Lone Star Gas Company representative, Vernon ON
Henderson, addressed the Council, giving a . RAT
brief summarization of the request for the 233
rate increase filed with the City last Novem-
ber. Councilman Popkin_gave the rates of
various surrounding cities. Much discussion
followed with Mr. Henderson assuring the
Council that a proposal of $2.65 for the 1st j
1,000 cu.ft. and $1.90 over that would be en-,
tirely unacceptable by Lone Star Gas. The
point was raised concerning the break-out of
Southlake's rates from the Grapevine distribu-
tion system. The Council, after hearing the
Mayor present its options, considered going
along with the rates adopted by Grapevine,
i.e., $3 for the lst 1,000 cu.ft. and $2.12
over. This failing, Council then passed Ordi-
nance No. 233, fixing the general service rate
to be charged for gas to customers within the
City as follows: $2.80 for the 1st 1,000 cu.
ft. and $2.00 per Mcf over that, with the
stipulation that the gate charge adjustment be
permitted the maximum'of 30% increase in any
twelve month period based on $1.3488 per Mcf
level in the intracompany city gate charge
authorized by the Railroad Commission.

lowing an explanation from Councilman Urbanosk
