from the Illinois EPA to transition to another water source and are doing studies on their
system. Our agreement expires on April 30, 2020, so they are requesting a one year extension
of this agreement. Discussion was brought up about the charges to Glen Carbon and the
amount charged to them should be equitable to what is charged to our citizens. Alderman
