Mayor Gottfried reviewed with the committee the present statement of
values used in determining the cost of the city's insurance program.
He explained that the values have not been updated for at least three
years and that since the present insurance program is predicated on
a 90% co-insurance requirement the updating of the values is a necessity
in order that the city can be fully covered. Mayor Gottfried explained 1) this could mean substantial increases in our fire insurance premiums.
Mr. David Haas, representing a client interested in operating a pizza
hut in the city, appeared to discuss with the committee his request to
increase the number of Class "B" Fermented Malt Beverage Licenses
presently authorized by one (1) in order that the establishment could
serve beer. The committee advised Mr, Haas that they would not recommend
the amendment, however, a resolution would be submitted to the Common
Council without recommendation in order that the issue could be resolved.
Ald. Schaumberg moved to adjourn, seconded- by Ald. Colburn, motion
carried. The meeting adjourned at 8:15 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Paul J. Schaumberg, Sec'y.

S. Mayor Gottfried informally discussed with the aldermen present the
request of Rock Contractors to extend the completion time of the
Freedom Acres Sewer Project an additional two months. Mayor

approval of the request because of the condition of the sub-soil
is such that the roads in the subdivision could be totally
obliterated if the project were continued in winter. The alder-
men present agreed to support the recommendation which will be
sent to the Council on Tuesday night.
