CITIZEN PARTICIPATION

Richard Maloney asked Council why the PPC on the utility bills was the same as the previous month and was told by the Mayor he was unable to get the info to John Courtney in time for him to figure the PPC and it is not uncommon to carry the same figure over from the previous month. Maloney stated the formula is in the ordinance and there are only four figures to use, stating it would have only taken ten minutes to figure. The Mayor took responsibility for it.
