FINDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS
CONCERNING REASONS FOR SUSPENSION OF ANY CHANGE IN
FEE SCHEDULE OF TRI -COUNTY ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.
The reasons of the City Council of the City of Southlake,
Texas, for the consideration and passing of Resolution Number
79-36, which reasons were adopted by the said City Council prior
to the actual passage of such Resolution, are as follows:
I. The application for fee adjustment was first received
by the said City on October 2, 1979, and this is the first
regular Council meeting at which this matter could be considered,
and the Council believes that approximately 120 days or more
will be needed for adequate review of the matter by the Council
itself, its attorney and the conducting of public hearings.
II. It will be necessary and proper for the citizens of the
City of Southlake, Texas, to engage in public hearings and hear
discussions both b;T the rec?ulatory body and Utility at rate hear-
ings, which first rate hearing date the Council will set later
in this said Council meeting.
III. Based on the preliminary review of the information on
hand by the said City, Council, the City Council is of the present
opinion that there is insufficient information to pass on a
rate change and at least 120 days will be necessary to obtain
such information.
The above findings made by the City Council of the City
of Southlake, Texas, this 16th day of October, 1979.
