COUNCIL MINUTES <br />DRAFT <br />2 <br />to seek a utility rate study and the staff recommendation currently to enter into a contract with Baker 41 <br />Tilly for such a study. 42 <br />Mayor Rafferty remarked that there has been discussion previously at the work session on the details 43 <br />of going forward with a rate study. 44 <br />Councilmember Stoesz asked about other proposals received and Ms. Lynch indicated the only lower 45 <br />bid was received from an organization less qualified to conduct the study. Councilmember Stoesz 46 <br />also asked that staff investigate the cost of adding a flat rate element to the study, to be reported to the 47 <br />council. 48 <br />Councilmember Lyden asked staff to report on the last time utility rates were changed and Ms. Lynch 49 <br />indicated the last increase occurred in 2015, based on the results of a rate study in 2012. 50 <br />Councilmember Stoesz moved to approve Resolution No. 21-12 as presented with the understanding 51 <br />that the option of a flat rate will be costed and reported to the council.
