INITIATING PROBLEM,ISSUE,OPPORTUNITY(Who,Whet,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 is attached)
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED:
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 $19,000.00 in 1992 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 pr�e'irio ear.
