City Council Hearings Report Road to Savings at Venice Airport
City official Dale Rieth detailed cost estimates for installing individual water shutoffs at 186 mobile homes costing about 135 dollars per unit and 25 000 dollars total. An automatic landing light system at Venice Airport saves about 200 dollars monthly after three weeks of operation. Rieth discussed MICA proposals to shift solid waste to private firms, with a 90 percent payout of savings but a 25 000 dollar yearly cap, and a comm ittee's finding to keep city collection. A fuel conservation program using a state-tested additive was implemented.
