whereas the city of selma desires to
[8:30] execute the purchase of labor and
materials to make repairs
[8:34] uh to the bleachers of section sections
f g h i and j
[8:40] of memorial stadium located at 180
west dallas avenue south alabama 36701
[8:47] i paused here to make uh one observation
a technical one
[8:51] uh when this was originally requested we
talked about 50
[8:54] but it is not a 50 division so i wanted
to make that clear
[8:58] that this is not an even equal 50 divide
between two
[9:02] uh two projects but it is actually by
section
[9:05] uh whereas the cost to procure labor
materials for the public works projects
[9:11] shall not
exceed 50 000 and does not require
[9:14] advertising or sealed bids in accordance
with alabama code
[9:18] title 39 public works 3922
whereas a purchase order in an amount
[9:24] not to exceed 24
000 shall be uh processed for labor to
[9:28] remove and replace home seating area
identify areas identified above
[9:34] for parks and recreation budget line
item 1.6600.51850
[9:42] repairs and maintenance other and
whereas a purchase order in the amount
[9:46] not to exceed 24 six dollars and
eighty cents shall be uh processed
[9:54] uh for materials to replace home seating
areas identified above
[9:58] for park and recreation budget line item
numbers uh 1.6
[10:07] fixed assets over five thousand dollars
now therefore being resolved
[10:11] by the city council of the city of
southern alabama that mayor james
[10:14] perkins junior and his capacity is mayor
it's hereby authorized
[10:18] to take any and all further actions
necessary to carry out the intent and
[10:21] purposes
of this resolution on behalf of the city
[10:24] of selma
i ask for councils favorable
[10:27] considerations you have
attached to your drafts for the
[10:30] resolution a copy of the estimates for
the material
[10:34] uh from a local contractor in fact
and also a copy of the labor
[10:41] costs also from a local country
[10:51] um so we're gonna be replacing the
bleachers
[10:55] and what else within this
fifty thousand dollars that we'll be
[11:00] doing besides the bleachers
that's it we're actually working on the
[11:04] on the uh
stadium portion where we can actually
[11:08] have people attending a game
that's that's that's a critical piece of
[11:12] getting the stadium ready
uh for august for the august football
[11:16] season okay
so for the office football season we're
[11:20] gonna have the bleachers which
gotta remote are gonna be safe for the
[11:23] people to sit in okay with the football
field
[11:25] we good with the field yes we will be
fine okay no
[11:29] no other questions thank you yeah um
i know the boys number 12
[11:35] treat them you don't have to or they
already don't have a prank
[11:40] awesome good this
this is from a local company i'm not
[11:46] expecting that
that is correct it's a plastic super
[11:48] wood python
with no wood in it
[11:54] that's correct yeah decorators this is
that
[11:57] corrugated board right uh you can't
break it with a sledgehammer right here
[12:04] made right hand side
[12:08] any other questions attorney
i just have a statement i want to make
[12:14] sure
if we if we do this uh in
[12:19] stages at what point
if we decide to do the second half we'll
[12:24] have to bid that out correct
if we if we move this project up if we
[12:28] decide to do
more my understanding is that if if any
[12:32] of the work
in sequence totals more than fifty
[12:35] thousand dollars yes it would have to be
[12:42] the time range i'm not completely sure
about but the question is is what's the
[12:47] intent
and your question i believe is aimed at
[12:50] whether or not
there's an effort to skirt the video and
[12:52] i say no i don't think there's an effort
to do that
[12:57] i think i think we're definitely trying
to stay under business i hear you i hear
[13:00] i hear i hear you and that's my point
that's my point
[13:04] that the work is being done uh the way
it's been done
[13:08] to avoid uh you know that all right all
right
[13:12] go ahead um also i i see there
you know we have a lot of concerned
[13:16] citizens that want to make sure
the stadium gets what his need is at
[13:21] some point that maybe we can do a
resolution where we can have volunteers
[13:24] to come
and volunteer to get some parts of it
[13:27] done with dr
city having expense on it because we got
[13:31] citizens that's ready to help with it
that does not require resolution that
[13:35] just requires touching base with the
recreation director
[13:38] it's just like any other volunteer in
the community you want to come out and
[13:41] help we'll be glad to
accept your help
[13:52] but what we are planning to do is to
have a couple of clean up days
[13:56] prior to like kind of pregame get ready
for
[14:00] the season so we are planning to do that
as we get closer
[14:03] to the august date so just look for some
information and we'll make sure to put
[14:08] that out
make sure the council knows and make
[14:10] sure our citizens know so we'll put that
out on all our social media channels
[14:14] and any other outlets and so we will
have
[14:18] organized clean up dates where we are
certain
[14:21] various things that we will definitely
need to make sure that we
[14:24] have done prior to accepting patrons in
for
[14:28] games okay thank you very much for
coming up with a solution
[14:35] michael and councilwoman james one of
the things i was asked to do
[14:41] last session was to prepare a resolution
for volunteerism for a specific
[14:48] individual
my response to that was and i think
[14:51] councilwoman
randolph echo his concern
[14:56] that we do for what we do for one we do
for all
[14:59] right so i will we'll be presenting you
a resolution for volunteerism period
[15:04] thank you along with what you asked me
to do can we include
[15:07] a policy that is
[15:24] what is the budget about seoul second
i let the record show councilman
[15:30] randolph moon and
councilman johnson
[15:36] president young council of marvel
councilmember christie
[15:40] thomas council pro tem carmichael
councilwoman james yes councillor
[15:45] randolph
yes councilman jemison yes councilwoman
[15:49] jamie thomas councilman johnson yes
[16:05] if someone volunteered to support
honestly that they get hurt
[16:10] that we want to make sure that we're not
liable and they get hurt yeah they get
[16:13] worried about triple h
[16:18] right and that harkens back to what
councilman randolph was asking and what
[16:22] i suggested
about a policy for all volunteerism
[16:26] not just for one person because you're
not going to just you're not going to
[16:30] ever have one person volunteering
if anyone on city property
[16:36] is injured or hurt there is always a
question of liability
[16:40] not necessarily proof of liability and
a whole homeless agreement an
[16:45] identification agreement is also
what you want people signing off on who
[16:50] volunteered
so that they don't try to hold the city
[16:53] locker for any
injury of their own so yes any any
[16:59] resolution to that effect should
definitely include
[17:02] and the policy which will be recommended
to this body
[17:06] will include home homeless agreement and
identification
[17:09] uh council uh pro tem just one
announcement relating to this what i
[17:13] want to do well two one i want to thank
you
[17:16] uh thank you councilman jemison
councilwoman james
[17:19] councilman randolph councilman johnson
for actually
[17:23] uh taking time to be at this meeting so
that we could take care of this
[17:26] important business the second thing
is that i have approached the summer
[17:30] city school system about partnering with
us
[17:33] on this project we are awaiting a
decision from them
[17:37] but it may be that we won't have to do
the second portion of this thank you
[17:50] thank you
