[0:00] Hey, Jeremy.
[0:09] » Okay, once it's 8:00, we'll go ahead and call
[0:12] a special meeting for the Prospery Town Board to order for acceptance.
[0:17] Um bids on the construction project.
[0:22] Jared, do you want to take it over? >> Yeah, good. Several items here to review
[0:26] and discuss. The first is would be uh leftover funds that the town has for
[0:31] the Wastewater Treatment project. We have the phase two work,
[0:36] uh which included two project areas that we had
[0:41] eight bidders. So, it was well attended. Um and the low
[0:48] um responsive responsible bidder for the project was Copper Ridge Contracting
[0:54] with a total base bid of $254,970.
[0:59] This is well below the engineer's estimates. Uh there are funds available
[1:04] to complete the project through the IFA SRF project. So, engineer recommends
[1:10] that town accept the low bidder of Copper Ridge Contracting.
[1:16] » Now, I'll have a motion to accept it. >> Make a motion we accept the lower bid of
[1:20] Copper Ridge Contracting. >> And I'll second that. All in favor?
[1:25] » Aye. >> Any opposed? Hearing none.
[1:34] » And we also have uh the the town is requesting additional funds using the
[1:40] same IFA SRF program for two pieces of equipment here. Uh the
[1:46] first of which is uh for
[1:54] Uh this is the CCTV camera quotes. So, the low responsive responder was
[2:00] Insight Vision at $11,128.
[2:06] So, engineer recommends town proceed with Insight.
[2:12] » Make a motion we accept the bid the given by Insight Vision for $11,128.
[2:19] » I'll second that. All in favor?
[2:22] » Aye. >> Any opposed?
[2:25] Hearing none. >> What was that number again?
[2:28] » $11,128. >> Oh.
[2:30] » Mhm.
[2:34] And then lastly, what the town has also has other piece of equipment which the
[2:38] town will be installing themselves. Said equipment is
[2:43] manhole insert dishes and didn't see three quotes for this as well.
[2:50] The low responsive responder was Sealing Systems
[2:55] Inc. with 80 inflow dishes at $50 a piece for
[3:00] $4,000. So, engineer recommends town proceed with Sealing Systems Inc.
[3:07] » Uh make a motion that we accept the bid given by Sealing Systems Inc. for four
[3:11] grand for manhole insert dish dishes. >> I'll second that. All in favor?
[3:17] » Aye. >> Any opposed?
[3:20] Hearing none.
[3:25] These documents here are doing the same thing.
[3:29] » I want to hear that out in the
[3:30] future. >> Yeah.
[3:32] » Two certifications. >> Okay.
[3:34] Okay. And then um
[3:37] just give a quick update some other business here. So, the
[3:41] we'll send these documents over to SRF for phase two and improvements. That
[3:47] should proceed a little bit quicker than the equipment. Uh the equipment will
[3:52] require a PER amendment and we have to submit a publisher's affidavit first
[4:00] giving to note what the project entails what
[4:03] the changes are and then once the publisher's affidavit is complete in the
[4:07] paper then we'll submit the ER amendment request. Chris will have to sign on
[4:12] that. So the the second task I have here I guess inside all this
[4:19] equipment and bid acceptance is to give I recommend to give authorization to
[4:25] Chris Anderson the town council president the ability to execute any
[4:30] further SRF documents so you don't have to have any additional special meetings
[4:35] to sign the documents necessary to keep the project moving forward.
[4:42] » Uh make a motion to to allow Chris to uh conduct business uh
[4:49] for the town clerk be uh based on Drew's recommendation there.
[4:54] » I'll second that. >> All in favor say "Aye".
[4:58] Any opposed? Hearing none. >> So once we get going here get
[5:02] publisher's affidavit we'll work with T Kim on that to what we need to provide
[5:05] in the paper and then I'll have some other further documents for you to sign
[5:09] and then there will also be like the notice of award
[5:13] uh notice to proceed we can certainly do that during uh town council meetings
[5:18] we'll we'll do so but if we need to keep it moving forward we'll just send those
[5:22] paperwork over to you.
[5:26] I believe that's all uh John Ben Redman.
[5:32] So with the Hurricane net project
[5:37] So before you guys purchase we'll have to go through these couple of other BS
[5:41] steps first. You got it.
[5:53] » So, any other business I had was
[5:58] uh we go ahead and fill in the BZA. That's that.
