$1.88 tax rate, explaining that the Council Members had not taken into
consideration the Homeowners' and. Veterans' Exemptions. The tax rate reduction
to $1,84 per $1OO of assessed valuation would decrease the City's operating
budget by approximately $13,.000.
Much discussion followed, with Councilman Millis contending that to set
the tax rate at $1,BB at this time would be raising it and the City should be
able to cut back in various areas of its operations and absorb the $13,OO0.deficit.
Numerous persons in the audience voiced similar feelings.. After Council discus-
sion,. a motion was made. by Councilman Gallagher, seconded by Councilman Millis
and on the following roll call vote, to wit: AYES: Councilmen Gallagher and
Millis; NOES: Councilmen Spierling, Schlegel and Mayor de Leon; ABSENT: None,
the motion failed to sustain the action taken by the Council on August 23, 1977
to establish the tax rate at $1.84.
More public and Council discussion, testimony and debate followed.
Thereafter, Administrator Butch read a resolution, in full, to rescind
Resolution No. 1296, which set the tax rate at $1.84.
RESOLUTION NO. 1297
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF'THE CITY OE ARROYO
GRANDE RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 1296 REGARDING THE

the following roll call vote, to wit:
AYES.: Councilmen Spierling, Schlegel and Mayor de Leon
NOES: Councilmen Gallagher and Millis
ABSENT: None
the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted this. 25th day of August, 1977.
A motion was then made by Councilman Gallagher, seconded by Councilman
Millis and on the following roll call vote, to. wit: AYES: Councilmen Gallagher
and Millis; NOES: Councilmen Spierling, Schlegel and Mayor deLeon; ABSENT:-
None, the motion failed to adopt the tax rate at $1.84 per $100 of assessed
valuation. Councilman Gallagher then made a motion to set the tax rate at
$1.85, which motion died for lack of a second.
Administrator Butch made more calculations, stated that with a.$1.84 tax
rate the City"will have approximately $12,000 less than it had planned on in
the. adopted budget, but that the City could live with it, but would have to
tighten operations.' Various programs ,and projects were brought up which may in
fact increase City costs from what is projected in the .budget and the Council
generally agreed that citizens will have to understand that with a five cent
tax reduction, everything they ask for in the way of services not budgeted will
not be forthcoming readily.
After further Council discussion, Administrator Butch read the title of a
resolution setting.. the tax rate at $1.85. No vote was taken as Council discussion
continued, with Councilman Gallagher stating the amount was_so close, that the
$1.84 rake should be sustained. The Council appeared in general agreement that
the tax rate be set as follows: $1.59 for General Government. Operations; $0.19
for Employee Retirement; and $O.D6 for Recreation, for a total tax rate of $1.84
upon each $100 of assessed valuation of taxable property. The foregoing was then
adopted by the following resolution:

OF STUDY
HEARING RE. RATE HIKE FOR COMMERCIAL USERS: y/~s/;;,
The Council reviewed a letter from City Administrator Dowdy of Grover
City, summarizing the recommendations of the study committee formed of
representatives from the three South County cities to study the proposed rate
increase by South County Sanitary Service. Their recommendations were as
follows: incorporate the proposed commercial rate increase by September 1st;
that the Cities of Arroyo Grande and Pismo Beach develop a system similar to
that of Grover City's regarding mandated rubbish collection, whereby residential
accounts will be collected on the cities' water bills .(the increase in customers,
it was felt, would generate enough funds for the Service to keep residential
rates at present prices); and adopt a blue bag. system at $1.00 per bag (to be
picked up by eligible persons from the Sanitary Service) for people with limited
garbage and not able to afford full service.' Administrator Butch stated that
the residential billing could be put on the City's water billings effective
October 1, 1877 and the commercial would continue being billed by the Sanitary
Service. The Council and citizens present discussed the recommendations.
Elizabeth Jackson stated her objections to water being turned off if a garbage
bill is not paid; Councilman Millis felt some force of law needs to be given the
"blue, bag" program; Doris Olsen asked"whether use cf the blue bag was at the
discretion of the Sanitation Service, which was answered in the affirmative and
it was clarified that an appeal route is available to the Council. The Council
asked the City Attorney to check into enforcement measures for the blue bag
.program. After Council discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Gallagher,
seconded by Councilman Schlegel and unanimously carried, approving the recom-
mendations of the study committee as set forth above, except for the commercial
rates.
In answer to Councilman Millis' questions, Administrator Butch stated
that the program, as just adopted, would be reviewed in January, 1978, and the
Council may at that time go to bid for a garbage pick-up service if it wishes.
Councilman Gallagher suggested, and the Council agreed, to hold a public
hearing on the commercial pick-up rates, to give the business people an
opportunity to comment on this, A public hearing was then set on the matter for
September 13, 1977 at 6:00 P.M. in regard to public notices, Councilman Millis
requested that the local newspaper try to publish all Public Notices on one
page of the newspaper.

are full time missionaries who usually go to commercial areas-asking for dona-
tions and give a, flower, candy, etc. in return. Funds collected are for travel
expenses of the missionaries and other programs of the church. She further
