Description

For $1,025,000.00 in payment authority for Fiscal Year 2019-20 water rights settlement claim costs for Contract 54170, for the Water Services Department (WSD). In 1998, the City of Phoenix entered into a comprehensive settlement agreement with Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC), and others, to settle SRPMIC water rights claims. Part of that settlement included an ongoing three-way water exchange among the City of Phoenix, Salt River Project and the Roosevelt Irrigation District. WSD is responsible to pay a portion of costs associated with the ongoing annual exchange.
