2. DISCUSSION ON 1996 ENTERPRISE FUND BUDGETS
Finance Director Rolek indicated the budget had been prepared
without any increase in sewer or water rates for 1996. He
indicated it was a policy matter if the City Council would
like the fees to reflect the depreciation factor.
Councilmembers discussed the options. There was Council
consensus to not increase the base rate for water charges but
to explore the possibility of structuring a rate dependent on
amount of usage.
Rolek indicated staff was not recommending an increase in the
sanitary sewer rates. Hurm explained there was a capital
outlay expense in this year's budget for a new utility line
locator and new sewer jetter. There was Council consensus to
maintain the sanitary sewer rates at their present level.
Rolek indicated the County is no longer funding the full cost
of recycling in the City of Shorewood. He indicated the
revenue received by the City for the recyclables will not
cover the cost of the recycling program. There was Council
consensus to establish the recycling charge per household by
$1.00 per month.
Hurm explained the Stormwater Management Utility Fund was
doing well in terms of set-asides. Rolek explained this
issue will be discussed further along with the subject of
Capital Improvement Projects.
Rolek reported the Tonka Bay Liquor Store and the Shorewood
II Liquor Store (the Shorewood Shopping Center Store) were
making a profit. The new store, Shorewood I, is estimated to
loose $44,000.00 this year. Rolek reported sales have not
been as the City had anticipated due to the store being

closed for a year and that people don't really know the store
is there. Rolek stated there will be a profit between the
three stores. Councilmembers discussed the options. There
was Council consensus to have the Liquor Committee come to
the City Council with a definite business plan for all three
stores.
