The rate for residences wii
probably go from $3.50 pi
mon h to $4 if the ordinane
oasses. It was explained tha
the rate for residences ha.
seen raised only the 15% re
juired by agreement as th
present rate is considere
equitable.
It was pointed out that b\
billing water users only siv
times a year that the c:ty could
cut down on expenses such at
posting, billing and other
bookkeeping procedures.
It is proposed that the rate
for apartments be increased j
from $2.50 for each user to $4 j
each. This is based on the
.theory that an apartment
1 family utilizes as much watei
as tenants of standard resi
1 dences.
1 The biggest hike in rates
will hit local canneries. It is
suggested that the rate be
raised from $30 per month to
$100. This is based upon infor-'
mation that canneries main
tain practically a constant flow
oi' water during operations.
Soda fountains and soda
works rates will probably
double. They now pay $12.50.
The new rate will be $25.
Laundries will be increased
from $3 to $10 and restaurants
from $10 to 15.
The rates for power houses
jumps from $7 50 to $25 and
is explained that the increase
is because of the amount of
water used in cooling systems
of electrical generating opera
tions.
Bars and night clubs NOT
serving food will only increase
one d j1 ar. from $7.50 to $8.50.
Bars a id night clubs serving
food w.ll now pay $23.50. Meat
and Grocery Markets will be
increased from three to ten.
It usually takes two read
ings of an ordinance for it to
become effective. However,
under a suspension of the rules
whereby the first reading is
considered the second an ordi
nance can take effect immedi
ately upon passage.
| The first reading will be
( heard on April 27.
