The City Attorney stated they were trying to get an agreement from the Water District to serve him for the City at city rates; that the Legal Department had checked the telephone rate for him, and he was entitled to a lower rate; that the City Manager had checked on the tax value and found that the property was on the tax roll for an amount much less than what was paid for it, and the value had been reduced due to his location. It was stated when the water rates and phone rates, etc., were straightened out, he would be better off.

CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 111 The City Manager gave a report on the distribution system in Bergstrom Village; that effective February 1, 1958, the Government acquired the housing and the utilities will be paid by the government now. The officials had inquired about the City's reading a single meter. The City Manager quoted a "D" rate plus a charge of $620.00 a month for services and rentals, and would not include any changes in the system; that the $620.00 was for the existing system. The government wanted to aircondition the units and change the size of the transformers. He stated the meters were read on January 31st, and the Government took over, according to their letter, on February 1, 1958; but the City still had the problem of the changes to be made in the distribution system. His recommendation was that the City would not be free to sell the system, but that it might be best for the Government to file a condemnation suit and condemn the system within the base.

Councilman Pearson suggested that the group, along with Mr. Louis Page and Mr. Wonsley, give the city the deeds for the right-of-way; and if the Highway Department did not take it over, then the City could plan on topping it within the next two years, and the Council would consider it in the 1959 budget.
