The <br /> concern was that these citizens were told by the City Council that <br /> the charges had been frozen for a period of four years. He <br /> reported that he had researched the minutes and transcripts of the <br /> tape recordings and found that no such promise had been made, <br /> however he could understand that there might have been a <br /> perception among those attending these meetings that this might <br /> have been construed. Mr. Simpson reported that his research had <br /> found the same thing. Mr. Tralle reported that his recollection <br /> of the meetings were that no promise had been made to freeze the <br /> connection fees for a period of four years. However, Mr. Tralle <br /> said that he could see where some confusion may have come from <br /> some of the action taken. <br /> Motion by Mr. Tralle, seconded by Mr. Simpson, that the Water <br /> Connection Fee for the Citizens of the Westwood assessed for the <br /> water and sewer project completed in 1992 be frozen at $300. 00 <br /> until October 1, 1996 . The motion carried unanimously. <br /> 4) Motion by Mr. Simpson, seconded by Mr. Tralle to adjourn. The <br /> motion carried.
