Explanation/Summary (attach suppleene6c sheets as SUMMARY, At the August 23, 1993, City Council meeting, consideration of Ordinance No. 528 that would repeal the sunset clause of the Street Light Utility was tabled. This extra time afforded the opportunity for the new Councilmember to come on board and to clarify some questions that had arisen, which was done at the September 7, 1993, Council Work Session. When the Street Light Utility was created, it was given a sunset date. The reason for the sunset clause was to allow the City Council to reevaluate the effectiveness of the Utility, to allow an opportunity to reexamine its rate structure and determine if the Utility would be continued or discontinued. It is important to note that action taken on this item would either continue or discontinue the Street Light Utility. If this Utility were to be continued, the rates could be changed after the fate of the Utility has been decided. The rate structure could be changed via resolution, effective January 1, 19�4. i Tim Cruikshank, Asst. to City Admin. RECOMMENDATION: A staff recommendation is not made for this item. The options are to waive the reading and formally introduce Ordinance No. 528, repeal of the sunset clause of the Street Light Utility or a motion to deny approval.
