INITIATINO PROBLEM,ISSUE,OPPORTUNITV(Who,What,When,Where,Why):
Letter from Metropolitan Waste Control Commission informing government agencies of new
SAC charge from $650.00 to $700.00 for 1992. The full SAC is paid by the builder or
property owner. Therefore, passing the increased charge to them would not be a change
in the City's policy.
(Letter from MWCC attached)
ADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
The increase in SAC Unit Charges for the new year is not a new procedure and should be
expected by the builder or property owner. However, if the City of Saint Paul paid the
increase, it would cost the City $19,000 if the same number of SAC Charges are made as
in 1991.
DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
Increase of $50.00 to property owner or builder from rate in previous year.
