John Aul, 526 Adams Street, stated he had four items, namely: (1) Adams Street project, (2) liquor store, (3) City Hall, and (4) garbage.

Jim DeMeyer, 364 Larson Street SW, asked if the hearing was on truth in taxation or the budget.

A discussion followed regarding information on the tax increment districts. Arnold Witte, 635 Lincoln Avenue SW, stated he had never seen the figures published in the paper.

During the 1991 legislative session, the law was changed. The current statute requires the following: 1. The sign bear the international symbol of access, (the wheelchair); 2. The sign be white on a blue background; 3. The sign state Violators are subject to a fine un to $200• Signs sold after Au- gust 1, 1991, must conform to all of the design requirements. For purposes of this statute, a parking space that is clearly identified as reserved for physically dis- abled persons by a permanently posted sign that does not meet all design standards, is considered designated and reserved for physically dis- abled persons. It is optional for the sign to state either Handicapped Parking, Disability Parking or just Parking. Trends indicate though that the term "disability" is gaining popularity and if you should be in a position to recom- mend language, Margot Imdieke, Accessibil- ity Advocate for the Disability Council, would encourage you to recommend the term Disabilily Parking, Although Chapter 1340 doesn't cover the criteria for Handicapped/Disability Parking signs, any assistance you could provide in spreading the word would be greatly appre- ciated.

Phase 1 of the proposed services includes completing a Hydrographic Study of Otter Lake to determine the depth of the water, and the depth and composition of the sediments in the lake. Phase 2 is proposed to include completing the necessary work to obtain a permit for dredging the lake to a depth suitable for recreational use and environmental improvements related to cleaner water and improved fish habitat. The two bids received for Phase 1 services were from James M. Montgomery Consulting Engineers ($ 18,500) and from Barr Engineering Company ($14,000).

Rodeberg, P.E. Director of Engineering Public Works Department City of Hutchinson 37 Washington Avenue West Hutchinson, MN 55350 Re: Otter Lake Hydrographic Survey -- Proposal Dear John: October 5, 1992 Pursuant to our discussion on September 23, 1 have put together the following proposed WORK SCOPE and COST ESTIMATE for conducting a hydrographic survey of Otter Lake. As I said to you and Bob, the City should probably resurvey the lake to determine current depths, before any dredging activities are undertaken. The most recent hydrographic map of Otter Lake available from the • Minnesota Department of Natural Resources was prepared in 1976 (copy enclosed). Water depths have probably changed significantly since then and would affect dredging quantity estimates. Therefore, I suggest you consider having Barr Engineering Co. conduct the following work to establish current water depths, and to estimate sediment deposition rates. WORK SCOPE Determination of Current Water Depths and the Rate of Sediment Deposition Barr Engineering Co. will conduct a hydrographic survey to determine current water depths and the average annual sedimentation rate of Otter Lake. The survey, to be completed during January of 1993, will determine lake depths throughout Otter Lake. Standard survey techniques will be used to establish perpendicular transects at 300 -foot intervals, thus establishing approximately 300 sounding locations. [Figure 1 illustrates the survey grid for Nugget Lake (Pierce County, Wisconsin) on a similar project conducted by Ban during 1991.] At each location, the depth of water (including ice) will be recorded either by lowering a sounding weight to the bottom or with an electronic depth finder. This information will then be used to construct a bathymetric map (depth contour map) of Otter Lake. Although not included in this proposal, sediment core samples could also be collected during this proposed survey for later chemical analyses to determine how dredge spoils could be used. The change in lake water volumes over time will be used to determine the average annual rate of sedimentation in Otter Lake. The water volumes of the lake during 1976 and 1993 will be determined from the bathymetric maps drawn in 1978 and 1993, respectively. The difference in volumes can be attributed to the addition of sediments to the lake (i.e., the change in lake water volume is equivalent to the volume of sediment deposited in the lake). The volume of sediment divided by the • 16 year time interval over which the sediment deposition occurred is an approximation of the average annual sedimentation rate of Otter Lake. [Figures 2 and 3 depict the results of the 1991 hydrographic 9-2e- Mr. John P. Rodeberg, P.E. October 5, 1992 Page 2 • survey of Nugget Lake, for example. Lake volume computations from Figures 3 and 4 were used to calculate sediment deposition rate there. The latter map (Figure 4) illustrates lake depths in 1972.] Data from the proposed survey will also be used to estimate the size of a sedimentation basin necessary to protect the lake from sediment infilling; such a basin could isolate sediment deposition in an area where it could be conveniently removed periodically in the future. COST ESTIMATE Based on our previous work at Nugget Lake, we believe a similar hydrographic survey of Otter Lake will cost approximately $14,000. This figure was estimated by scaling our 1991 Nugget Lake project budget ($3,765 for 90 sounding sites) up to cover the 300 estimated sounding sites required for Otter Lake, plus an additional 10 percent for cost inflation over the two years since 1991. (Collection of sediment samples for chemical analyses to determine their suitability for disposal is not included in this Cost Estimate.)

