02-16-1982 Regular MeetingContinued - February 15, 1982 Jim Tolleson stated we have never charged late charge or interest for the first 30 days after tax bills become delinquent. After the 30-day period, we charge 12% interest and a fi fa charge of $2.00, which no longer covers the cost. Jim made a motion we start charging 12% on the first day of delinquency and a $4.00 fee for fi fa's under $100 and $6.00 for anything over $100. Max Bacon seconded '\ the motion which carried 7-0. Max Bacon said the Parks Committee and Parks and Recreation Commission have been discussing the possibility of surplusing the Lake Court Park property. This park consists of approximately 10.4 acres, located on Lake Drive. Max said the tennis courts are in bad shape and it is the least -used park in the City, with the highest rate of vandalism. Max said he would like to surplus the property and apply the funds toward the renovation of Jonquil Pool and possibly the development of North Smyrna Park. Attorney Camp said the proper procedure would be to approve a motion the property be surplused and establish a time limit for acceptance of bids. Also, there would be no limitation on the time limit for accepting bids. Mr. Camp recommended that if bids,are requested the advertisement should state that the City has the right to accept or reject any or all bids; the property does not have to be sold to the highest bidder. Funds from the sale would go to the General Fund and could not be designated for any one purpose. Jack Shinall said that quite a few years ago, Mayor J. M. Gibson signed a contract with L&N Railroad stating that if they widened the railroad bed the City would _ relocate the sewer lines, at our expense. They are now requesting that the City relocate a sewer line near Campbell High School. Attorney Camp said there was t some question in his mind as to whether or not the contract would be binding. Jim David said he had received three estimates on relocating this line, with the lowest being $8700. Jack Shinall made a motion that Mr. Camp begin negotiations with L&N Railroad immediately to bring to their attention that the contract is, possibly, not binding and if it is found to be binding that $8700 be approved to relocate the sewer line, with the stipulation that at no time in the future will the City be required to pay for any movement of sewer, water lines, or anything else owned by the City. This expense to be charged to EEC Fund. Jim Hawkins seconded the motion which carried by a 7-0 vote. Sarah Jones made a motion the stop sign at Oak Knoll Court be removed and replaced with a yield s.ign. Jim.Tolleson seconded the motion which carried 7-0. There were no commercial building permits to bring before council. Committee Reports: Elbert Coalson asked Jim David when the pavement would be smoothed on Cherokee Road at South Cobb Drive.

' (Water & Sanitation) Jack Shinall said that Vic Broyles was studying the sanitation department and he hoped to have some recommendations shortly.
