    1. T. Peters attended the last FWWPCC and said Fontana still did not comment on his request. The commission did ask T. Peters if the seasonal south shore residents in the planning area would be ok with a minimum monthly billing amount. The commissioners said they would need a minimum billing to cover expenses of running their facility year around. Ted said they discussed the costs of us coming into the treatment plant. He asked if the commission would entertain the idea of Linn Sanitary District simply paying for the treatment of the waste instead of buying into the whole plant, which would include a percentage of their capital costs. Anwser pending.
