MINUTES <br />City Council <br />February 10~ 1982 <br />Air Mr. Forsberg stated that he would like to table action on the purchase <br />Compressor of an air compressor for two weeks, Forsberg stated that he would like <br />to check with other cornpanies and did not like the correspondence <br />received £rom one o£ the companies stating that they could sel"1 the <br />City a new compressor at a less cost than a used compressor. <br />Mayor Hanson asked if the City had to move on the bids the City <br />has received for an air compressor. <br />Hoger Ulanzer indicated that the bids were sea].ed bids authorized <br />by the City Council but there was no publication of 'bidding. <br />Mr. Fahey stated that he was uncomfortable with putting o££ acting <br />on the bids already received. <br />Roger Glan2er stated that he has reviewed the bids and they appear <br />to be in order. The bids were in line with the speci£ications that <br />were submitted to tYze bidders, <br />Ms~. Forsberg commented that there are a lot of small businesses <br />going under and it shoul.d be possible to pick up a used air compressor <br />in this way. <br />k2oger Ulanzer informed ihe Council that due to the money that is <br />ixivested in the used compressors and with the prices that factories <br />are selling their equipment today~ it is cheaper to pick up a new <br />compressor than a used one. <br />Mr, F'ahey asked Roger GLanzer how long the prices quoted by the bidders <br />are good for. Mr. Ulanzer stated that he did not know, Glanzer also <br />in£ormed the Council that the compressor will be used as a back up <br />power supply for the City~s lift stations and the City needs a good <br />one, <br />Mr, Forsberg pointed out that the cost of the air compressor will be <br />charged against one of the improvements in the City. <br />Fahey stated that he does not want to put this off indefinitely, <br />Council discussed the possibility that the City would need a larger <br />compressor than what was bid. Mr, Glanzer did not feel the City wou7.d <br />ever have need for a larger compressor than the one presently being <br />considered. <br />Mr. Forsberg introduced the fo:ll.owing resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESULUTION N0. 82-2-8Lt -'reBLING ACTION ON THE BIDS <br />FOR AN ATR COMPRESSOR FOR TWO WEEKS <br />The £oregoing resolutiion wa~ uul.y 5econded by Mrs. Scalze. <br />pyes (5) Forsberg, Scalze, Hanson, Fahey, Narclini, <br />Nayes (0).
