The Technical memo is part of the Consent Agenda for tonight, an element of the night which offers Council members the opportunity to receive the report without any comment if they wish.
Though some may want to take advantage of the opportunity to follow up.

More notes related to this evening's Council Session can be reviewed through our Council Preview page.
A look at past items of interest on the Water Treatment planning can be reviewed here.
