PHASE II OF THE GIFFORD AREA WATER SYSTEM RENOVATION, AS BEING THE LOWEST AND•BEST BID MEETING SPECIFICATIONS, IN THE AMOUNT OF $57,318.00, SUBJECT TO CLOSING ON THE PURCHASE OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT UTILITIES AND A BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION CHECK -BY THE CONSULTING ENGINEERS. ENGINEER BEINDORF STATED THAT, IF IT IS AGREEABLE TO THE BOARD, THEY WILL PREPARE THE CONTRACT AND LEAVE IT, TOGETHER WITH A REPORT ON THE QUALIFICATIONS OF DRIVEWAYS, INC., WITH THE ATTORNEY FOR REVIEW SO THAT WHEN THE PURCHASE OF U.D.U. IS FINALIZED, WE WILL BE ABLE TO PROCEED IMMEDIATELY. THE BOARD HAD NO OBJECTIONS. CHAIRMAN WODTKE LEFT THE MEETING TEMPORARILY AT 9:05 O'CLOCK A.I. AND MICE.CHAIRMAN LOY TOOK OVER THE MEETING. ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS DISCUSSED REPAIR OF THE AIR CONDI- TIONING SYSTEM IN THE COURTHOUSE ANNEX, WHICH HAS BEEN A CONTINUING PROBLEM. HE INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE WELLS WHICH PUMP UNSATISFACTORY MATERIAL UP INTO THE SYSTEM AND STATED THAT TRIMM HEARING & AIR CONDITIONING NOW HAS RECOMMENDED BUILDING A TANK AND FILLING IT WITH CITY WATER, COMMISSIONER SIEBERT QUESTIONED THE NEED FOR A TANK IF WE ARE HOOKING ONTO THE CITY WATER SYSTEM, AND THE ADMINISTRATOR EXPLAINED THAT WE WOULDN`T NEED TO HOOK ONTO THE CITY WATER SYSTEM AS THIS SAME WATER WOULD BE RECIRCULATED THROUGH THE AIR CONDITIONING SYTEM, HE INFORMED THE BOARD THAT TO PUT IN SUCH A TANK WOULD COST AROUND $2,840 AND NOTED THAT THERE IS OVER $5,000 STILL IN THE BUDGET FOR WORK ON THIS BUILDING. THE ADMINISTRATOR, THEREFORE, RECOMMENDED GIVING THIS METHOD A TRY BECAUSE THE WELLS HAVE NOT PROVEN SATISFACTORY. COMMISSIONER LOY FELT THAT THIS IS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR NELSON NOTED THAT THE BIG PROBLEM IS THAT EVERY TIME THIS DEBRIS GETS INTO THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, IT HAS TO BE FLUSHED OUT WITH ACID WHICH WILL EVENTUALLY EAT OUT THE COILS, AND IF THE COILS HAD TO BE.REPLACED, IT WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE. ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER DEESON, COMMISSIONERS LOY AND SIEBERT VOTED IN FAVOR, THE BOARD ACCEPTED, AS AN EMERGENCY MEASURE, THE PROPOSAL OF TRIMM HEAING & AIR CONDITION- ING IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,840.00 TO BUILD A TANK FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM OF THE COURTHOUSE ANNEX.