Currently, the Police Civil Service Commission does not have a current list of potential promotional candidates within the police department. Therefore, I would at this time like to move forward and develop a list of candidates that could be promoted if a lieutenants position is approved as well as if any sergeant positions would need to be replaced in the future. I am anticipating asking the police commission to conduct a written examination, an oral examination conducted by the commission, and the final phase an oral examination conducted by myself. Because of the newness of a promotional opportunity within the police •department I envision that it would be several months before a written examination could be conducted as it will require this amount of time for candidates to study the required written material. Therefore, I would not envision a test being given before August or September of 1993. As previously mentioned, this is a request only to move ahead with the promotional examination. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this memorandum, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience. /lkg 93-01-0002 9-� E REVENUE CITY OF HUTCHINSON 1993 BUDGET CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FUND PERMANANT TRANSFER ELECTRIC/GAS UTIL INTEREST MISCELLANEOUS TOTAL REVENUE EXPENDITURES CAPITAL OUTLAY Prior Years - Funding CIVIC ARENA - BALANCE OF COMMITTMENT CITY HALL - PREVIOUS FUNDING 1993 Funding CROW RIVER CLEAN UP CITY HALL • CIVIC ARENA - ICE MAT REPAIR Arena Entry 8 Hockey Boards TOTAL EXPENDITURE REVENUES OVER (UNDER) EXPENDITURES FUND BALANCE RESERVED FOR CITY HALL, CIVIC ARENA AND OTHER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS 1990 1991 1992 1993 ACTUAL ACTUAL BUDGET BUDGET $250,000 $250,000 $250,000 $275,000 17,699 27,497 10,500 10,500 19,013 0 0 0 $286,712 $277,497 $260,500 $285,500 $33,377 $99,039 (1) 13,836 222,289 $125,000 150,000 $33,377 $99,039 $0 $511,125 253,335 178,458 260,500 (225,625) $385,415 $563,873 $824,373 $0 Note (1) Budget for 1992 did not include following expenditures which have occurred Civic Arena 3,748 More 4 "phase II" Bldg 595,000 598,748 • REVISED fund balance 225,625 -1- Regular Meeting July 27, 1992 Commissioners Daggett, Lyke, Cornell and Ward were present; Commissioner Beatty was absent; also present were Mgr.

This past Tuesday, January 5, 1993, the Cable Television Advisory Committee, along with Council representative John Mlinar and City Administrator Gary Plotz met with the principal of Owl Engineering, Garret (Gary) Lysiak, to discuss the need for a technical audit and also to visit with Mr. Lysiak about other cable issues. Among subjects that were discussed was the possibility of doing an overbuild which would mean that the City would build a competing cable television franchise to ensure that the City would receive adequate service. We also discussed the ongoing need for a review of technical information provided by the cable company under federal law at six month intervals. It is probable that a limited ongoing relationship with Mr. Lysiak will continue for the purpose of considering this data, but that decision can be deferred to a later date. We also discussed the probability that the City will be able to recover its testing expenditure. Under City ordinance, if the system fails to meet appropriate standards, the cable franchisee is required to pay the testing expenditure and accordingly, since, in Mr. Lysiak's experience, many of the systems in surrounding communities have failed, it is more probable than not that the City will recover its expenditure. *CERTIFIED AS A CIVIL TRIAL SPECIALIST BY THE MINNESOTA STATE BAH ASSOCIATION DAVID B.

