The last two items regarding the RTC Master A~eement and RTC Park A~eement will be discussed later in the agenda. 1) Amendment of the 2004 Schedule of Rates, Fees and Charges Finance Officer Lund explained this case is to bring back the water and sewer trul~k fees, which were previously adopted in January, of 2004, amended on August 10, 2004, and amended again on September 13, 2004. The increase in rates on August l0n` were due to a sewer and water study done by a consulting firm of the City. A developer came ibrward with concerns due to the large increase and the Council then amended the rates to a graduated increase, begirming at 25% of the total increase amount. After reviewing the water study it was determined it would be best to amend the rates back tO the 2004 January 1~' adopted rates. Any deten-nined increases will be brought forward in October for adoption on January 1, 2005. The recommendation tonight is to re-amend the rates for sewer and water trunk charges back to the January 2004 adopted rates of water at $1,327/unit and sewer at $596/unit. Motion by Councihnember Cook, seconded by Councilmernber Elvig, to ratify the recornrnendation of the Finance Committee and adopt Resolution #04-09-300 Amending the 2004 Schedule of Rtes, Fees and Charges to include the following: Water Trunk Charge $1,327/unit Sewer Trunk Charge $596/unit Motion calTied.
