County steps back from backing city's water claim Page 2 of 2 <br /> "The (county) letter means the city continues to fight this battle alone," Occhiato said. "It baffles me that <br /> the county doesn't recognize that we are trying to protect the economic development of the Downtown <br /> and the county will benefit from that too." <br /> Occhiato said he expects council to press ahead with its claim in water court for the requested minimum <br /> flows. The city has agreed to revise that water claim to reflect any mutual agreement with the <br /> Southeastern district and the other partners. <br /> Council has authorized the spending of up to $450,000 for legal fees for the water case. <br /> 01996 -2002 The pueblo Chieflain Online <br /> • <br /> http:// www .chieftain.com/printlwednesday /news /articles /ni I .htm 7/7/2002 <br /> L '+i 821130926TL IaiSTW '3 PI °-aeH eL117:6O 20 GO InC <br />
