104 March 5, 1973 The $275.00 per /permit is supposed to be the cost for- reserving sewer I$ne capacity for that home. The money is used to construct the inter- ceptor and to aid in the treatment of the sewage. Mr. Marier asked what would be the V i I l ages stand if Chomon i x exceeded the 50 home limit. Mr. Locher said the ViIlage would have to pay all cost for those homes. There was discussion on the possibi lity of limiting the construction, of passing the cost backto the contractor and the possibi lity of asking the limitation to be raised from 50 homes. Mr. Locher felt that this agreement was a token and what we do beyond this is the responsibility of the Village. He said the MSB figured in the reserve value of the truck and tanker in computing their contribtion to- ward the cost of hauling. Mr. Backlin brought up the fact that road restrictions will be posted soon thus limiting the amount that can be hauled at one time. Mr. Marier wondered if it would be wise to enter into this contract the way it is written. We have no assurance of when the interseptor wi II be constructed or if this agreement will be rewritten in 1974. He felt that we needed something more solid and in writing. Mr. Zelinka said he had the same questions. Although, he did feel that if the MSB entered into such a contract, and did not carry through, there could possibly be cause for a court case. Mr. Marier said he would like to see a definite date as to when the interceptor wi I I be constructed. Mr. J aworski said in order for MSB to make a commitment as to the date for construction, they have the approval of the Metro Council. Mr. Marier felt that if we charge the $275.00 per building permit, then remit these monies to the MSB, we will be paying charges for something we don't have, for services that we are not receiving. There was more discussion on these SAC charges, what they are used for, the fact that they are collected in the entire Metro Area and that we need a construction date in writing in order to protect the Village and the residents from paying for services not given. Mr. Cardinal suggested that Mr. Locher meet with the MSB again and take the requests of the Council back to them and renegotiate this agreement. He is to ask for a construction date, present our figures on the cost of hauling and some assurance that this contract will be rewritten in 1974. The Clerk asked for some direction from the Council in regards to issuing bui (ding permits. Mr. Zelinka moved to authorize the Clerk to hold al 1 construction permits, both bui Iding and sewer, unti I the next Council meeting. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Motion carried.
