SAY 2 11980 BOOK 4'r� � pAcfW (4) AUTHORIZATION TO SPEND ABOUT $4,000 FOR SEEDLINGS AND MATERIAL NECESSARY TO STABILIZE THE BLUFF LINE. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT FELT THE BOARD NEEDED SOME RECOMMENDATION ON WHAT ITEMS SHOULD BE BID. MR. MARSH NOTED THAT HE HAS DISCUSSED THIS. WITH ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS, AND THEY BELIEVE IT IS WITHIN THE CAPABILITY OF THE COUNTY FORCES TO DO A LOT OF THIS WORK. THE PROBLEM THEY HAVE IS THE JULY VACATION PERIOD AND TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH THIS PROJECT IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. MR. MARSH STATED THAT IT WAS THE FEELING OF EVERYONE CONCERNED THAT IT WOULD BE ADVISABLE TO GO OUT FOR BIDS ON THE RELIEF STATION, THE GAZEBO, THE BOARDWALK AND PERHAPS EVEN THE ADDITIONAL TWO CROSSOVERS, AND THEY WERE CONSIDERING ADDING AS AN OPTION THE UTILITIES CONSTRUCTION THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED — WATER, SEWER, POWER, ETC. ADMINISTRATOR JENNI.NGS SUGGESTED, BECAUSE OF THE LOAD BEING IMPOSED ON THE ROAD & BRIDGE DEPARTMENT, GOING TO BID BUT DOING IT IN ALTERNATES SO THAT ANY BID CAN BE ACCEPTED OR REJECTED WITHOUT AFFECTING THE OTHER. IN THIS WAY, IF SOME OF THE BIDS PROVE TO BE UNSATISFACTORY, WE CAN MOVE AHEAD WITH THE COUNTY FORCES. COMMISSIONER DEESON STATED THAT AS. MUCH AS HE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS COMPLETED BY NOVEMBER, HE WOULD BE A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT THE COST INVOLVED IN PUTTING IT OUT TO BID VERSUS COUNTY CREWS DOING IT AT SOME OTHER TIME. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT ASKED ABOUT THE PROBLEM OF CONSTRUCTION , BEING CARRIED ON IN THE PARK IN THE SUMMERTIME WHEN THE PUBLIC IS USING IT DAILY. COMMISSIONER LOY NOTED THE SEEDING AND STABILIZATION OF THE BLUFF LINE TO KEEP THAT AREA FROM ERODING IS MOST IMPORTANT AND MUST BE DONE IMMEDIATELY. SHE SHARED EVERYONE'S CONCERN ABOUT INTERFERING WITH THE PUBLIC S ENJOYMENT OF THE BEACH, BUT FELT WITH THE SCHEDULE THAT HAS BEEN OUTLINED AND THE VACATIONS OF THE ROAD & BRIDGE PEOPLE THROUGHOUT JULY, THAT WE WOULD NOT INTERFERE WITH THE PUBLIC TOO MUCH. COMMISSIONER LOY FELT WE SHOULD CARRY OUT THE EARLY PART OF THE SCHEDULE AND IN THE MEANTIME BID SOME OF THE ITEMS BECAUSE WE CANNOT AFFORD TO PUT OUR WORK CREWS OUT THERE FOR THREE SOLID WEEKS.
