Summary

Ordinance No. 26-710, which would add bulk sewer rates and a required dumping log to the municipal code, was tabled after trustees learned comparative rate data used earlier was incorrect; the item will return in June 2026.

President Bruce Dowdy told trustees that the board had incorrect information when comparing bulk sewer rates with other municipalities. Because of the discrepancy, the board tabled Ordinance No. 26-710 (proposed additions to Chapter 10 Utilities regarding bulk sewer rates and a dumping-log requirement) until the June 2026 meeting to allow staff to obtain corrected comparisons.

The motion to table was recorded in the minutes; no vote tally beyond 'tabled' is specified though the minutes state the item was postponed to the June meeting. Trustees did not adopt the ordinance at this meeting and requested additional data before taking further action.
