ciated water facility improvements. Inasmuch as <br />the City's Capital :Improvements Program estimates <br />the construction of` the Howard Berry Water Treat- <br />ment Plant in 1991 or 1992 and the City is contem- <br />plating the placemE.nt of a 1.5 mgd elevated water <br />tank at this site, City staff feel it important to <br />begin the process of annexing this 7.5 acre site <br />to the City of Louisville. <br />Carnival asked why this annexation referral is <br />before Council at this time. <br />Hundley responded :Mating that since this facility <br />is for the City of Louisville, it should be <br />annexed to the City. Secondly, the City may con- <br />struct an elevated water tank and would need to go <br />through a County approval process for the use of <br />the site for an elE~vated storage tank should the <br />City choose not to annex the site. Inasmuch as <br />the City intends to annex the site anyway, Hundley <br />recommended that tlhe the City proceed with the <br />annexation process at this time. <br />Mayor Fauson moved that Council refer this <br />annexation request to the Louisville Planning <br />Commission. Mohr :seconded. Unanimous. <br />APPROVAL OF S.T.S. CONTRACT FOR <br />TRANSPORTATION Hundley reminded Council that during budget <br />deliberations for ]?Y 1987, the issue of providing <br />transportation at perhaps a lower cost was <br />discussed. In 198Ei, approximately $13,500 was <br />expended for 30 hours per week for transportation <br />for the City's seniors. <br />Krisko explained that this proposal is with <br />Special Transit Sy:atem for a cost of $5,360 <br />annually to provide service to Louisville with <br />emphasis on elderly and disabled individuals. <br />This proposed contract provides for 37 1/2 hours <br />of transportation .service weekly. Initially, the <br />City of Louisville vans would be used to provide <br />the service; sometime in April, STS expects to <br />have their own van to be used under this contract. <br />STS has been providing service to Louisville for <br />the last few weeks. <br />Cathy Bittler, Senior Coordinator, met with STS <br />working out sections of the contract including the <br />adjustment of the schedule so that a person could <br />be taken to a health facility, i.e., the 24 hour <br />Emergency Care Facility, without making an <br />appointment 24 hours in advance. <br />3 <br />
