City Council Maps Utility Rates Fight With Cornelius
Cornelius stated state law limits city councils to regulating utility rates within city limits. Mayor Gordon Donop and City Manager George Rogers, in Fredericksburg, discussed the proposed rate increase with accountants Basser and Davidson and with the IRS in Austin, who advised local handling. The council deemed the increase inflationary and declined it, while negotiating for a possible revival. Leon Neely of Lone Star Gas sought a 10 percent rise, supported by the council as cost justified, projecting about 60 cents more monthly for residential use. A tax equalization board was formed with Mae Hutto, Marvin Elliott, and Matt Dees Sr., replacing Howard Lange. Walter and Mrs. Walter Decker of San Antonio visited for Mother's Day.
