Discussion was heard on bid solicitation for office supplies. Prior
to authorization, the committee wished to discuss the current
purchasing practices. It was moved by Klinger, seconded by Getty
that authorization to take bids on office supplies be delayed for two
(2) weeks. Motion carried.
William Hammer appeared to discuss delinquent sewer and garbage
charges that had been certified to his taxes for property he rents
out at 122 Mobile. He expressed concern because he was not notified
that his tenant had been negligent in his payments. Larry Burger,
Clerk/Auditor, stated that prior to certification in June,
notification letters had been sent to property owners. In an attempt
to identify property owners, the Water Works records the owner's name
in those instances where the renter receives the bill. It was moved
by Getty, seconded by Klinger that action on this item be delayed for
one week. Motion carried.
