Super busy council meeting tonight

The supporting materials for Wednesday’s city council meeting were distributed Tuesday afternoon. The PDF is linked below. Details:

  1. Purchase of a hot patch machine that can fill potholes using millings year-round. The machine will cost $74,720. It was tried out last year but not purchased. It will be paid for with CHIPs funds from state taxpayers.
  2. A $93,000 change order for Scott Lawn Yard for the North Military/Cayuga Drive project. The change is for water and sewer work and will be reimbursed by the Water Board. The change order was previously rejected by the council because either the executive branch poorly communicated or the council didn’t understand.
  3. Revisiting the previously delayed John Duke Senior Center air sterilization equipment. The $375,000 project will be paid for by federal taxpayer dollars from the American Rescue plan.
  4. A $55,000 change order for work on city pools. The cost, if approved, paid for by federal taxpayer dollars from the American Rescue plan.
  5. A no cost change order for work on the Duck Island Gazebo.
  6. A licensing agreement with 16 Athletics pertaining to Hyde Park Arena. The agreement is complicated. It is in the supporting documents.

If all these items make the floor, between comment on agenda items and for the good of the community should make it a lengthy and contentious meeting. Bring popcorn.
