.065 C.F.S.
66, 2 14 Acres 1873 0.180 C.F.S.
S-
67, 2 19 Acres 1869 0.240 C.F.S.
154, 4 24 Acres 1858 0.300 C.F.S.
155, 4 40 Acres 1864 0.500 C.F.S.
TOTAL 102 Acres 1.285 C.F.S.
1.285 C.F.S. X 448.8 = 576.71 gallons per minute
576.71 G.P.M. X 60 = 34,602.5 gallons per hour
34,602.5 G.P.H. X 24 = 830,459.5 gallons per day
In addition to the above listed rights, 13.5 acres of land are irrigated through the
Talent Irrigation District. This right is a seasonal right and not year round. There may also
be some benefit from Dann Spring; however, it is impossible to determine how much benefit
might be derived from it.. According to Billings, there are other springs located on the
., Revised local Yor wamr nigu� v.. ••••••• .... a •-v—• y

property which also add to the water supply. I can find no record of a right to these springs;
however, if the springs are located entirely on the Billings' property and the flow used on the
property as well, then he does have a valid right to those springs as well. Again no flow
rate,is known.
In further research of the seasonal right off Wild Cat Gulch (certificate no. 18915), it
was found that this right did not apply to tax lot 200 and should not be considered in any
event, since it is marginal at best.

Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Mike Freeman,City Administrator "
CC: Department Heads
Date: 05/03/99
Re: Evaluation of Strategic Planning Process for 1998—1999
Attached to this memo is an evaluation form for the strategic planning process that lead to the
development of goals and objectives that formed the basis of the recommended 1999—2000 Budget.
As you recall, there were several steps in the strategic planning process the Council and staff
undertook this year, including:
1. Conducting a citizen survey/soliciting input from Boards and Commissions and the public
2. Development of a community values statement
3. Development short and longer term goals
4. Implementation
5. Developing a reporting process
6. Refinement and updating
The staff are currently working on developing a reporting process for the Council to keep you up-to-
date on the implementation of the strategic plan. A remaining task for this year is to solicit input from
the Council and staff on the process that was used during the strategic planning program. In my
estimation, there were portions of the process that went well and others that did not, your feedback will
be used to improve the process in the future in an attempt to make strategic planning a useful and
valuable tool for the Council and staff.
Please complete the attached survey and return it to Mike before you leave the study session today.
This information will be summarized and brought back to Council for further discussion at an upcoming
Study Session.
