Mounds. View City Council August 24, 1981 <br />Regular Meeting Page Three <br />ze sewer charges are billed to the City and how <br />the City in turn bills the residents. <br />Clerk /Administrator Pauley noted that Mr. Thesenga <br />and the other businesses involved had been billed <br />an estimated charge for the first year, before a <br />determination was made as to how much water they <br />were actually using, which was why their bills <br />seemed to increase so much. <br />Mr. Thesenga stated he did not feel they should <br />have to pay the same rate as everyone else for <br />sewer, when it was just water they were putting <br />into the ground. Mayor McCarty again explained <br />the rational of the billing. <br />Motion /Second: McCarty /Forslund to deny the re- <br />quest from Mr. Thesenga and the Mounds View <br />Industrial Park Owners. <br />4 ayes 0 nays <br />Attorney Meyers explained the purpose of the <br />gDM fund.
