Mr. Herbert Kiefer of 535 Chest.

by making inquiry as to the finane-

was to be based on the rate of
$20.00 per bour for the USe of the
required equipment and the opera-
tor's services. The jOb was to be
performed under the supervision
of the City Engineer and the
Dredge Operator.
The total time as reported by
the Dredge Operator was 4 hours.
At tbe agreed upon rate of $20.00
per hour the cost to the City of
DUbuque for this particular project
should have been $80.00.
On December 27, 1963 the Dock
Commission received a bill for this
job in the amount of $385.00, an
excess of $305.00 over the proper
charge as originally agreed upon.
I refused to O.K. the bill for pay.
ment as also did Mr. Voelker and
I also refused to sign the check.
Mr. Mueller, however, O. K'd the
bill and signed a check for $385.00
in payment thereof.
For the past four years I have
been on the Dock Commission I
have vigorously opposed the ap-
proval of and the payment of bills
that were excessive. My stand
against the acceptance of over
charges resulted in the saving to
the City of Dubuque of several
thousand dollars.
Threats, innuendoes and pres-
sure from many sources failed to
remove me from the Commission.
Apathy, such as demonstrated by
this particular example, however,
has brought about my conviction
that there remains no alternative
for me but to resign. I am accord-
ingly hereby tendering my resig-
nation from membership on the
Dock Commission of the City of
Dubuque effective immediately.
Respectfully yours,
(John J. "Hank" Waltz)
