Mayor L'Allier stated that he would like to hold the mill rate at the 1971 level or to reduce it by 10 -15% if possible, and allow the increase in assessed valuation to compensate for the difference. He stated that he had talked with Mr. Jaworski on the Park Fund - -they plan to reduce the budget substantially this year. Mr. L'Allier stated that he had talked with Mr. Gotwald on the Metro Sewer Board's 1972 assessment which will be approximately $50,000. They felt that we can charge each Jandric hookup $500; therefore 100 homes would handle the assessment. There was discussion with members feeling that we should antici- pate a smaller number of hookups. It was decided that Mr. Gotwald should check with Don Waalen of Chomonix for an estimateon the number of hookups to expect. There was general discussion. Mr. L'Allier noted that between the years of 1965 and 1971 there was only an increase of 14.04 mills or an average of 2.4 mills per year increase for that period. Mr. Cardinal noted that purchase of a gas tank and pump would save a considerable amount of money. Mr. Bohjanen was asked to have Iry Zastrow move the boards under the Council table forward to increase leg room. There was discussion on the biennial amount received from the State for our Police Department's time at the Treatment Center. It was felt that a reason- able rate for 2 men in a squad car would be $9.50 per hour.
