City Defers Remote Area Water Rate Plan Action
The Tucson City Council delayed a decision on proposed water rates for remote areas outside city limits on the far north and northeast. About 300 customers in Skyline, Be Aire, Coronado Foothills and near Orange Grove Road would be affected by a proposed minimum of 7.50 for 5 000 gallons and 0.50 per additional 1 000. Current minimum is 5 for 5 000 gallons with 38 cents per extra 1 000. Mayor James N Corbett Jr questioned the size of the remote rate and asked officials to restudy and report next week. The council also approved Dean Sidney Littie of the University of Arizona College of Architecture as design coordinator for the Urban Renewal Project, with services not to exceed 6 000 dollars and funded from the renewal budget.