[6:07] That's the one thing. >> What do you mean there's an opening?
[6:09] » It's an opening. Just two.
[6:18] Oh, that's advice. All right. So, we did fill up
[6:22] two open spots on the BZA. Um
[6:26] so, the first one was appointed
[6:31] uh by council president. And then they also
[6:35] had the planning commission member, so Fred McIntyre is taking that position.
[6:40] And then the other open spot was uh just for citizen member appointed by council
[6:46] president. Neighbor and he's going to take that spot.
[6:51] So, we still do have an open spot on the advisory planning commission and we're
[6:57] going to do that next.
[7:00] » You said who's taking spot on which part of the start?
[7:04] » BZA. >> BZA.
[7:05] » As citizen member. >> Yes.
[7:07] » And the other one is has the planning commission member.
[7:15] Is there any other business that needs to be brought forth?
[7:19] » I know we had an outstanding was it on the we did get the new pump stuck in the
[7:24] uh return station and that's running fine. We have no problems. We generally
[7:29] we'd like to go ahead and pull the second one out which we'd do as
[7:31] maintenance but we had the one sitting there that came
[7:35] in shop that we never made a motion on to do not to do and I felt like I'm
[7:41] compelled to get them some It's like, "Hey, we're going to do
[7:45] something with it. And if you want to wait till the next board meeting to
[7:47] think about it, but it's the one that was going to cost us
[7:50] about $4,700. So, basically 2/3 or, you know,
[7:54] better than the uh replacement if you wanted to have one in storage.
[8:00] But, um >> Cuz the new one was what? 61?
[8:04] » Si- Yeah, 6,000 something. A little six is right.
[8:08] » Yeah. And if you don't want to have it, then
[8:12] that's fine. I just wanted to get it out of their shop if that's the
[8:15] case. You know, >> Yeah.
[8:17] I mean, I'm that close to the replacement. I almost feel like we'd
[8:20] want to put the new one
[8:22] » into Yeah, and >> our inventory type deal than that
[8:25] rebuild that one. >> we feel that would be the gist of it.
[8:27] Yes, we would do. But, I just wanted to counsel driven.
[8:31] » So, Yeah, I mean, if you guys want to go ahead and get that back, and then cuz is
[8:35] it the same as the other one that's the older one we have?
[8:39] » We got two different ones in there right now from the what the original was.
[8:44] Um the newest one is KBX. It's in Sand Ridge.
[8:49] And then the other one, I forgot the name on it, but it's been in there a
[8:52] little over a year, but it's due for pull, due maintenance, and
[8:57] back in. So, we're just going to keep that rotation going.
[9:01] » Yeah.
[9:04] So, yeah, if you want to go ahead and get that one rebuilt or whatever, you
[9:07] know what I mean, I'd go ahead and get that done. And then
[9:10] uh maybe next year we'll look at getting a backup pump Yeah, to have.
[9:17] » Look ahead and see. >> Yeah.
[9:19] » Sorry, we're repairing the one, not replacing it with a new one.
[9:23] » Well, no, and we won't repair it. We've already replaced it with a new one.
[9:26] » Right. And then what are we doing with the old one then?
[9:28] » We're just going to scrap it out. >> Okay.
[9:31] » And then they're going to rebuild the one that's in service right now.
[9:34] » Yeah, they'll go through doing an maintenance on it. Every uh 12 to 16
[9:39] months try to pull it and right here that's that's the thought and
[9:43] we're we're going to go on there for the
[9:47] » Sound good to you? >> Sound good to me.
[9:49] » All right. I'll make a motion we close the meeting out then.
[9:52] » Aaron, do you have anything else I'm sorry.
[9:55] » That's all right. I was going to say I don't know they could possibly next
[9:58] meeting they're trying to get a uh for the festival have a uh
[10:04] parade this year. So in doing so the town about have to apply for the permit,
[10:09] you know, and it it requires a requires a bond that we've got a bond waiver that
[10:15] we can go through and a permit to to fill out for temporary closure the road
[10:20] for that one day in October. Uh if the council agreeable on that I'd like to
[10:25] get that signed this week which make sure we got all
[10:30] little pieces and get signed and sent in.
[10:34] » I'll make a motion.
[10:35] » Make a motion that we allow the I guess permits.
[10:38] » Yeah, permits for road closure. >> To
[10:40] to continue forward getting that completed
[10:44] for the parade fix.
