Moved by Clark, seconded by Welper that the request of Mayor Hurley for pre-authorization to
expend $2,500.00 for Cedar Valley Coalition dues for Fiscal Year 2005 be approved. Ayes:
Three. Motion carried.
Moved by Clark, seconded by Welper that the request of the Community Planning and
Development Director for pre-authorization to expend $3,850.00 to pay cost for Howard R.
Green Company to prepare documentation to be forwarded to the State Historic Preservation
Office for 218 Elm Street be approved. Noel Anderson, City Planner, reported that the
expenditure will be funded with state and federal grant monies. The city identified 218 Elm
Street as being historic and eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The
State Historic Preservation Office is requiring that the city furnish documentation, information
and history on 218 Elm Street in order to proceed with demolition of the structure. The property
may no longer be eligible to remain as an historic site due to condition of the building and
changes to the neighborhood. Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with
the following result. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.
Moved by Clark, seconded by Welper that the request of the Superintendent of Traffic
Operations for pre-authorization to expend $4,086.00 to purchase street name signs be approved.
Ayes: Three. Motion carried.
Moved by Clark, seconded by Welper that the request of the Airport Director for pre-
authorization to expend $7,000.00 to lease 20' bat wing rotary cutter and a commercial front
mount mower be approved. The Airport Director reported that the Airport Board approved
leasing the agreement for one year. The Airport Director was given authorization to sell the old
equipment and seek bids on the new equipment by the Finance Committee. Bids were solicited
for the new equipment, and John Deere was the lowest bidder. The Airport does not have the
funds budgeted for a lease/purchase of the equipment. The contract was signed in May, but the
Airport is not obligated to John Deere. Mayor Hurley suggested approving the one year lease
and come back next year with an analysis of a lease/purchase versus purchase. Councilperson
Schmitt stated that with a normal John Deere lease, the city would still have the option to
purchase the equipment as used equipment and apply the $7,000.00 to the purchase of the
equipment. Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with the following
result. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.
Moved by Clark, seconded by Welper that the request of the Cultural & Arts Commission
Director for pre-authorization to expend $14,750.00 for a blanket authorization for food
purchases for the Center For The Arts be approved. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.

With no further business before the committee, it was moved by Greenwood, seconded by Clark
that the meeting be adjourned at 4:17 p.m. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.
