~ .:, MARCH 9, 1982 TUESDAY - heating-air conditioning systems, should the ordinance be adopted, as well as offered suggestions designed to ensure compliance with same when future such installations are made. Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Dietrich, of 218 Arrowhead Trail, appeared before Council and (as Mr. Dietrich supported before Council on February 23rd) advocated the need for more stringent decibel-rated regulations than those proposed in said second draft, pointing out that similar regulations in effect in the City of Bloomington, Minnesota, reportedly enjoy the support of both the city government and its citizens. Council concurred with Councilman West's suggestion that City Manager Edmonds and City Attorney Worthy prepare a third draft of the proposed ordinance, reflecting Council's suggestions, for presentation to Council at its forthcoming March 23rd meeting, at which time--should Council desire to consider this matter further--Council will call for a duly-advertised public hearing thereon prior to taking final action. Council was informed that, as a result of recent negotiations between the Virginia Municipal League, the Virginia Association of Counties, and Appalachian Power Company, Appalachian Power Company has submitted a revised tariff, identified as Public Authority Tariff No.2 (to replace its previously-submitted Public Authority Tariff No.1), applicable to electric energy furnished by Appalachian to its retail public facility customers, which revised tariff the two governmental agencies recommend for acceptance by the local governments involved. Upon motion, duly seconded and unanimously carried, Council accepted said PA Tariff No.2, retroactive to January 1, 1982, and authorized City Manager Edmonds to execute (on behalf of the City) the required agreement thereon with Appalachian Power Company, which agreement will be in effect through June 30, 1984, and may continue in effect thereafter for successive periods of one year, unless terminated.
