CITIZEN COMMENTS AND REQUESTS
Henry decker, 7350 Spring Lake Road asked what the City's regulations were regarding
thecutting downof diseased trees and what rebates were available to cover that
cost. Hestated that he had received estimates from different firms that would cut
downhistreesandthatwhilehereceivedalowbidof $100.00fromonefirm, the
firmtheCityhadapprovedforcuttingthetreesandallowingthecitizensarebate
would charge $157.50 per tree.
Administrator Achen replied that State law provides that any rebate that the State
provides with State funds has tobewith acontractor contracted through the City.
Thus, Mr. Becker would not be able to collect a rebate if he chose a firm other than
what the City had approved.
Mr. Becker stated that other villages were allowing anyone tocut down the trees, and
still providing arebate. He cited Roseville as one example. Administrator Achen
explainedthatthesevillagesmostlikelyweregivingarebatefromthepropertytaxes
withinthatvillage, notfromStatefunds.
