A
resident who lives with her family in a Mobile Home Park asked the King City City Council at their regular meeting on Tuesday night, March 13 why
her garbage bill has gone up by as much as $80 in 1 month and was wondering
if the Council could help her resolve this issue? City Manager Steven Adams
said that the billing that she is referring to is coming from the Mobile Home
Park and that Waste Management has been reaching out to the management people at the park to schedule a meeting to discuss with them ways about lowering garbage costs. Adams
went on to say that he’ll be researching this issue further to find out if the city
has the authority at all or not to enforce something like this if people are being
improperly charged. Adams
also stated that there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony for a new King City
welcome sign on Friday, March 23 at 12 pm. In other business the Council
approved a recommendation to appropriate $15,000 for expenses associated with
the purchase and installation of a new heater for the race pool, while Dave
Baldwin Director of Energy Management for ENGIE Services provided an update
regarding how the King City Solar project is coming along which consists of
installing solar panels at the wastewater treatment plant and the city pools
along with putting in street lights downtown. Baldwin said that everything has been
going very well within the last 5 months and that production is at 124%. Baldwin also indicated that behind the scenes he and his crew are monitoring what's going on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and that they have also been assisting with operations and maintenance work. The Council also discussed for over 30 minutes about if they should move forward at all or not regarding whether to prepare an amendment to the current commercial cannabis ordinance, authorizing permits for Type 10 cannabis license activities restricted to non-storefront retail sales. The Council agreed to have staff research and gather more information on this issue.
