Mrs. Mildred Falk appeared to discuss 10/5/77 SEWAGE DISPOSAL AND TREATMENT 85 (continued) Date litigation and related matters re: Virginia Key Transmission Line. Atty. Joseph Z. Fleming, representing RITE (Research Improves the En- vironment, Inc.) appeared in connection with their suit to permit the proposed pilot project to extend the City's present ocean outfall line, and advised City had been named as one of the defendants in order to enable the matter to be brought to court. He requested that City retain Atty. Linton Lovett to examine pending proceed- ings and to advise City regarding its duty to proceed with Va. Key project, and whether it would be feasible to apply to court for protection from any sanctions against City from other 10/5/77 SEWAGE DISPOSAL AND TREATMENT 86 (continued) Date governmental agencies. City Atty. advised that City had acted in compliance with law in pro- ceeding with contracts and construction; that remedy would be to change the laws, but would not be found in courts. He said City has no alternative but to continue what it is doing, particularly in view of fact that substantial contracts had been let and project is already well under way; but if Council desired to ob- tain Mr. Lovett's views, it would be empowered to do so. Assistant County Atty. Clifford Schulman appeared and concurred in the advice of City Atty. with exception of City Atty's re- ference to Mr. Lovett's possible employment. The matter was deferred to Oct. 19, 1977 at 10/5/77
