INTRODUCTION Arizona Rinse Smart is a new water efficiency program for the restaurant and food service industry. This direct -install program will focus on the replacement of high water use, low- pressure pre -rinse spray valves with lower water use and higher pressure valves. Pre -rinse spray valves are primarily used by many food service establishments to remove food particles before plates and trays are placed within commercial dishwashers. Typically, the restaurant industry is a hard sector to reach with water efficient technologies. About two-thirds of the water used by restaurants is used for dishwashing. Water use can be reduced by installing water and energy efficient dishwashers and prc-rinse spray valves. Older, inefficient spray valves installed on rinsing equipment are typically rated at 2.5 gallons per minute or greater at 60 psi pressure. The new valves used in the Arizona Rinse Smart program are rated at 1.6 gallons per minute at 60 psi pressure. This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR), Chaparral City Water Company (CCWC) and Town of Fountain Hills (TOFH) establishes the framework for the cooperative pursuit of the objective stated below. This effort is titled the "Arizona Rinse Smart Program" and is hereafter referred to as the "Program." II. OBJECTIVE The objective of this Program and this MOU is to develop a cooperative effort to replace high water use pre -rinse spray valves in commercial kitchens within the portion of CCWC service territories located inside the TOFH boundaries, and to evaluate the resulting water savings. III. COOPERATION Through this MOU, the Program seeks to achieve the objective above by taking the following actions: A. TOFH will work with CCWC to identify appropriate business segments with commercial kitchens within the TOFH boundaries and will provide ADWR with installation information to include the name and address of each facility and the number of nozzles each establishment will require. B. ADWR will provide a number of water -efficient spray valves for installation in commercial kitchens that participate as part of this Program. The valves will be provided free of charge, in a timeframe reasonable to complete all scheduled installations. As appropriate, ADWR or its consultant will provide the installations. Any valves not installed will be retained by ADWR. C. ADWR will assume responsibility for scheduling and the cost for installation of all valves it distributes as part of this Program whether performed by ADWR or its consultant. D. ADWR, or its consultant, as part of the installation process, will provide customer training on how to use the water -efficient spray valve. E. With the consent of the ACC, CCWC will provide ADWR and the TOFH with water - savings data resulting from the replacement of high water use valves in this Program by using existing utility bills. ADWR requires one year of both pre and post install data to ensure an accurate estimate of total water -savings generated by this Program can be established. F. TOFH, in coordination with ADWR, will conduct promotional efforts and will prepare all marketing and other collateral materials it deems appropriate to promote the Program to its customers. IV. IMPLEMENTATION AND ADMINISTRATION ADWR will manage the Program and will provide administrative and technical support for this cooperative effort. Participants will be responsible for briefing their respective agency or organization. V. LIMITATIONS Nothing in this MOU shall be construed as limiting or affecting the legal authorities or management abilities of any of the participants. Any party to this MOU may withdraw from this agreement by providing written notice of termination to ADWR. VI. USE OF LOGOS & MATERIALS 2 Participants in this Program shall display the Arizona Rinse Smart logo on bill inserts and promotional materials related to the Program as depicted below: I I I A R I Z O N A OMMADM To use the logo, companies must submit a license agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. verifying their eligibility and agreeing to comply with the Logo Use Guidelines.

Director of Planning and Zoning Richard Turner addressed the Council relative to this agenda item and said that unfortunately Kate Zanon could not be present this evening. He advised that the Arizona Rinse Smart Program was sponsored by the Department of Water Resources, the Water Conservation Division and the Bureau of Reclamation. This was a water conservation effort for the restaurant industry and the goal was to replace existing spray nozzles at restaurants used for rinsing dishes with Rinse Smart nozzles. The new nozzles had been found to reduce water consumption by about 50% and the benefits of the nozzles were water and energy conservation as well as a financial savings because of the saved water. He explained that in order to join the program, the Council needed to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the State of Arizona Department of Water Resources and the Chaparral City Water Company and approve the proposed resolution. With approval of the program, Town staff would be responsible for providing a list of restaurants to participate in the program, updating the Council and the community on the program and assisting the Department of Water Resources with marketing. Mr. Turner advised that the Department of Water Resources would supply the nozzles and administer the program, including marketing the program. The Chaparral City Water Company would provide the Town and the Department of Water Resources with information on the amount of water used. He added that staff recommended approval of Resolution 2007-47, which includes the Memorandum of Understanding. Vice Mayor Dickey MOVED to approve Resolution 2007-47 and Councilmember Archambault SECONDED the motion. Vice Mayor Dickey stated that this began with an e-mail in March when she read an article about the City of Sedona and sent an e-mail to the Chaparral City Water Company and to the Chamber of Commerce. They all met in July and the Council indicated their intent to pursue this at a meeting held in August. She said she was very pleased that this was coming to fruition and looked forward to receiving a copy of the list of participants in this "win -win" program. She added that perhaps they could also talk to the School District about this as well as service organizations throughout the Town — anyone who had an industrial type of kitchen so that they too could be made aware of this issue. She thanked everyone for their hard work in this area. There were no citizens wishing to speak on this item. The motion CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY (7-0). Town Manager Tim Pickering advised that Senior Planner Bob Rodgers would present an overview of Agenda Items #15, #16, #17, #18 and #19 at one time. Town Attorney Andrew McGuire explained that the Town had not done a lot of the major amendments and there was a requirement in place that every ordinance be published. The publishing requirement, when the Town adopted large Code amendments, became extremely expensive for the Town Clerk's office (can take up half of the budget). Thankfully, the statute allowed for adoption by a reference. If you first declare that whatever the object is to be a public record, then it could be adopted by reference and not be published. The Town did this a lot with its Building Codes and any other large amendments that were going to be 10, 20 or even hundreds of pages long. He said that the Council would review two separate resolutions; one declaring the Adult Business Zoning Regulations as a public record and the Adult Business Business Regulations as public record and then there would be ordinances that adopted each one of those by reference. There were a series of different resolutions and ordinances. He said that they could do one "global presentation" and then hold the public hearing following that.
