FEB 171982 <br />pAOlf A8 f 6E <br />Utility Department has suggested increasing the deposits <br />for those who are renting. Attorney Brandenburg noted that <br />the deposit procedure has also been clarified, as well as <br />some areas regarding septic tanks. <br />Chairman Scurlock hoped we would be in compliance with <br />the Public Service Commission; that we would be consistent <br />with current thinking, such as addressing the problem of <br />the poor. <br />Lengthy discussion ensued regarding the collection <br />problem the Utilities Department has had with the renter <br />customers. The Board discussed various word changes in the <br />proposed ordinance pertaining to the 10 year flood plain, <br />and it was felt this should be referred to as the 100 year <br />flood plain. <br />Motion was made by Commissioner Lyons, seconded by <br />Commissioner Bird that the Board shall not adopt the policy <br />of the deposit differential between the renter and the home- <br />owner at this time. <br />Utilities Director Liner explained that it was not <br />their intent to generate additional income; it was just to <br />prevent the hassel their department has been encountering. <br />The Chairman called for the question. It was voted on <br />and carried unanimously. <br />Commissioner Lyons suggested adding the phrase "of <br />customer's lines" to the text on page five to make the <br />sentence read: "Meter, Re -Reads and Leak Inspection of <br />Customer's Lines - $5.00." <br />Engineer Davis suggested various alternatives relating <br />to the problem of defining the flood plain. <br />On Motion made by Commissioner Bird, seconded by Commis- <br />sioner Wodtke, the Board unanimously agreed to strike the <br />last sentence completely on page 7, item 3. <br />Lengthy discussion followed regarding septic tanks. <br />5 <br />