This past Tuesday, January 5, 1993, the Cable Television Advisory Committee, along with Council representative John Mlinar and City Administrator Gary Plotz met with the principal of Owl Engineering, Garret (Gary) Lysiak, to discuss the need for a technical audit and also to visit with Mr. Lysiak about other cable issues. Among subjects that were discussed was the possibility of doing an overbuild which would mean that the City would build a competing cable television franchise to ensure that the City would receive adequate service. We also discussed the ongoing need for a review of technical information provided by the cable company under federal law at six month intervals. It is probable that a limited ongoing relationship with Mr. Lysiak will continue for the purpose of considering this data, but that decision can be deferred to a later date. We also discussed the probability that the City will be able to recover its testing expenditure. Under City ordinance, if the system fails to meet appropriate standards, the cable franchisee is required to pay the testing expenditure and accordingly, since, in Mr. Lysiak's experience, many of the systems in surrounding communities have failed, it is more probable than not that the City will recover its expenditure. *CERTIFIED AS A CIVIL TRIAL SPECIALIST BY THE MINNESOTA STATE BAH ASSOCIATION -�T "CERTIFIED AS A REAL PROPERTY LAW SPECIALIST BY THE MTNNESOTA STATE BAR ASSOCIATION Mr. Gary D. Plotz January 8, 1993 Paget The enclosed contract was originally submitted by Owl Engineering in early 1992. Lysiak has agreed to conduct the same tests for the same cost, with no change in the contract perimeters. His firm has been used by Hutchinson Utilities as well as KDUZ-KKJR and it was the recommendation of the committee that we immediately begin the technical audit.

