Director Steinfeld stated that "recognizing that we are no longer the City Council, and recognizing that we are looking at probably $4,300 or $4,400, in hook-up and connection fees that we need to be concerned at a later date, I'm going to make a motion that we accept the Agency's recommendation to a maximum of $30,000, to include your wording, ttom the Redevelopment Agency, but to further recommend that we get together as a Council to discuss whether or not we would like the Sewer and Water Fund to cover the $4,300 connection charge." MIS: STEINFELD/SANFILIPO TO APPROVE THE MOTION AS STATED Redevelopment Agency Attorney Schricker stated there was a problem of City jurisdiction and this matter was not submitted for legal review; and, there were some serious ramifications in forgiving payments out of utilities funds, as those funds come under strict accountability as enterprise funds.
