Pursuant to our phone conversation today, I have taken the following
actions:
1. I have started using the new lower sewer rate per Umbaugh's
February 3, 1986 letter. This starts with their January, 1986 bill.
2. Attached to the January bill is a credit for the months since the
lower rates went into effect for the rest of the City; specifically
September, October, November and December, 1985.
3. The above two actions will bring the Hamilton Western bill up to
date with the lower sewer rate immediately, and all at once.
I have attached a copy of the January sewer bill and the four month's
credit for your information and files.
I have alsoattached a copy of Umbaugh's February 3, 1986 letter.

Re: Carmel (Indiana) Municipal Sewage Works -
Hamilton -Western Billing
Dear Jim:
As we discussed last week, we are enclosing a copy of a revised
schedule of Hamilton -Western billing rate. This revises the
original August 26, 1985 schedule which was prepared for the
council meeting at which the new city rates were adopted. The
original proposed rate for Hamilton -Western was $644.55 per million
gallons. It appears it should actually be $648.07: We would
suggest that after discussions with Steve Andrews that the revised
rate be put in place.
We are also sending copies of this letter to, Mr. Andrews, Mr.
Silvey, Mayor Reiman for their information. Please let me know if.
anything else would be helpful at this time.
Very truly yours,