A wealth of pertinent experience is offered by owl Engineering, Inc. Their innovative approach to the communications problems confronting the City of Hutchinson, Minnesota is well worth the modest cost of their professional services. Introduction and Background The City of Hutchinson, Minnesota is presently served by the Star Cablevision and desires an evaluation of the cable television system to be performed to determine the technical integrity of the entire system. This procedure is required because of the fact that the cable system has advised the City of their intent to request a change in ownership of the entire cable television system. The City must make a determination on the franchise renewal. At the completion of the proposed study as briefly outlined above, Owl Engineering will provide a written report and make a verbal presentation (if required) that details the results of the study. Proposed Project Plan The tasks that will be accomplished as a part of the Owl Engineering project include: Section One Careful evaluation of the existing franchises to determine if the various systems are constructed in accordance with the intent of the franchise document. Section Two Perform technical measurements at the head -end of the system to determine if it is in technical compliance with the present technical standards of the FCC as well as the status of the system with the newly adopted FCC technical standards. 1 0 Section Three Perform technical measurements at widely separated points in the system to determine the integrity at the system extremities. Section Four Review the maintenance procedures used by the system and determine the effectiveness of these programs and procedures. Section Five Preparation of report of findings with remedial recommendations on how to bring the cable television system into compliance with the franchise document. Detailed Project Procedures Section One 0 a) Obtain copies of each franchise document from the Commission and meet with them to discuss the project. b) Review the franchise document to determine how the system was intended to be designed and built. c) Inspect and evaluate the cable television head -end and external plant to determine if the system is constructed in accordance with the intent of the franchise agreement. d) Prepare a report of findings with remedial recommendations on how to bring the Cable Television System into compliance with the franchise agreement, if needed. • 0 F Section Two 1- Technical measurements will be performed at the head -end of the cable television system. The tests to be performed are as follows: o Visual Frequency o Aural Frequency o Video Carrier Level o Aural Carrier Level o Picture Quality (TASO) o Aural Modulation level (deviation) o Signal to Noise Ratio o Spurious Signals. • o Hum Measurement Procedure The measurement procedures that will be used in performing the above measurements are as follows: Visual and Aural Frequency A calibrated frequency counter will be used to measure every active channel at each head -end facility. Video and Aural Carrier Level A spectrum analyzer and a calibrated field strength meter will be used to measure the video and aural carrier levels of each of the active channels at all of the head -end facilities. Picture Quality A battery operated consumer -grade color television receiver will be used to evaluate the picture quality of every active channel at each of the head -end facilities. Each active channel will be evaluated using the . TASO method of picture grading. M 0 Aural Modulation An IFR model 12005 signal monitor will be utilized to measure every active channel at each of the head -end facilities. This test measures the modulation deviation level and is a measure of how loud the sound channel is in relation to the FCC requirements. Signal to Noise Ratio A spectrum analyzer will be used to measure the signal to noise ratio of selected channels to determine the particular channel noise. Spurious Signals A spectrum analyzer will be used to evaluate and measure the each head - end facility to determine if there are any unwanted, spurious signals that would cause interference and degradation of system quality. Hum A spectrum analyzer and a calibrated Field Strength Meter will be used to measure the amount of hum present on each of the active channels at • all of the head -end facilities. A sample of the test work sheets is included with this proposal as an attachment. Section Three A random selection of one extreme end (extremity) of the system along with six additional points will all be tested to determine compliance with both the current and newly adopted FCC technical procedures. These six locations will be selected from the subscriber list on a random basis. The following tests will be performed at each of these points: Visual Carrier Level Spurious Signals Frequency Response Hum Picture Quality (TASO) Signal to Noise Ratio The measurement procedures that will be used in performing the above • measurements are as follows: 4 F • Video Carrier Level A spectrum analyzer and a calibrated field strength meter will be used to measure the video carrier levels of each of the active channels at all of the head -end facilities. Picture Quality A battery operated consumer -grade color television receiver will be used to evaluate the picture quality of every active channel at each of the head -end facilities. Each active channel will be evaluated using the TASO method of picture grading. Aural Modulation An IFR model 12005 signal monitor will be utilized to measure every active channel at each of the head -end facilities. This test measures the modulation deviation level and is a measure of how loud the sound channel is in relation to the FCC requirements. Signal to Noise Ratio A spectrum analyzer will be used to measure the signal to noise ratio of selected channels to determine the particular channel noise. Spurious Signals A spectrum analyzer will be used to evaluate and measure the each head - end facility to determine if there are any unwanted, spurious signals that would cause interference and degradation of system quality. Hum A spectrum analyzer and a calibrated Field Strength Meter will be used to measure the amount of hum present on each of the active channels at all of the head -end facilities. Frequency Response A spectrum analyzer will be used to measure the overall frequency response of the each of the systems. These same measurements will be repeated at one location on the institutional network (I -NET). These tests will provide a verification • of the isolation between the up -stream and down -stream channelson the network. 5 Section Four The maintenance procedures for the headend system will be reviewed as follows: a) Review the Proof of Performance data for the previous two (2) years and determine if the systems are in compliance with the intent of the franchise agreements. b) Review the quarterly Cumulative Leakage measurement data and determine if the maintenance and repair procedures are keeping the system in compliance with current FCC standards and procedures. C) Review the previous two (2) CLI reports submitted to the FCC as required by Section 76.611 of the Rules and Regulations of the FCC. d) Review a sampling of the customer complaints to determine if the system maintenance program is addressing the needs of the subscribers. • The review will also include an evaluation of the I -Net using the same procedures as outlined above. Section Five A report of findings will be prepared utilizing the results of the previous four sections of the project. A list of remedial recommendations will be provided for all the items that require attention in order to bring the various cable television systems into compliance with the franchise documents. Owl engineering is also available to address the Cable Commissions on the outcome of the project. Examples of project worksheets are included to cover Head -end, System and I -Net testing. They have been setup so the measurements taken in the field can be easily analyzed. 0 N C� Tasks and Assignments The tasks associated with the proposed project will be done jointly by a Registered Professional Engineer, a Professional Engineer in Training (EIT), Cable Television Engineer and a support staff of technicians and documentation assistants. The Registered Professional Engineer is: Mr. Garrett G. Lysiak P.E., the EIT is Mr. Michael Radovich.. Mr. Lysiak will be the Project Engineer for the proposed project and will represent Owl Engineering, Inc. in technical as well as "business" matters, with the Cable Commission. The two principal investigators for the proposed project are: o Mr. Garrett G. Lysiak P.E. o Mr. Michael Radovich E.I.T. Unlike hiring a large consulting engineering firm, if the Cable Commissions selects owl Engineering, Inc. to conduct the study, Mr. • Lysiak and Mr. Radovich will personally conduct the entire study, manage the entire project, write the final reports and make any necessary verbal presentations. They will be assisted, as needed, in the study by a group of experienced technical, operational and clerical professionals, who all have a demonstrated ability to "get the job done", but the bulk of project activity will be conducted personally by Mr. Lysiak and Mr. Radovich. When a large consulting engineering firm is hired, a well qualified, experienced engineer may appear to "sell" the project and the same person may appear to present the final report but seldom does that "expert" have much more to do with the project. The bulk of their project work is usually done by junior engineers or by non -engineers. 0 7 rI A brief biographical sketch of each investigator follows. MR. GARRETT G. LYSIAK is a Consulting Electronic Engineer with over 20 years of experience in the area of Telecommunications. Mr. Lysiak received his formal communications education at New York University in New York City, New York. He received a B.E. in Electrical Engineering and also attended graduate school.

