6/15/82 Page -14- Jouncilman Leary: Councilman Leary moved that all persons getting beer permits, wanting to drink still have to get a permit, no matter what the size of the group; secondly any other group wanting to reserve parks obtain a permit and all people pay a $20.00 deposit, refundable if the park is found in clean manner when you get done. That way the budget is off-set, the problem August is having and people will get their money back. Director Hioco: Director Hioco requested that the item be tabled for a future study session. REBATES TO THE ELDERLY ON WATER RATES: Wurl reported that the City Attorney is researching this. Curt reported it was his understanding this was just for the elderly, he didn't think that was approp- riate; because Case Law says there is a case involving Public Service that struck down lower rates just for elderly. Present- ly we rebate property taxes to the elderly. It was his thought that the City do some- thing similiar to what Public Service does for low-income and the elderly such as budget billing. Rautenstraus wished to do more research. Wurl commented perhaps one of the easiest things to deal with in terms of publicity would be a simple change in the present 100% rebate of the City ad valorem tax. Secondly we have the procedure already designed and functioning that accomplishes that. Councilman Leary: Councilman Leary remarked that if this is done he would like to research some income level, as he did not think that it appro- . priate to grant it to people who has sub- stantial income. Councilman Fauson: Councilman Fauson moved, Councilman Ferrera seconded that the City Administrator report be accepted and placed on file. Question called for - all in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
