Discuss / Approve Large Water Leak @ 1638 Pakk Lane: The water bill for this address was $571.00.  Resident was asking for ½ forgiveness.  Leak was in residents’ yard, so Council Member James Kelly wanted to make sure the city is required to pay ½. At this time, we have tabled this until the city can further investigate.
