Discussion Re: Report of CARD Concernins Fairg~ounds Mrs. Anna Martinsen, 1890 Brooktree Court, urged Council to review the Agreement with the Fairgrounds to see if some fee could be charged for sewer service. She contended the Agreement was out-of-date and that Pleasanton is losing large sums of revenue which it is fairly entitled to. Mr. Francis Headley, 1640 Orchard Way, read City Council Minutes of 1958 in which the Fairground Agreement was authorized. He stated he felt that sewerage treatment fees should be charged to the Fairgrounds. Mr. Oliver Anjo, 2403 Raven Road, stated that CARD was in no way trying to embarrass the Council but were attempting to assist the City in a complete all- encompassing study of various topics, of which the Fairgrounds sewer service charge issue was only a small area. He stated he felt the City should try to get some relief from the Fairgrounds for sewer service charges even if it had to be pursued to the Courts. Councilmember Herlihy stated that the Fair Liaison Committee members had tried for years to re-negotiate the Agreement with the Fairgrounds with no success. He stated that since the City Attorney had advised the Agreement was legal and binding that the matter should not be pursued further. Council- member LeClaire concurred. 5. 6/13/77
