Whereas, certain residential telephone ratepayers, who reside in the
City of Saint Paul, have petitioned the 5aint Paul City Council to permit
their joinder with the City on the question of the constitutionality of
the issue of differential tiers of rate pricing for residential telephone
rates, which question is involved in the Northwestern Bell Telephone rate
case, P-421/GR-81-911, and in earlier cases; and
Whereas, the issues of the propriety of the tiers will be presented
in an appeal to Ramsey County District Court from Final Orders of the
Minnesota Public Utilities Commission, or, if necessary, by collateral
civil action; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, that the City Council accepts the request of the Petitioners,
and directs its Counsel Thomas J. Stearns to incorporate the individual
party plaintiffs or party appellants into the appeal or action undertaken
by said Counsel on its behalf, with no cost to the individual Petitioners.
