Mr. Tolley leads the Photo by Barbara It's been months since the business license committee made their recommendations, but the Council stiU hasnt been able to come to grips all the way with the new ordinance. They moved a couple of meetings back to set regular bulness license fees at $25.00 per year for all residential permanent type businesses. And Monday they finally agreed to the beer license fees as rec- -. ommended. And after an attempt by Yount to reduce the license for amusement machines and devices, they finally set a fee of $25.00 per machine, including gaming tables and pool tables, and eliminated any fees on coin operated vending machines. But they still havent come to grips with a license fee for itinerant merchants. The committee recommended a fee of $250 per year, not to be prorated. The theory behind the recommendation is that itinerant merchants, those who hit town for a one might stand or at most two or three days, contribute little If anything to the community. Often they come and go so fast they don't even pay a license fee. Few If any pay sales tax, they provide no employment.and they often offer Interior merchandise at exhorbitant prices. But the hangup Is that some services and peddlers are welcomed and desirable. For Instance the Council doesn't want to stop or hinder fruit peddlers or other fresh produce. They dont want to exclude some services which are not avail -able In the community. The Green River ordinances would rectify most of these problems, but no one to know for sure seems whether they are in force in And no one has Milford. taken It upon himself to Investigate. The dilemma will almost certainly come to a head at the January 3rd meeting, because business licenses are due January 1st. Mayor Pettey refused to sign work order 17 on the industrial park, which would cost the city another The discrepancy is one that would come out of the city's pocket, since EDA will not participate, and is an overrun not Included in the contract price. The Council upheld the Mayor, and while the outcome Is not known, because the courts may rules in favor of the engineer, the Council plans to keep a stiff upper chin. With Milford in line for funds for the airport project and possibly a sewer project, they've been bombard-e- d with engineers wanting to go to work. Piatt and Piatt $13,-417.- made a bid Monday. The FAA has approved $250,000 for lights and resurfacing at the airport -t- hough final approval is still pending. The city is working to get more apron and tie downs. Russell Booth and Randy Horluch met with the board to give them a marketing update on the Industrial Park. They indicated that the economy had slowed much industrial ventures, but were optimistic that conditions would rapidly improve in 1983.
