MINUTE ORDER 05-56 <br /> <br />6. STUDY SESSION <br /> <br />A. Redwood City Water Supply Plan <br /> <br />Public Works Services Director Ingram stated he would be highlighting the <br />Urban Water Management Plan, stating that this was information requested by <br />the City Council. Input was received from the City Council Utilities Subcommittee <br />and staff was asked to bring the information to the Council. He utilized a <br />PowerPoint presentation.
