Lilydale council schedules proposal on non-metered utility rates for April meeting
Summary
Mayor Lyle Hanzal said he and City Administrator Mary Tollefson met with Shannon Sweeney about non-metered properties and that a proposal will be prepared for the council's April meeting to address utility rates for those properties.
Mayor Lyle Hanzal told the Lilydale City Council on March 10 that he and City Administrator Mary Tollefson recently met with Shannon Sweeney to discuss how the city treats non-metered properties for utility billing and that a formal proposal will be ready for the council's April meeting.
The proposal, Hanzal said, will address non-metered properties and potential changes to utility rate application; no specific changes, rates or dollar amounts were provided at the meeting. The announcement followed the council's approval of the evening's agenda and consent items.
City Administrator Mary Tollefson confirmed the meeting with Sweeney but did not provide further details about options under consideration or the timeline beyond the April meeting target. The council did not take action on the matter at this session; Hanzal presented the item as an upcoming agenda matter to be developed for further consideration.
The council's next step is for staff to present the written proposal at the April meeting, where councilmembers will have an opportunity to discuss possible rate adjustments or policy changes. The meeting record does not specify whether any external approvals or public hearings will be required for the changes.
