• • <br />!~ <br />CITIZEN - You mean if a builder wants to build and sell 20 houses for profit <br />and a businessman wants to build an office or warehouse to serve his <br />business, they are treated dust like I am if I want to build one house to live in? <br />CITY - Yes, that is right, we are consistant in treating everyone the same. <br />CITIZEN - Well ~attitudetbistheecity mI caneseen no concern'foratheiindividual <br />build it or not Y <br />'at all. <br />CITY - Oh, we are concerned, we don't want you to think we are not, but we <br />must treat everybody the same. <br />CITIZEN - Are you concerned enough to pay any of the cost? <br />CITY - No. <br />CITIZEN - I see I'm not making any headway with my pleading, but I do want <br />to say this - When a city states that it has no financial responsibility, <br />whatsoever, to a person wanting to build a house to live in only 90 ft. from <br />an existing sewer, then there is something wrong. <br />You are making these people build the line like you want it, pay for it, <br />give it to you, then pay you to use it, along with their taxes. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. <br />Why do you insist on viewing residential and commercial as equal? The <br />Telephone Co, makes a distinction between commercial and residential, as do <br />many other businesses including the Gas Co., Light Co., Insurance Companies, <br />Banks, and your Water Co. IT JUST DOES NOT SEEM FAIR. <br />Since you must submit our utility extension agreement to Council for <br />consideration, I thought it only fair that they be made aware of these <br />comments too. <br />Respectfully, <br />S. D. Pilkinton <br /> <br />,, <br />• <br />
