Commissioner Bird then brought up the area of commercial rates, stating that since he has been informed by the Attorney that we have the right in the agreement to re-evaluate these at any time, he would prefer to commence without the commercial rates and establish them in about one year's time when we have some experience. Motion was made by Commissioner Bird, seconded by Commissioner Wodtke for purposes of discussion, to change our position on commercial rates and not establish them at this time. Commissioner Wodtke stated that he could agree to this Motion provided that on issuance of the franchise we have notice from both franchisees what their commercial rates will be and that we have the ability to change these after a six month period. Commissioner Fletcher brought up a point of order and asked if there should be a Motion to reconsider. He did not believe this had been done on the previous action. Attorney Brandenburg agreed there should be a Motion to reconsider and that the Board did not follow correct parliamentary procedure on the last item, carrying out the action in one step instead of two. `He explained that motion to reconsider must be made by a person who voted on the prevailing side of the previous action, and a majority vote is sufficient for reconsideration. On Motion by Commissioner Bird, seconded by Commis- sioner Wodtke, the Board by a 4 to 1 vote, Commissioner Lyons voting in opposition, agreed to reconsider the commercial rate portion of the franchise. Motion was made by Commissioner Wodtke that the County will be notified of the commercial rates of the franchisees upon issuance of the franchise and of any changes thereafter and, after a six months' period, the County will establish a commercial rate after a proper study being made by staff.
