t <br /> • 7. Old Business <br /> A. Sewer Rate Revision. Memo from Jim Fornell to Manager, Mayor <br /> and Council. Letter from MWCC to Jim Fornell. I feel Jim <br /> has done a good job of analyzing our present situation and <br /> concern with his recommendation re: the new rate. There are <br /> some problems under our system with meter readings, etc. , but <br /> I feel the advantages out weigh them. The Public Works <br /> Superintendent and myself will be evaluating the use of remote <br /> readers in the future. <br /> ACTION: Recommend approval of Ordinance as Jim has revised <br /> it. <br /> 8. New Business <br /> A. Attached is a draft of proposed permit form, rules, fees, etc. , <br /> for holding of softball tournaments. I have provided a copy <br /> of this to the group presently requesting permission and <br /> expect they will be present to discuss. I feel the fees, re- <br /> quirements, etc. , are minimal and will prevent problems other <br /> communities had before adopting similar rules. <br /> ACTION: Recommend approval . <br /> • 9 . Communication/Petitions <br /> A. Letter from Senator Robert Benedict re: bill to put moratorium <br /> on taxing of all home improvements . Letter and Bill attached. <br /> I discussed the Bill with Vern Peterson, Executive Director of <br /> the AMM and he expressed many of the same concerns I have about <br /> the Bill and indicated that the AMM would prefer to see the <br /> legislature offer those making repairs relief through income <br /> tax rebates, etc. , instead of complicating the property tax <br /> system further. The Bill would also provide inequities for <br /> those who already have made repairs of built features such as <br /> garages into their home. <br /> ACTION: Recommend we take no action on the Bill but send <br /> a letter to Senator Benedict under Mayor Miedtke 's <br /> signature explaining why we won't support. <br /> B. LMC requesting payment for labor relations subscriber services <br /> ($750 .00) This fee for this service is the same as for the <br /> last several years and we are receiving more than our money's <br /> worth of service I feel. <br /> ACTION: Recommend approval . <br /> C. Suburban Rate Authority Requesting Payment of $150 .00 . We have <br /> • discontinued membership sometime next year but are obligated <br /> to pay this according to the Joint Powers Agreement Creating <br />
