FROM: Richard Lee, Engineer I, Engineering/Utilities Department-R.L•
THRU: James W. Shira, P.E., City Engineer/Utilities Director
SUBJECT: Ordinance#2001-17- Second Reading
Attached for your review and action is the Second Reading to Ordinance #2001-17. The first
reading to the Ordinance was conducted on June 19, 2001. As a reminder, the new Ordinance
was drafted after Orange County's request to reduce the surcharge for non - resident customers
from 25%to 20% and then 1%per year over 5 years to 15%.
On January 26, 2001, a memorandum to the City Commission was drafted to introduce the new
Ordinance that stipulated the new surcharge rates as mentioned above. This memo was approved
by the Commission on February 16, 2001 and staff was directed to proceed with formulating the
new Ordinance. Shortly thereafter, the new Ordinance was presented and approved by the City
Commission on June 19, 2001 (First Reading of Ordinance #2001-17) that describes the new
surcharge on non-resident customers.
Attached hereto is the Second Reading for the aforementioned document. I recommend that the
City Commission authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the attached documents.
