Commendable reporting this morning from the Standard's new Ogden Political Beat reporter Mitch Shaw, regarding an item on the agenda at one of the council's several 1/31/12 meetings.
Specifically, Mr. Shaw reports on one element of the Council's ongoing water rate study, which was again discussed at last night's Council work session:
Mr. Shaw's story puts the focus on a Council-sponsored Web-based survey designed to gather input from the public:
If you haven't yet taken the time to add your own input on this survey, here's the specific link (something which Mr. Shaw's otherwise good story fails to provide):OGDEN -- The city is in the midst of a comprehensive study on how much it will charge residents for water, and officials want to hear from the public.
The Ogden City Council is in month two of a four-month study that will determine water, storm sewer and sanitary sewer rates for the next five to 10 years.
The city has released a six-question, Web-based survey designed to gather input from the public.
Have at it, Ogden City Lumpencitizens.
It's great to actually have a sitting mayor and council who actually want to know what you think, ainnit, O Gentle Ones?
Update 2/1/12 11:38 a.m.: We just received an email missive from our most-esteemed regular WCF contributor Dan Schroeder, who offers this:
I see that you have a story up about water rates. Perhaps you'd like to upload the attached report and add a link to it. I shared the report with the city council yesterday, in advance of their meeting.Voila! Dan's request is our command, AFAWC. Here's Dan's timely new contribution, folks:
Lots think about, WCF readers, don'tcha think?
