Since the time this Bill was filed on August 23,2017,a few minor matters were identified that should be and have been changed within the Substitute version of Bill No. 53-17,attached. The Statement of Purpose and Intent has been slightly revised. The other changes have been highlighted in yellow for your convenience, and they include two clarifications, one regarding the discount for persons age 65 and over, and one regarding the duration of a disability. The word "pick up" has been changed throughout to include a hyphen,i.e., "pick-up."Two other changes were made to correct what was and was not part of the original text. For simplification,the old rate chart has been stricken,and replaced with a new chart although no change has been made to the dollar figures in the originally filed ordinance. Other than these few items,Bill No. 53-17 is substantially the same as originally filed. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Aladean M.DeRose,City Attorney ELLIOT A.ANDERSON DANIELLE K.
