September 21 , 1992
6 : 30 p.m.
Large Conference Room
Members present: Chairperson Angel, Wright and Buck.
It was moved by Buck, seconded by Angel that the Agenda, as amended
to delete Item No. 2 under New Business, entitled "Garbage refund
for 245 Fletcher Avenue--Clerk/Auditor" and add Item No. 4 entitled
"Permission to clean two anaerobic digesters--Superintendent of
Water Pollution/Flood Control" be approved. Motion carried.
The following software upgrades for use by the Engineering
Department CAD (computer-aided drafting) stations were reviewed:
Auto CAD Release 12 3 @ $504. 00/ea = $1 , 500 . 00
DOS 5 . 0 1 @ $ 70. 00/ea = $ 70. 00
2 @ $ 60 . 00/ea = $ 120 . 00
PC Tools 3 @ $106 . 00/ea = $ 318 . 00
Memory Modules 1 @ $300. 00/ea = $ 300 . 00
2 @ $185 . 00/ea = $ 370. 00
TOTAL $2 , 678 . 00
These prices represent upgrades provided by the same company that
has provided the initial software and is not available through any
other vendor. A large majority of the work done on the Auto-CAD
stations is for the local option sales tax projects and therefore
was recommended as a source of funding. All previous hardware and
software costs have been expensed to the general fund. It was
moved by Buck, seconded by Wright that authorization be given to
purchase said software upgrades. Motion carried.
Chief Bernie Koehrsen presented the request of Police Officer Knief
for reimbursement for damage to his personal vehicle while
traveling to Cedar Rapids in response to a Federal subpoena. Costs
of repair to the windshield is $183 . 92 . He asked that Finance
Committee resolve the matter since disagreement on this issue has
arisen between the Police Department and Larry P. Burger,
Clerk/Auditor.
Chief Koehrsen noted that the Waterloo Police Protective
Association contract could be interpreted either way and stated
that it is his belief that he should be compensated. He noted that
his staff is currently preparing a new department policy that will
require an officer who is traveling out of town to either seek
permission for use of a personal vehicle or obtain a city vehicle
for travel. This policy was not in effect at the time of the
incident.
Larry P. Burger, Clerk/Auditor, noted that the city' s travel policy
allows for reimbursement for use of a personal vehicle for city
business at a rate of 25 cents per mile which includes the costs of
operating said vehicle. He also noted that the employee assumes
all risk associated with the use of his personal vehicle. It was
noted that Mr. Knief does not carry collision coverage on his
vehicle and therefore was not eligible for reimbursement expense by
his insurance company.
Officer Knief noted that he did not seek reimbursement at the rate
of 25 cents per mile for said trip and that he was acting in an
official capacity and is required to appear when subpoenaed.
Mr. Burger noted that it would be dangerous precedent for the
Finance Committee to reimburse said costs and urged the Committee
to deny the request.
After discussion, it was moved by Wright, second by Buck that
