Barry <br /> 2 stated that he is a strong ecologically-minded person. <br /> 3 <br /> 4 Linke stated that Mounds View has 2 times what the average <br /> 5 flow is. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Barry stated that he would still like to see the studies. <br /> 8 <br /> 9 Dave Jahnke stated that he had studied the documents provided <br /> 10 to him and would ask Council to delay any action and let the <br /> 11 public have input. Council could possible wait one more <br /> 12 month. <br /> 13 <br /> 14 Rod Kirtz asked if the SAC charge is based on the WAC charge. <br /> 15 <br /> 16 Linke explained that the WAC charge is set up by the MWCC. <br /> 17 <br /> 18 Rod Kirtz stated that he had heard from several building <br /> 19 inspectors not to hook up drain tile systems to sewer systems. <br /> 20 If WAC is increased then SAC is also increased? <br /> 21 <br /> 22 Linke stated that the City is not increasing WAC. <br /> 23 <br /> 24 Rod Kirtz stated that if more income is created if meters are <br /> 25 charged out than that will increase WAC which will also <br /> 26 increase SAC. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Linke stated that the WAC charge is a flat fee. <br /> 29 <br /> 30 Rhonda Smeija asked if the public would be getting more <br /> 31 information before a decision is made. <br /> 32 <br /> 33 Mayor Linke commented that he supports holding off. <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Smeja also asked a question regarding the fact that the meters <br /> 36 are running 98% and there are 2900 residential meters which <br /> 37 there is a loss of $32, 000 which she divided by 2900 to come <br /> 38 up with $11. 00 per year which would pay the $32, 000. <br /> 39 Smeja asked if the meters couldn't be changed out as the <br /> 40 houses are sold rather than all at once. <br /> 41 <br /> 42 Linke explained that the meters will keep getting worse and <br /> 43 the houses aren't turned over that quickly. The meters are <br /> 44 only a mechanical piece of equipment. Linke commented that <br /> 45 his was put in 1952 and he would be surprised if it were <br /> 46 running at 92%. To his knowledge, his meter has never been <br /> 47 worked on. <br /> 48 <br /> 49 Smeija asked what the WAC fund is used for. <br /> 50 <br />
