A phase-in billing system which will be periodically increased, including a license fee for the haulers, which will be reviewed at the end of the licensing year will be established through an ordinance . This will allow the businesses time as their contracts expire with the current haulers to shop around to see what the free market enterprise does as far as pricing goes . This will also give the Village time to notify all the businesses through the business letter and for them to contact the Village with the names of all of the haulers doing business in the industrial park and commercial area. The Village will pick up some of the cost to begin with so not all of the cost will be passed on to the haulers . It is felt that this is a fair way to implement the payment of the involved cost . Motion to prepare an ordinance authorizing a $2 , 500 license fee and a $5 . 00 per unit fee for the balance of licensing year 1997; $5 . 00 for license year 1998 ; and $7 . 50 for license year 1999 and ultimately $10 . 50 for the year 2000 with a caveat that at the end of this license year the Village will go to the graduated fee structure . 4 1-14-97 MOVED: Trustee Johnson SECONDED: Trustee Czarnik VOICE VOTE MOTION CARRIED 12 .
