l-l.rs. Helen Kiep said she felt the Trailer Courts are being
discriminated against. S11e said the ordinance is raising
Garbage Rates for residents 50% and raising Trailer Courts ScO%
just because the city bought a truck and are charging us in
one year for it. It should go over a period of years.
Councilrran Seng said that every trailer thatis occupied has a
farr~ly, same as a residence.
L:rs. Kiep said that trailers bring business to the city. She
said it takes five minutes to pick up garbage and she said the
trash truck has never been to her Trailer ~ourt.
Councilman Seng asked if she absolved the price '~1en the water
lines were put in or did she charge the trailer o'vners.
l.irs. Kiep said she certainly did absolve it herself. She said
the CounciJ wasn't being fair. She said the Ordinance would have
been passed. last vleek except or.e Councillran ''las up for election
the next day. She says that she pays for a license here and
there was no reason for the increase.

then ~5,000 in the red last year but would have wade a profit of
about ,;400 except for the plrchase of a net-T garbage truck. He

there should be a cushion of about ~~1,500 per year to provide for
