SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - November 9, 2006
ITEM: *10.B.2. Consider an ordinance amending Chapter 10, Section, 10.201.16,
of the Code regarding water and sewer connection and transfer
fees. (Second Reading)
Department: Finance
Staff Person: Cindy Demers, Finance Director
Justification: This is the second reading of the ordinance.
In September 2005, the City Council adopted updated ordinances regarding the City's utility
billing policies. The section related to same day service requests for new water service was
updated however it needs to be further clarified to indicate that a fee will be charged if a
customer requests same day service for a new connection regardless of the time of day the
new service is connected. This is the only recommended change made to the ordinances.
