Body

After Thursday’s Council Oversight committee meeting, the Mayor asked the City Manager to prepare a Resolution that could be placed on the City Council’s Agenda to allow Council to consider a more formal "review the connection fees relative to their sufficiency to fund new capacity no later than November 1, 2016" as provided for in Ordinance O-1415-18.  The requested Resolution is included in this item.  In addition, City Staff will add “continued discussion” on this topic to the Council’s Agenda for next Tuesday’s Council Conference.  City staff will provide a brief wrap up of the discussion points from last Thursday’s meeting and then be available to answer questions of Council.
