Mahoney stated he feels this is a technical violation of contract, inasmuch as said
plans have been submitted to and approved by the State Health Department.
City has made no complaint of the fact that volume exceeded maximum premitted by
contract, until the current dispute about overcharges arose; that it is his
understanding the City's system has not been adversely affected by this excessive
flow--and that the contract provides that if flow from Village is too great to be
handled by Minneapolis system, at the request and expense of the Village the City
will expand its system so as to be able to handle the increased volume; this, this
violation, if it is one, would not be gEQunds for terminating the contract.
Telling Council the dispute between Edina and Minneapolis is basically one
over rates and charges, 1-lr. Hahoney reported that in 1962, when the Village staff
first studied the charges which had Been paid by the Village since 1955, it appeared
that the City was probably computing charges to the Village in the proportion which
total volume of sewage from the Village was to "domestic sewage" from the City,
instead of the proportion which total flow from the Village was to total flow

in which third possibility the Village could ask for an injunction to prevent
termination of the contract, for a monetary judgment representing overcharges paid by
the Village in recent years, and for a declaratory judgment clarifying the basis upon
which future charges are to be determined.
Mahoney said the advantage of this procedure is that the 1963 law includes an express
provision that rates and charges shall not include any profit; that the disadvantage
of this procedure is that the Commission apparently would have no authority to adjust
overcharges in past years, and final decision of Commission would be subject to a law
