Council discussed the issuance of an occupancy permit before a hardtop surface is placed on Keithson. Raddatz stated there is 2 ft. of sand under the road and with the gravel there may not be problems (potholes, etc.) Sather questioned that the road would be under Village jurisdiction as it is being constructed by the developer. Council requested, the Clerk Administrator review past policy on the issuance of occupancy permits prior to hardtop surfaces in residential areas. WATER TOWER - There are six sections of the water tower now in place. The bowl section will be welded after two inspections have been made. The inspections are done by two different persons, with an x-ray machine. The condensation ceiling is also being installed. The tower will be 141 ft. to the 1,000,000 gallon mark; 150 ft. .to the top. When the tower is completed, the Village will landscape and plant tress around the base; evergreens, hardwoods and sod. The project, thus far, is on schedule. Councilmember Winiecki asked if the landscaping removed from the Lift Station #10 could be replanted at the water tower. Raddatz advised personnel has moved some plantings and will continue as both projects progress. ' MUD JACKING. CURBS - The mud jacking is completed. The work will be checked in the fall to determine if it has stayed in place. .

(5-0) LIC & PERMIT FEES Council was referred to Finance Committee minutes of April 23rd, relative to the subcommittee recommendations for increasing license and permit fees. The Committee had recommended that the fees be reviewed every two years. A survey of five surrounding communities was completed, in an effort to maintain equity, and also the Committee determined the fees should more closely reflect the costs of regulation and administration of the licenses and permits. . Councilmember Winiecki suggested the permit fee for the rendering plant be increased from $600 to $630, to cover the cost of inspection of the plant. Mayor Woodburn noted that the General Contractors, Excavators, Plumbing and Contractors license fees would require an Ordinarice amendment; suggested the Attorney be requested to draft the amendment.
