(second consideration) Connent: The purpose of this amendment is to require applicants for Class A Private Club Licenses to submit information regarding their private club status which will enable the City Council to determine if a Class A license should be granted. Action: Item No. 14 - i CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR A CHANGE IN PROCEDURE FOR ASSESSING �- FEES FOR SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE WATER DIVISION (first consideration). Comment: Two different methods are used by the City Water Division to set fees ' 1 and overhead at the present time. An actual charge for labor, matera expense is used when determining the charge for having the City Water Crews make taps to the water mains. For service charges such as meter installations, meter removals, etc., the ordinance says that the City Council must set a uniform fee. As a result of this latter provision, fees have dropped to a level far below the actual cost to the City. As an example, the present fee for an after -hour meter installation is $S.00; however, the City must pay a salary of $16.11 for an after - hour call -out to Water Division personnel. The ordinance under consid- eration would set service charge fees on a labor, material and overhead expense basis, as it is now done with water main taps. After passage of this ordinance, all work done by the Water Division for customers would be done on a labor, material and overhead expense basis.
