Mr. Mihalkanin asked if the Council <br />would be able to change the logo in the future and was advised the <br />Council can change the logo. Mr. Guerra suggested Staff consider <br />purchasing less supplies with the logo in the event the Council <br />chose to change the logo. Mr. Hart stated he was not interested in <br />the logo being changed, as it would be too expensive, and Mr. Cox <br />stated he was sympathetic to Mr. Hart's concern.

Ms. Hughson queried if Office Depot moved to <br />San Marcos in the future, if they would constitute a locally based <br />firm, and Mr. Taylor advised they would not. Mr. Taylor advised the <br />Council he had recently made an error regarding a bid award. He <br />researched this matter and advised the Council it is an element of <br />State law the locally based bidder is over the out of town bidder in <br />a tie bid situation.

Ms. Hughson expressed concern for the limited use for <br />parks and wanted to know if we could include the golf course. Mr. <br />Gilley stated that would be a small amount of water, and this would <br />be a pilot program. The City has trucks available that could be <br />used for this purpose. Mr. Gilley advised there are some safeguards <br />already in place, and Mr. Boeker added the same safeguards would <br />apply at the new wastewater treatment plant.