Mr. Radovich has successfully passed the Engineer -in -Training (E.I.T.) exam in preparation for his Professional Engineers examination. 41 C� Work Plan Day One Garrett Lysiak will meet with Cable Commission to review Cable Franchise and address any questions. He will meet with the Chief Technicians of the cable system to review their Proof of Performance and C.L.I. tests to verify compliance with FCC regulations. Day Two The cable system headend and external plant will be inspected to determine if it is constructed in accordance with the intent of the franchise document. Day Three and Four The Star Cablevision Headend tests, I -Net, 6 extremity tests and 6 Home . tests will be completed. All Headend and field tests will be performed in accordance with the detail test procedure. Day Five The system will be tested for CLI leakage and the data will be compared with the tests conducted by the cable system in accordance with the current FCC CLI requirements. Day Six and Seven The results of the testing and inspections will be analyzed, compiled and a final report with remedial recommendations will be prepared and submitted to the Cable Commission one week in advance of the scheduled presentation meeting. NOTE: If time restraints require, additional personnel could be utilized to shorten up the testing time. • 0 • Time and Costs The cost to accomplish the five project sections, as described in the previous portion of this proposal, is $5,150.00. The major cost components of the proposed consulting contract is for professional staff hours. This cost represents the total compensation for professional staff time; there are no •overhead charges`, "fixed fees", 'profit", "fringe benefits" or "space charges" added to the staff costs. The only other project charges will be direct labor for support and necessary project expenses, as detailed below: Week One: Consulting Engineer- 32 hours @$100/hour $3,200.00 Associate Engineer- 26 hours @$75/hour $1.950.00 Total Proposed Project Cost $5,150.00 The estimated total project cost amount is the figure that will be used in the consulting engineer agreement. It is a 'not -to -exceed' amount; it is valid for thirty days. If additional tasks are added to the project or greater emphasis placed on any of the phases, the consultant portion of the project will increase. In general, additional tasks can be included by adding the cost per hour of professional time required to accomplish the tasks plus the actual expenses associated with doing the tasks in accordance with the following table. Consulting Engineer: $100.00/hour Associate Engineer: $75.00/hour Clerical staff: $30.00 Mileage: $00.25/mile The total time to complete the project report, as outlined previously, will not exceed 30 days after a Consulting Engineer Agreement is signed. The cost of the project is based upon the measurement program that is proposed. The project cost could be reduced by eliminating some of the tests or increased if the Commission desires additional testing. Owl Engineering stands ready to negotiate the cost of the project if the projected amount is greater than the amount available to the Cable Commissions. 11 Qualifications Owl Engineering, Inc. is a Minnesota Corporation located at 1306 West County Road F in Arden Hills, Minnesota. The firm specializes in communications system design, evaluations, specifications and measurements at all radio frequency bands. Specific areas of expertise at Owl Engineering, Inc. include: Two -Way Radio System Design Communication Systems Interference Studies and Evaluation Transmitter Site Evaluation Broadcast Studio Design RFI/EMI Studies Transmitter System Design Grounding/Shielding Techniques Directional AM Antennas Telephone System Interfacing Multi -Station FM Antennas Microprocessor/Logic Design • Audio/Video System Design Custom Software Development CATV/MATV System Operations CLI Measurements FCC Application Preparation System Intermodulation Analysis Coverage Predications Emergency Medical Services Communications System Design Owl Engineering, Inc. is unique among Registered Professional Consulting Engineering firms in that Owl Engineering has the capability of generating "in-house" radio site coverage maps. Preparation of the theoretical site coverage maps for all radio frequencies (including the 800 MHz band) is accomplished using existing state-of-the-art equipment in Owl Engineering's Arden Hills office and a U.S. Geological Survey digital computer data base. This capability allows rapid coverage predictions to be made without a large capital expenditure being required. The firm also has a complete set of measurement capabilities and does not have to rely on "Vendor Loaned Equipment" to complete any of its projects. There is also a fully equipped laboratory that can be used to evaluate communications gear to determine compliance with the published specifications. • 12 s 0 i Another unique qualification of Owl Engineering is their ability to make absolute measurements in the field of all radio frequencies and for two- way communications systems and cable system frequencies. Thus, theoretical and actual radio communications system coverage of the proposed communications system can be determined before the fact. Thus, the effect of the costly changes in base equipment, site selection and mobile/portable radio equipment will be known at the conclusion of a "study" phase and prior to any implementation and the subsequent high costs. Owl Engineering has a fully equipped multi -engine aircraft that can be utilized in locating interference and RF leakage from non communications systems such as cable television systems. This allows larger systems to evaluate the leakage generated by their systems. 13 References Mr. Larry Graf Radio Station KDUZ 6 KKJR Highway 15 North Hutchinson, MN 55350 (612) 587-2140 Project: Consulting Engineering Projects to improve radio station performance.

