LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 10-16-84 PAGE 4 <br />7. City Administrator's Report <br />A. Water Meter Reading Card Policy <br />The Council discussed the proposed Policy of Water Meter Readings and <br />asked that the following changes be made. <br />1. Those residents that notify the City office that they will be <br />on vacation will not be charged a penalty for not returning <br />their card. <br />2. Before the water is turned off, the resident should be <br />notified by certified mail of the City's intentions. <br />3. Reword the policy so it states that if a resident is <br />not returning the meter card, but is paying their water <br />bill, the water will not be turned off. <br />4.
