alanced for the next five years and should be between 65.4%
ith Minneapolis would have to be reviewed every year.
Harder stated that the Joint Water Commission could request a yearly copy of the
Operating and Maintenance cost along with a copy of the depreciation schedule from the
City of Minneapolis
Clancy biggest concern was the timelessness of the rates and her inability to plan her
budget.
Harder mentioned that the rates were slow coming this year because of the JWC request
for additional information and the rates were going to be set for the next five years.
Viring stated that JMC would be approving the 2009 budget in November due to the
lateness of estimated rates from Minneapolis.
Harder stated he would provide copies of the JWC rates report to the commissioners.
Harder spoke briefly about the advisory'board that he and Mayor Loomis sat on and that
they would be sharing their findings with the Golden Valley Coun October 14, 2008.
