Mr. Coddington moved for approval of authorization and Ms. Kissler seconded the motion. City Attorney Hankins briefly gave some back- ground indicating that over a year ago the Edwards Underground Water District identified a significant portion of our E.T.J. as being in the Edwards Aquifer Re-Charge Zone, but the official maps of the Texas Department of Water Resources indicated that the area was not in the Re-Charge Zone, an error due to a number of factors and sources of information. He further stated that the Texas Department of Water Resources has not taken any action to correct the matter. Mr. Hankins stated that the rule making petition would force the Texas Department of Water Resources to adhere to the requirements. The Council then voted unanimously to approve authorization. Mayor Craddock introduced a report from Sitha Klipple on the work she is proposing for City Hall. Ms. Klipple approached the po- deum and introduced herself. She handed out a packet of information which had several layouts of how office space could be best utilized. She went through each layout for clarity. She said that she wasn't quite through, she was waiting for more information on the floor plan of the foyer/lobby area. Mayor Craddock asked Ms. Klipple how much this was going to cost, and Ms. Klipple responded $62,000.00 approximately. The price did not include the painting, carpet and other items. She stated that the quote could be trimmed or expanded depending on the needs of the City. Mayor Craddock introduced a report from Mary Lou Homer, Director of the San Marcos Area Food Bank requesting $4,000.00. Ms. Homer began her report by stating that the Food Bank gained State and Federal recognition late in 1984. She stated that the $4,000.00 requested would be used towards the general operating expenses and for salaries for the Director and for the part time route driver. Mr. Farr suggested that this item be added to the Special Meeting April 29, 1985 when the Budget Ordinance would be discussed. Mr. Farr moved to adjourn into Executive Session pursuant to Art- icle 6252-17 §§ 2 (e), (f), and (g), V.A.C.S., to seek the City Attorney's advise with respect to matters where the duties of the City Attorney to the City pursuant to the Coce of Professional Re- sponsibility of the State Bar of Texas clearly conflicts with Article 6252-17; the exchange of real property; duties of an employee; and complaints or charges against a public officer, respectively and Ms. Kissler seconded the motion which passed unanimously.
