PARE CONTRACT &.SEED WAT " STA1` D -BY " a�RY10E TO OUTSIDE WINERIES S1T- r:R =A BERM, C0LLECTICST SERVICE CCL?I.lu:T DISCCIITESEXY STREET MPLOYEES City Langer Weller called attention of the Council to the Institute for City Councilmen to be held in Berkeley on Friday, June 9th under the auspices of the League of California Cities, reading the program for the one day session. Four members of the City Council expressed their intentions to attend. On recommendation of the City Tanager, it was moved by Council- man Bull, Rinn second, that the 6th paragraph of the contract between City of Lodi and Lodi Union High School District end Associated Students for use of Lawrence Park Baseball Park, be emended to the effect that the $20.00 minimum charge be elimin- ated and the charge for electricity, substituting therefore a flat rate of $2.50 per day game and $7.50 for night games, plus the 5d head tax. The City Langer was instructed to investigate the rates charged all users of this Park for base- ball games and ascertain if the same are equitable. Lr Weller and Layor Tolliver reported that a meeting had been held with officers of several wineries interested in obtaining " stand-by " water service for fire protection and that the conferees had arrived at a flat rate charge of $250.00 per year for this type of service. Lr Weller suggested that, if the Board of Fire Underwriters of the Pacific should ever demand that the City increase its water supply sources by reason of these stand-by connections, the connected wineries could use ttieir pumping facilities to augment city water supply. Council-wn Haskell proposed that, in the event that the Board of Fire.Underwriters required additional water supply, the contract with each winery contain a clause *+Aging it void in such event. Councilman Preszler moved that the City accept the $250.00 rate but received no second; Councilman Rinn moved that the difference between the present $500.00 rate and the proposed rate be split and that the charge be $375.00; this latter motion died from lack of second. On motion of Councilman Haskell, Bull second, the matter was tabled until the June 7th meeting to give the City Tanager opportunity to (1) investigate similar charges made by other municipal water supply departments, (2), to communicate with the Board of Fire Underwriters as to the attitude of that Board toward such proposed auxiliary service. City Langer Weller re-orted that Sanitary City Scavenger Co. would pickup additional containers containing refuse, such as lawn clippings and tree prunings, placed along side the ordinary garbage container, at a monthly rate of 40¢ for each thirty gallons, such service to be ordered on and off by the householder at the ccencement of the lawn cutting season and at its conclusion. lir Weller stated that he contemplated giving notice of the availability of this service to each householder by letter. Several advocates of curb -side pick up of these materials addressed the Council. It was moved by Councilman Ginn, Haskell second, that this rate be public- ised as effective June 1st and that the enforcement of the ordinance prohibiting dumping rubbish in gutters be continued as a means of keeping the City clean and avoiding blocking stoma drains and catch basins. In connection with the foregoing, Councilman Bull mentioned that on several occasions, city employees has been extremely discourteous in warning householders against depositing refuse ratter in the gutters. The City ;:anger offered to take up' these complaints at once and see that no further instances of offensive conduct occurred. 441 :stes of ',ay 17,1950 - con' i_nued COUI-rL CHA.MB R3 CITY COU.`ICIL CITY 4ALL -CITY 0; LODI In the .:.atter of Streets: Bids ogered before the City tanager on Lay 15,1950 were reported by the City Manager as follocis: 1526 A.
