Council Minutes of 6/4/96 ~,. AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION ,,; Dennis Lambert, 25057 Carey Lane, spoke about a proposal that was made in 1992 to the Northeastern Ohio Regional Sewer District. The proposal called for summer residential sprinkling charges, which would have the effect of lowering sewer rates for summer uses such as sprinkling or washing cars. The premise behind the proposal is that outdoor water usage does not empty into the sanitary sewer, thus treatment plants do not incur any operating or treatment costs. Mr. Lambert asked Council to take this proposal into committee for consideration. He is aware that residents do have the option of installing a second meter, but he does not feel that the majority of people are willing to take on this expense. As Chairperson of the Long-Range Planning Committee, Mr. O'Grady said it was an interesting proposal and he looked forward to learning more about it.
