MINUTES <br />Ci~y Council <br />January 7, 1981 <br />Penalty On The City Clerk reported that Mr. Flusnick received a penalty in the <br />Husnick amount of $548.49 on his Utility Statement. The invoice was not <br />Water Bill paid within the 30 day bil7ing period, and this was the reason for <br />the penalty charge. <br />The Clerk also informed the Counci1 that Mr. Husnick claims that he <br />did not receive the Utility Statement and when he received the second <br />statement with the penalty charge, he promptly paid the bill at that <br />time. Mr. Husnick has requested that the penalty charge be waived <br />as he did not receive the first bill. The Clerk also reported that <br />this is the first time Mr. Husnick has been late in paying his water <br />bill. <br />Mr. Husnick reported to the Council that he had a change of address a <br />little over a year ago. He sent notices of the change to all of his <br />creditors, but apparently the City either never recefved a notice or <br />the change was not recorded. The Post Office will only forward mail <br />for one year, and that is probably the reason that Mr. Husnick clid not <br />receive his water bill. <br />Mr. Husnick asked that in the future perhaps the City staff could remind <br />him of a water bill that has not been paid before the pena7ty is charged. <br />Mr. Fahey commented that in the past the Council has reduced the size of <br />a penalty for someone who was late in paying their bill, however, that <br />was under different circumstances than this situation. <br />Councilman Fahey also stated that the City cannot set a policy of calling <br />everyone and reminding them to pay their utility bill when their payment <br />is late. <br />Councilman Forsberg stated that he feels the penalty shou7d be waived in <br />this case due to Mr. Husnick past record of payment. <br />Mr. Forsberg introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION P10.
