Mr. Lauer taped Mr .

We will allow <br /> the majority to decide if they want City sewer, The <br /> City has also attempted to acquire federal monies , <br /> but we were told funding was not available. <br /> The City will mail a letter to all of you outlining <br /> "hidden" costs, such as connection fees, SAC charges, <br /> quarterly billing, and the proposed 15-year schedule <br /> of assessment payments. <br /> We will attempt to submit to you all costs that might <br /> be involved with this project. We are attempting to <br /> segment the project for lower costs. We will not have <br /> these segmented costs for you until after September 15 , <br /> 1980 . The City wi11 notify you by letter after September 15, <br /> with this new information and a meeting will be arranged <br /> for you before October 6 , 1980 , at which time, you will <br /> have the opportunity to vote on the project along with <br /> any appeals that might be submitted. , <br /> The public information meeting adjourned at 10 : 10 P.M. <br /> , � <br /> � J <br /> ����� �, �;�+ � <br /> -�'y �, <br /> William B.
