<br />
<br /> 60-7S - "I submit the attached ordinance amending Section 2~-7.of the City 'Code and recommend
<br />that it be placed on first reading. This ordinance is with reference to sewer connection charges. This amend-
<br />ment would eliminate the SDO.00 charge for 4 inch contlectionsand make both 4 inch and 6 ~inch connections $60.00.
<br />Mos~_~Quse connections are~4 luck; however, c~ the sewers more recently installed, the laterals are run with 6
<br />inch pipe which brought about the differential in the charge. Since these laterals serve the same property,
<br />and the.cost of the pipe is practically the same, there would be no difference in the labor of installing the
<br />~ inch or 4 i$c~ lateral, we~feel that one charge for either would be more practical and less confusing."