City Engineer 100 North Broadway New Ulm, Mn 56073 RE: Review of Bridge Structure Dear Mr. McClurg: FAX (507) 354-7977 FOR YOUR INFORMATION On Thursday, January 7th, 1993, members of the Crow River Task Force from the City of Hutchinson, along with a representative of Structural Specialties, visited the bridge in New Ulm to determine the feasibility of moving the bridge to Hutchinson for utilization as a pedestrian bridge. Structural Specialties performs work related to bridge construction/reconstruction. Warren Nelson, of • Structural Specialties, was engaged by the Task Force to review the feasibility for bridge relocation. The following representatives from the City attended the reviewal with you: CROW RIVER TASK FORCE Bud Daggett (Chairman) Skip Quade Bob Peterson Paul Ackland (Mayor) Marlin Torgerson (Councilmember) Dolf Moon (Park & Recreation Director) John Rodeberg (Director of Engineering) STRUCTURAL SPECIALTIES Warren Nelsen Although we had hoped that the condition of the bridge would allow dismantling of the structure and reconstruction in Hutchinson, it became evident after reviewal by Mr. Nelsen that the bridge was not salvageable for that use. He noted that many of the beams under the bridge were rusted to a point of extreme disintegration, and that the bridge had no further use except as scrap.

The potential for reuse of the structure was certainly worth the effort. If you have any questions or comments, please give me a call at (612) 234-4208. Singerely, JO' hi P. Rodeyerg, P.E.

I've estimated the value of the truck and equipment at between $2,500 and $3,000. The vehicle will require some maintenance in the box and under- carriage areas due to extensive rusting. I did allow the school maintenance crew to use the vehicle on a trial basis. /mjs 0 City Hall 37 Washington Avenue West (612)587-5151 Parks & Recreation 900 Harrington Street (612) 587-2975 Hutchinson, Minnesota 55350 - Pain ted on recvcled paper - Police Department 10 Franklin Street South (612) 587-2242 9_z, MEMORANDUM 0 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Steve Madson, Chief of PolicOr- • DATE: January 7, 1993 RE: Soft Body Armor Since five years has elapsed from the time of the initial issue of soft body armor for police officers in the Hutchinson Police Department it is time to replace said soft body armor. Soft body armor, according to manufacturers recommendations, should be replaced every five years. This is a requirement since the Kevlar material that makes up the soft body armor has a tendency to break down over a period of time from perspiration from the officers body being absorbed by the Kevlar and causes the Kevlar to break down its ability to resist projectile. Keeping this in mind, this memorandum will serve as a request to purchase nine soft body armor units for the following police officers: Steve Madson Ron Kirchoff John Gregor Scott Schwartz Mike Kirchoff Bill Mattsfield Dave Erlandson Chuck Jones Jim Haasl The necessary funds for the purchase of these units would come from the forfeiture fund and not from the current operating budget. Therefore, this memorandum will serve as a request to expend $4,457 for the purpose of purchasing the soft body armor. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this memorandum, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience. /lkg 92-01-0001 • C January 12, 1993 MEMO TO: MAYOR 8 CITY COUNCIL FROM: KEN MERRILL, FINANCE DIRECTOR SUBJECT: COUNTRY CLUB TERRACE WATER BILL Mr. Block has not paid the bill which had been discussed in November with the City Council. Council action at the November 23 meeting affirmed the billing in the amount of $15,755.74. The billing was sent with a letter requesting payment. On December 10 we billed (the normal quarter billing) Country Club Terrace for water and sewer based upon meter reads taken at the • master reading. The billing then totaled $23,588.38 (and included the $15,755.74 back billing). We received a letter and check from Hutch Inc in the amount of $17,775.52 with a form showing how the amount had been computed. We sent the check and information back again restating the amount which were due and needed to be paid to avoid late charges. (Mailed with a return receipt which has been received.) • We have yet to Block per that your review.
