Mr. Blackman , Jr. assured me that he could speak for <br /> his father and the company in negotiating the agreement with the City. <br /> 1 I feel that significant progress has been made in these discussions and <br /> wish to keep the Council informed prior to your meeting next Monday, <br /> January 26, to consider this matter again at 5 p.m. Enclosed is a copy <br /> of our staff report dated January 16 with my notations regarding the <br /> Council ' s vote on each of our 10 recommendations , and in the following <br /> report concerning my discussions with Mr. Blackman, I am referring to <br /> these recommendations by their number as shown on the staff report of <br /> January 16. <br /> 1. OK - Mr. Blackman is not opposing this recommendation and cautions <br /> that he does not feel that any legal revision of our current agree- <br /> ment should delay the proposed agreement and wants assurance that <br /> there will be no substantive changes. <br /> 2. OK - Mr. Blackman is in agreement. <br /> 3 . Mr. Blackman stated that his major equity problem is with small <br /> commercial units who have only one water meter. His countersuggestion <br /> was that we utilize electrical meters, but he also stated that this <br /> item was not that important to him and that he felt it could be nego- <br /> tiated with the City staff , Both of us• were in agreement to drop the <br /> proposed population as a basis. I concur with this suggestion because <br /> of some of the problems that Mr. Brandt pointed out in estimating the <br /> additional population which would live in multiple family dwellings <br /> that utilized bin rates. <br /> 4. OK - This is satisfactory with Mr. Blackman. <br /> 5. OK -- This is what Mr. Blackman suggested, but he also wishes to re- <br /> quest that the annual CPI adjustment be made as current as possible <br />
