Councilmember Wolff inquired of the continued construction of Magnolia Street from Veterans Drive to McLean. City Manager Wicker informed that we have been in contact with Billy Joe Plaster, County Commissioner, who is anticipating doing most of the work. We have had the property staked according to the deeds that we have received and are in the process of clearing the right-of-way. We plan to stake the sub -grade of the road; establish ditches; lime stabilize the soil down about six inches; then put the purchased base material in place, compact It; and then, under the repaving program, have. the County put 1-1/2" hot mix on top. City Manager Wicker continued by stating that, hopefully, this week we will be able to clear all the right-of-way.

Councilmember Wolff inquired of the status of the right-of-way for the Hike & Bike Trail across the school property just south of City Hall. City Manager Wicker informed that Ms. Jackson has agreed to dedicate the right-of-way. We have not as yet prepared a right-of-way dedication, but could proceed with this if Council wishes.

He informed that we have received a letter from Bert and Frances Jamison giving permission to cross their property if we would drop all litigation against them, but they didn't feel it would be in their best interest or necessary to convey any right-of-way easement. (Letter from Bert and Frances Jamison on file in the office of the City Secretary.)

I'1�: • / � ' i • • '1.?.`'• � 1 �I' 11 11 1+ '!'�. 1;' ,'�: N II • . � '1�1' �l City Manager Wicker advised that the last State Legislative Session approved a surcharge for depositing garbage at a landfill to be added on to whatever rate the City pays to a contractor. This amounts to 17-112V per compacted yard and 10¢ per loose yard of material that is deposited, which includes what our garbage trucks haul, limbs and any other special trash that we pick up. We are not sure just what impact this will have, but we feel the proposed $1.00 increase in residential rates and 0.250 per month, per cubic yard, in the commercial rates will suffice. In Council discussion, Councilmember Wolff stated that the Garbage Department was put under, the Enterprise Department for the first time last year, and in checking the records, it seems we have accrued money above actual cost of service, which could possibly cover the cost of the State surcharge. It was moved by Councilmember Wolff, seconded by Councilmember Smith, that Resolution No. R89-29 be set aside until after the presentation of the City Audit by the auditors. Motion passed 4 to 0.

Subsequently, we received a letter requesting $8,400 as our pro rata share. Upon questioning T.M.L. regarding this request, we were asked not to drop out of the participation but that we also wouldn't have to pay the $8,400. If, however, the case goes longer than the 90 days, then they will send us a resolution asking us to approve a denial of the hearing of the rate increase and 45 that they would submit the $8,400 as part of the settlement with Texas -New Mexico Power C o . It was suggested that since we only have six customers affected by the rate increase, that we send them the 42¢ times six, for a total of $2.52, as our pro rata share. It was moved by Councilmember Smith, seconded by Councilmember Wolff, that we remain participating in the Texas -New Mexico Power Company rate increase, with the T.M.L., and send them the just amount due which is the six customers times 420. ,_.
