Board, stated he is opposed to the lending of S.M.E.U. funds to the General Fund for the purpose of the football fields. Mr. Gonzalez stated the Electric and Water Funds of the City have a stake in sup- porting the economy and economic development. The City could look elsewhere for funding but the Exhibits attached to the Ordinance were the sources of funding which would cause the least impact. Mr. Brown stated he wants the City to take all the funding from the Wastewater Fund, and that he wishes the Council to respect the decision made by the S.M.E.U. Board. Mr. Gonzalez stated the City will soon be issuing water bonds wherein much funding will be from this fund. Mr. Brown moved to amend the Ordinance for all funds to be taken from the Water Fund. The motion died for a lack of a second. Mr. Gonzalez stated it is expected these funding sources will be paid back within two years, and that the contract time is for 2 years and hopefully for 10 years. Mr. Hernandez moved to amend the Ordinance to be adopted on emergency and Mr. Moore seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. The Council then unanimously adopted the Ordinance on emergency, as amended.
