Large Conference Room
Members present: Wright, Buck.
Members absent: Chairperson Angel.
it was moved by Buck, seconded by Wright that the Agenda, as
proposed, be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Angel. Motion
carried.
The request of the City Planner for authorization to accept the bid
of Waverly Publishing Company for the printing of 500 long range
land use maps at a cost of $3000 was reviewed. Councilperson Buck
questioned whether this item was necessary given the budgetary
constraints of the city. Don Temeyer, Planning & Development
Director, reported that the maps were last printed in 1987 when the
plan was updated. Maps are used by realtors and developers and are
sold for $5 per copy. This fee could be increased to reflect more
closely the actual cost. It was moved by Buck, seconded by Wright
that authorization be given to purchase said maps. Ayes: Two.
Absent: Angel. Motion carried.
The request of the Human Rights Department for authorization to
purchase a FAX machine from the Community Development Board at a
cost of $520 was reviewed. Councilperson Buck questioned the need
for this FAX machine since the Community Development Department
already has a machine located in the same building as the Human
Rights Office. It was noted that the monthly telephone cost will
be approximately $70 for line charges. Again, due to budgetary
concerns, the need for this item was questioned. After discussion,
it was moved by Buck, seconded by Wright that said request be
denied as it is not a critical need and a FAX machine is available
in the Community Development Department. Ayes: Two. Absent:
Angel. Motion carried.
The request of Prairie Park Apartments for a garbage and sewer
refund in the amount of $1,001. 49 was reviewed. Acting City Clerk
Michelle Temeyer noted that Prairie Park was not aware that when
units are vacant, said vacancy rate can be called to the Water
Works to reduce the minimum sewer and garbage bills. This amount
reflects units that have been vacant during the last year. It was
moved by Buck, seconded by Wright that authorization be given for
said garbage and sewer refund. Ayes: Two. Absent: Angel.
Motion carried.
It was moved by Buck, seconded by Wright that the bills payment be
approved as contained in Schedule A918, pp. 1 - 50 in the amount of
$1,376,062.74, dated June 14, 1993. Ayes: Two. Absent: Angel.
Motion carried.
With no further business before the Committee, the meeting was
adjourned at 6: 40 p.m.
