55 Regular Meeting October 8, 1984 Page 5 He said he preferred the Council to table the matter rather than terminate the lease, wherein they would have to start the process from the beginning again. Jim Gandy from the Chamber of Commerce said the Industrial Board would be meeting on October 18 and this matter could be placed on their agenda if NAAC wanted it to be. On Mr. Coddington's tabling motion, the following vote was record- ed: AYE: Brown, Coddington, Kissler, Moore. NAY: Farr, Guerra. ABSTAIN: None. The motion failed (requires 3/4 vote of Council). Mr. Coddington moved to deny the Resolution and Mr. Moore seconded the motion. On roll call the following vote was recorded: AYE: Brown, Coddington, Kissler, Moore. NAY: Farr, Guerra. ABSTAIN: None. The motion passed. Council directed Staff to place the matter on a future agenda if the difficulties were not worked out. Mr. Farr introduced for consideration approval to refund the retainer of $2,277.00 on the Cemetery Maintenance Contract for the FY83-84 to Gene Bagwell d/b/a Maintenance Management. Ms. Kissler moved for ap- proval of the refund and Mr. Moore seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Mr. Farr introduced for consideration approval to authorize bidding for the streetlights for Downtown. Terry Colley said there was money in the 84-85 budget to pay for installation of forty lights ($315 x 40 = $18,600). He requested funds be made available for the purchase of these 16 lights (New York style 15' cast iron poles with double plain crossarm poles, with 2 25" Lexan acorn globes with GE Warmtone mercury lamps or equivalent) from fund balance in the amount of $26,000. The City has previously purchased 47 light fixtures that are in storage and have never been installed. The Council directed the budgeted funds be used to install the old lights that are in stor- age. After such time we could bring this matter to the Council again to quthorize bidding for the 16 new lights to go around the Courthouse Square (exterior side) and the Council would find funds at that time to pay for the installation of the new light fixtures. Vince VandeWalle agreed with the Council's direction and added it would be wise to co- ordinate with the purchasing of the lights with the County when they purchase lights to go around the Courthouse so that all light fixtures would coordinate and could probably be purchased at a better price. The Council took no formal action on this matter. Mr. Farr introduced for consideration approval to authorize bidding for the janitorial services contract for City Hall. Ms. Kissler moved for approval for authorization to bid and Mr. Guerra seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Mr. Farr introduced for consideration approval to authorize bidding for the cemetery irrigation system in Dixon Addition.
