RE: Letter dated January 6, 2009

Dear Scott:

The Charter Township of Ironwood Board recognizes the Pat O’Donnell Civic Center as a vital recreational facility to the entire Gogebic Range.

Due to this fact, the Charter Township of Ironwood has already forgiven $12,637.20 of the water bill for the Civic Center. As you are aware, the Township paid $7,494.56 to the City for the time period of July, 2005-September, 2008.

The Charter Township of Ironwood Board’s decision is we cannot forgive any of the $7,494.56 as the City Commission has proposed. The Board feels we would not be acting fiscally responsible in forgiving money we have already paid.

If the City forgives the Township the entire $7,494.56, we can absolve the Civic Center of that amount.

Sincerely,
 

Kim Mattson
Supervisor
