l9© May 24, 1982 Mr. Schumacher asked if they had been compensated for the trees and Mr Blackbird said they would be compensated for the trees but not for the replanting.

Motion carried unanimously. 1982 SEALCOATING AND OVERLAY IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Schumacher presented the summary of the Engineer's proposal that had been drafted after the last Council meeting. There is $45,375.00 in budget cuts and $5,000.00 from the budget making a total of $50,375.00 available for this work. The seal - coating program will cost approximately $15,650.00; the bituminious overlay to be done by City crews - $11,013.00 less City labor costs - $8,719.00; the bid costs approximately - $29,170.00. Mayor Benson asked if these estiamted costs are pretty accurate or is there a possibility of lwer costs due to the lack of work at this point in time? Mr. Davidson said most of the bids are coming in at approximately 25% less than the estimates. The last four streets, $18,246.00, would be on an alternate bidding - these wouldoonly be considered if the other bids came in low enough to allow this work to be done. The total bid - $53,540.00, deleting the last four streets, would fall within the revenues. Mr. Davidson presented the plans and specifications and the schedule for advertising and the opening of the bids. Mayor Besnon asked if part of the bid could be accepted? or is that proper? Mr. Davidson said all or any part of a bid may be accepted. Mr. Reinert asked about the bid that was let als Fall - is this proper? cab the bid be carried over? or does it have to be re -bid? Mr. Hawkins said there is no specific time for accepting these bids as such, and he felt there was no problem with this bid. Mr. Reinert felt the committee should be complemented on the excellent program that had been put together for the Council's consideration. Mr. Reinert moved to accept the plans and specifications and authorize the advertisement for bids, and setting the date for the opening of the bids.
