INTEROFFICE MEMO
TO: All Council Members
FROM: Buck Hubbard, Mayor
RE: Veto of Ordinance 0-85-589
As required under Section 3.14 of the City Charter, I am hereby
notify; ng a 11 members of the Council that on Monday, December 9,
1985, I vetoed Ordinance 0-85-589 for the following reasons:
1) I feel that this ordinance would penalize those citizens
within the established subdivisions who having been paying
for the the system and thru no faul t of thei r own have not
had sewer service;
2) I feel that the present ordinance can be amended and give
consideration to property owners in established subdivisions;
3) I do not feel that this ordinance is fair, therefore, I can
not in good conscience support it.

INTEROFFICE MEMO
TO: City Council
FROM: Buck Hubbard, Mayor
RE: Possible amendments to Ordinance 0-76-220
(Water and Sewer Policy)
I wish to go on record that I realize that the installation on sewer
lines far exceeds the assessment presently being charged. This
fee in my opinion was not enough at the time it was passed. The
amount provided in Ordinance 0-85-589 (vetoed) would still be
insufficient to cover the entire cost.
If my veto is upheld, I would entertain having a work session or
sessions to carefully consider alternative financing of such projects
and provide for line assessment to all properties occupied or vacant
at the time the line are placed.
It is my belief that the present ordinance can be amended so that
those citizens in the subdivisions that have been substantially
developed will be fairly treated. I believe this can be accomplished.
Sincerely,
~
