Mounds View City Council July 9, 2001 Regular Meeting Page 16 Council Member Stigney questioned the wording in Section 2.3 in relation to a drastic adjustment in any utilities due to inflation, act of God, etc. City Administrator Miller suggested the wording be changed to "There should be an adjustment in any utilities," etc. City Attorney Riggs explained that this provision was intended to cover the drastic spikes in utility costs. He added that the word "inflation" is taking into account the CPI. Council Member Stigney felt the increase in utilities should be the tenant's responsibility. Council Member Marty pointed out that if the cost would increase drastically, it would likely be brought before the Council.
