maintenance issues and other factors He clazified that if a truck is beyond repair it could be replaced sooner or if a truck is still in good condition at the seven year mark it may be pushed to 9 or

13Council Member Catlin stated that if the subject business is included in the category 20 because of disproportionate calls then the increase in license fees is not justified Mark McGrath gave

repairs done at 19 20 his business if desired Mr Johnson reiterated that all this particular owner performs are emissions and inspections 47 Mayor Wall stated that his understanding of the basis for the appeal is that the business 21 20 owner is not questioning the study or the number of disproportionate calls assigned to the category but rather objecting to being placed in the automotive business category The Mayor noted that the City paid for the study performed and the study adopted by the Council defined a fmite number of categories He suggested that if the Council grants the appeal it will have to determine which other category in which to place this particular business 47Chairman Pratt clarified that even if a separate category were established for this type 22 20 of business the number of disproportionate calls on record for the two businesses identified in Taylorsville would result in a higher number of calls and may justify an even higher fee 01 Mayor Wall

in the City had more disproportionate calls than other businesses within the automotive category 53Mr McGrath clarified that the study set a baseline comparable to a single family 23 20 residential

some businesses that have had disproportionate fees on business 24 20 licenses reduced for various reasons 39 Council Member Johnson said that a decision needs to be made whether a reference to 25 20 repairs should be removed from the category 49 Chairman Pratt reiterated that if the study is amended and a separate category is 25 20 created the two businesses affected will have even higher disproportionate fees in the new category 11Council Member Barbour suggested that there may be need to conduct further study 26 20 regarding business fees She stated however that the City currently
