RESOLUTION DESIGNATING THE USE OF

UTILITY USERS TAX REVENUES

Recommendation:

That the City Council adopt the attached resolution designating the use of the Utility Users Tax revenue.

Background:

Councilmember Reviczky, at the meeting of August 10, 1999, requested that the City Council consider adopting a resolution designating the use of the revenues from the Utility Users Tax. As you know, the Utility Users Tax revenue has been used for sewer maintenance and renovation, public safety and capital projects. This resolution clearly shows the City Council's intent to use these revenues for these purposes in the future.
