Mr. Bone said that while he was on the Council it paid off, So the night that it paid off he made his speech to the effect that it was paid off, and we can drop the $4.50 off the water bill, and Mr. Malone said no, we need the money. Mr. Bone went on to say that when this is figured for the next budget, he would like for the Council to look to the business people that are paying this, it is as unfair to them as anyone. Barney Bray was also present stating that he has the same attitude as you do. Mr. Bray pointed out that if the City would look in to it, there are institutions in the City that pay only $5.50 to have two or three hundred feet of road frontage, where he might pay $80.00 for an apartment complex where he has only 80 foot of road frontage. Mr. Bray said the apartment house people that are here feel like we should not pay some fee, but they would like for the City to go back and look at this problem with the fee and develope a fair and equitable fee for everyone. Councilman Neeley` and Councilman Fulbright voiced their concern about taking the fee off of the apartment owners, and not removing it from the residential customers. Mayor Clifford requested that the City Manager bring 'some type suggestion to the Council, and appointed Councilman Boyd, Councilman Neeley, and Councilman Fulbright as a committee to study the Solid Waste Health and Safety Service Fee and bring back a recommendation to the Council. After further discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Fulbright, seconded by Councilman Jenkins to table action on authorizing preparation of an ordinance revising Section 16 -42 (a) (1) of the Code of Ordinances providing that the Solid Waste Health and Safety Service Fee of $4.50 not be applied to residential units which are a part of a multi- family complex consisting of three or more units.
