• <br />DATE • April 8, 1986 <br />TO Bill Hawkins, City Attorney <br />FROM Marilyn G. Anderson, Clerk -Treasurer <br />SUBJECT: Page 69, City Code Book <br />401.31 Deposit. Each user shall pay to the city a dep- <br />osit, before connecting to the municipal water system, <br />of a sum of $35.00, or a sum equal to 6 months of ant- <br />icipated water usage, whichever is larger. Such sum <br />shall be returned to such user upon his discontinuance <br />of municipal water service if the user's obligation for <br />water service has been met; if a balance remains owing, <br />such sum shall, after 30 days after such discontinuance, <br />be applied to such obligation. <br />Would you please review this section of the City Code. I believe <br />it is now illegal for the City to hold these deposits without pay- <br />ing interest. A number of municipal water users have questioned <br />the staff on this matter. We have said we would ask the City Att- <br />orney for his opinion. We now hold deposits for about eighty re- <br />sidents. <br />We now have all the utility statements on our computer. However, <br />the computer program is unable to handle these $35.00 deposits. <br />I would like to see this section of the City Code eliminated since <br />$35.00 rarely covers one quarter of service, let alone six months. <br />In addition I would like to return the deposits without interest <br />if possible when the current owner moves from the residence. Ev- <br />entually we will not have to account for any of these deposits. <br />Would you please address this issue at the April 28, 1986 Council <br />meeting. Please address the legality of these deposits, whether <br />they should earn interest and any problems involved in returning <br />the deposits. I should have your written response by April 22, 1986 <br />so that I can include it in the Council packets. <br />Thank you for your attention to this matter. <br />• <br />
