[Music]
good evening everyone i'd like to call
this connected city council committee
meeting for monday october 18 2021
florida and we'll go straight to the
finance here's the following i'll call
the order of the finance committee the
first item on the agenda is a call for
public hearing for the downtown special
assessment district budget
any questions
next is a call for a public hearing on
the upper union street bid
budget
next is a review of the operational
budget for
2022.
there was a public hearing on october
12th
mr ferrari did you not say anything
you don't have to i don't have to look
thank
on you discussion of the uh
oh yeah
yes
next is the roads garden restoration
committee which is the reimbursement of
expenses now mr craig
house of president richard here and
there the council uh every year the
city of schenectady and
the rose garden committee we
have a kind of agreement that the monies
that uh
the rose garden receives and we
reimburse them for the
expenditures that they left from keeping
the rose garden up
uh
in 2021 the
in 2021 uh the city of schenectady
through the rose gardens permits and
stuff
uh received the 4490
uh the rose garden itself
uh has submitted the bills over fifty
one hundred dollars and we're looking to
reverse them
no more than that four thousand four
hundred and ninety dollars that we
received
so we're asking for the reimbursement
question so they spend spent
5174. and that's the minimum they spent
yeah
they're just showing them what they
expect uh to go over
them
only the full amount that we've received
four thousand four hundred ninety
miss patrick i think that we actually
read personally yeah
none of us we only reimburse them with
the revenues that we receive we should
not reimburse them for more
why would why
all the past years it's only the
revenues that uh that we've received oh
they were not no not in the red yeah
but they're not there now either
they have yeah
if
the council was so inclined to review
that policy
i would suggest you do it during the
budget process and not deviate from the
agreement with the rose garden committee
to
reimburse from what we've taken in
yes
their permits and
the new thing in 2021 was the cameras
yeah matt
i'm just wondering if you did know i was
kind of curious
to what extent that photography did it
bring in any money yes it did it brought
in about fifteen hundred dollars and
what we're going to do next year we're
actually going to put a separate line
for it uh this year we you know we we we
weren't expecting to go too much
but you know we did better than we had
uh expected
and if if you look at uh in 2020 uh
we only uh they only made uh 2 600 so
this is almost a double event you know
oh
[Music]
um there's an agreement between the city
of schenectady and csea
the contract mr ferrara
[Music]
uh the first one is number one just
renaming um a reminder the name of
not paris heights between museum drive
and the public hearing will be held on
october 25th
um number two the award-winning contract
for construction maintenance building at
the municipal golf course
i don't think there was even backup
material for it
without backup
um what we want to do is going for what
we're trying to do is have all our
paperwork in order before bringing so we
want to make sure that they're aware of
some of our requirements because we
haven't worked with the contractor in
quite a while
but right now everything's trending
we've called for references and they
have done work for the city in the past
but we have a meeting with aaron and ron
set up for tomorrow to kind of make sure
that they're aware of the paperwork
requirements and some other things
before we come here officially all right
so we'll see in two weeks yes okay thank
you so uh number three the board meeting
contract for the bail tree card street
removal yep so that one
like i told you at the last meeting
i would reach out to some firms and i
did reach out to some firms and i have
uh two additional firms that i am going
to be doing that would be interested in
bidding
so i would like to put that back out so
that we could try to get at least one of
them to bid so we can have multiple
prices uh for next time i think that
would be the best interest of the city
so that one will hold permanently i just
wanted to make you aware of that since i
brought it up last time so that is going
to be a reboot to try to get a little
bit more competition okay
all right uh number four award-winning
contract for the cycle and the placement
on street in windsor terrace yep this
one we're actually gonna afford right
now okay so
um i have some just handouts just
because i believe it got cut off in case
you wanted to make sure
um
colleen told me that the backup was a
little cut off to see the numbers but we
got several bits
the uh
below for the project was louisi or i'm
sorry newcastle
and
newcastle was a contractor that had just
completed torture park
in mount pleasant i called their uh superintendent and
spoke with him about it uh because his
cost if you look is low comparatively um
and he said that they are stand by their number and they
will complete the work they have a crew
ready to go
so
you know i'd like to try to get them in
as soon as possible to do the work this
year
any questions
okay

second all those
