.FEB 14I'd 9 <br />BOOK 76 FACE 127 <br />Administrator Chandler recommended that Director Pinto get <br />the quote in writing and signed by Mr. Fischer before we give Mr. <br />Fischer notice to proceed with the demolition. <br />Director Pinto stated that he Would get that done, but <br />reiterated that he wag looking for a commitment of that amount of <br />money today. When we contracted with Heron Cay 5-6 years ago, we <br />agreed to have that plant removed. We thought we could do it <br />in-house, but found that we couldn't handle it. <br />Commissioner Scurlock understood that the reason the <br />proposal is not in writing is because it was an emergency item <br />and that Director Pinto had attempted to make phone calls to get <br />proposals, and of those phone calls at least one responded in <br />writing, two of them said they were not going to respond at all, <br />and two gave verbal quotes to Director Pinto. <br />Director Pinto felt that is exactly the reason why the <br />proposal was not in writing. In fact, some of them just laughed <br />when he called them for quotes. After receiving some of these <br />other quotes that we were kind of uncomfortable with, he <br />personally called Mr. Fischer and asked him what he could do for <br />ussince we had to get this thing done for a reasonable amount of <br />money. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, that the Board approve the <br />proposal from Fischer Construction for demolition <br />and disposal of the plant, subject to the written <br />proposal receiving approval by the County <br />Administrator, the County Attorney, and the Director <br />of Utilities. <br />Under discussion, Chairman Wheeler asked Director Pinto if <br />he had called Mr. Fischer after he received the other proposals, <br />but Director Pinto explained that these proposals were not sent <br />56 <br />
