ADJUSTMENT
The amount of each net monthly bill computed at the above stated
rates shA1J be subject to the following adjustment: Plus an amount equiv^.-
lent to the proportionate part of any new tax, or increased tax, or any
other governmental imposition, rental, fee or charge (except state, county,
I2 city and special district ad valorem taxes and taxes on net income) levied,
assessed or imposed subsequent to July 1, 1969, upon or allocable to the
Company's distribution operations, by any new or amended law, ordinance or
contract. Each gross monthly bill shall be adjusted proportionately. Com-
pany, at its option, may forego the application of this adjustment; however,
failure of Company to apply such adjustment shall not constitute a waiver
of Company's right from time to time, or at any time, to make such adjust-
ment, in whole or in part, in any subsequent current monthly bill that may
be applicable to such bill.
Net rate shall apply to all bills paid within ten days from
monthly billing date; gross rate shall be applicable thereafter.

The above rate is applicable to each residential and commercial
consumer per month or for any part of a month for which gas is used at
the same location.
In addition to the aforesaid rates, Company shall have the right
to collect such reasonable charges as are necessary to conduct its business
and to carry out its reasonable rules and regulations in effect.
SECTION 2. The rate set forth in Section 1 may be changed and
amended by either the City or Company furnishing gas in the manner pro-
vided by law. Service hereunder is subject to the orders of regulatory
bodies having jurisdiction, and to the Company's Rules and Regulations
currently on file in the Company's office.
SECTION 3. The fact that there is an imperative public need for
an ordinance fixing and determining the rate for gas and gas service fur-
nished to residential and commercial consumers creates an emergency, and
the reading and passage of this ordinance at three separate meetings is
hereby suspended and this ordinance shall take effect and be in full force
from and after the date of its passage at a single meeting and the approval
thereof by the Mayor.
