Ms. McArthur said if it was to be changed then the amount needed to be determined prior to filing for election, which was the week of July 22. She said the effective date could be January 1, 1992. Councilmember McKee said an amount of seven hundred dollars a month seemed reasonable. He agreed the amount needed to be changed; the difference could be applied to the planner fee.
