PRESENT: Mayor Johnson, Hunt, Dick Johnson, Mottaz, Williams, Department Heads and City Engineer Prew. The 1993 budget was discussed with the Department Heads. IMPACT FEES FOR LIMITED BUSINESS The Council received a letter on Impact Fees from Attorney Filla. Impact Fees will be incorporated in the Limited Business ordinance. INFRASTRUCTURE FOR UTILITIES: City Engineer Prew provided the Council with a memo on Surface Water Management dated August 25, 1992. He asked if the storm water utility bill can be put on a tax statement from the County or does the city have to collect it with the water bill? Marilyn: My understanding is that it can be, but she would have to check with the County. Hunt had checked with a few residents who said they don't want to be reminded couple times a year how much it costs to live today. They would prefer it to come on their tax statement. The amount of staff time needed to do all of this may make it counterproductive. If Washington County won't do it, then we have to take a hard look at the administration costs. Williams voiced his concern about the 1% Rule business. We can charge fees if they are reasonable associated with expenses that we incur. If there is a new development along I-94 under our Limited Business Ordinance and they adhere to the 1% Rule, how can we charge roughly three times a residence. Prew: Regardless, if their water is going into something we maintain. There was council consensus on getting rid of the credits and the statement of general operation.
