Sunset Mayor Norm Sant announced Mon- day that the city won't be allowing reductions for needy or fixed income residents. DESPITE A barrage of complaints at recent city council meetings from angry citizens opposed to a sudden hike in utility costs, the mayor and council have decided not to change the going rate for anyone. The decision, the mayor said, is based on the practicality of the matter." He said the city has suffered through 3'j years of inflation, increases in sewer and water fees and has held several public hearings on the matter to hear citizen input. The recent hike came after the city decided it could no longer balance the budget on existing fees. for the sudden increase. And." he said, "we really don't have any right to reduce the rates," since the fees are set up according to standard codes. The mayor stressed that if the city is to be run like a business. the council cant set itself up as "judge and jury."

The mayor gave the case of one man who recently sold out to a California couple because the citys utility rates are so high. "Most of the rental unit owners have been really discouraged." he said, but a lot of the others have called and said they understand. 1 appreciate people calling," Mayor Sant said of the leaders should get involved with civil matters anymore. "It takes so much money to administer," he said. The general concensus of the council in last week's city council meeting was to keep the rates the same for everyone. Though there are six or problem, bccaus then "we can explain our side to them." He said some people just hang up, but they still have to pay the fees.

THE ATTORNEV ha requested an Sfi.ouo increase be added to hi contract wuh the county before ihe end of ihe year. Bui he said ihe additional funding won't be for personal terviccs. It will go towards hiring another lawyer to assist him with hit burdening caseload. Mr. Martin, whose appearances before ihe commission have bolstered complaints from County Attorney Rodney Page in past weeks, said adding the money might not be the best answer for Ihe county. HE SAID it has teen his job to control the cost of and the number of cases, but some colleagues of his have w arned that this is really not his responsibility, but the responsibility of the county. Still, the attorney said Til do what has to be done. But the thing is. I'm getting worn down.

What you are asking, and what I am required to do." Martin said, are opposites. He stressed that adding the money will only solve some of the problems for this year. He is worried about next year, though, and the existence of the public defender's office bevond that. ATTY. M ARTIN singled out the hiring of another law yer as a step in the right direction, but cautioned the commission that they would have to pay the counsel $2,000 per month. The fee, he said, wouldn't even cover office space or secretarial expenses. He also said adding another person is not an easy transition. The lawyer recalled his. own appointment and said if he handt known some of the people, he could not have held the office of the public defender together as well as he has.
