Resolution Increasing Weed Howing Rates (memos and resolutions distributed to Council) Manager reported to Council the charge for mowing had not been in- creased for several years, but this year the City was confronted with a substantial increase in contract fees.

He said the proposed rate is a result of requests for bids, and the resulting compromise is $24.90 for mowing, plus administrative costs of the Public Works and Finance departments amounting to $11.68 per hour. Don Allen, Public Works Director, noted one problem would be the sur- prise of 500-600 people in the area when the bills for mowing are re- ceived.
