The present V rental fee for this building is $1 per month, which was agreed to on an experimental basis for the building. I believe that if this agreement is renewed, the City should receive a reasonable rental fee for our investment. LAKE COUNTY OPTIONAL GAS TAX. Pursuant to the materials enclosed in the last weekly memo, the Council should give the county some direction on the possibility of holding a referendum for an ad- ditional 1C gas tax for Lake County. All proceeds from such a tax must be used for road construction or maintenance. RELOCATION OF WATER LINES. Enclosed is a letter I have sent to the DOT rejecting their bids for the relocation of City water lines on Highway 50. The City can now proceed with bids to obtain our own contractor for this work.

In the month of May, four permits were issued for new resi- dences and thirteen permits for additions and repairs. A total of 48 permits of all types were issued. FIRE DEPARTMENT.

The City Council at their May 25, 1982 meeting considered your letter and were pleased that you intend to develop this prop- erty, keep the yard mowed, and place a fence around the house. However, they were interested on your timetable for development because the home on this property which was damaged by fire must be either demolished or rebuilt as soon as possible. For this reason, the Council requested that you inform them of your client's timetable for developing this property and rebuild- ing this home. The Council will consider this matter again at the June 8, 1982 meeting. I would appreciate an answer by that time. Dick, I trust that you can understand the City's concerns with the numerous complaints from neighbors regarding vagrants and the unsafe building conditions.
