The new agenda format should be available for the July 2012 meeting. d. POTENTIAL RATE STUDY At the request of Chairperson Ross, a proposal for a rate study has been developed to determine our operation and maintenance rate compared to other municipalities. The estimated cost of the study is $20,140. If the Board elects to go forward, the study would have to take place after October 1, 2012 as no money has been appropriated in this fiscal year's budget.
