Mr. Volk explained the differences in the two pieces <br />of equipment. <br />Mr. Bisel moved to accept the bid from Ruffridge- -Johnson <br />Equipment Company for the 1990 FMC Vanguard 3000 SP. Mr. <br />Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />Proposed Purchasing of City Jackets - Mr. Schumacher <br />explained that the staff has been discussing purchasing <br />jackets and sweatshirts with the City logo on them for about <br />six months. A request is being made to the Council for their <br />participation in the cost of these jackets. It was explained <br />that some cities do purchase these jackets for their <br />employees that are in the public so that they can be easily <br />identified. <br />Mayor Benson noted that the vendor is not local and asked if <br />any of the local vendors have been asked for a quotation on <br />jackets. Mr. Bisel said he would not be in favor of using <br />tax money for this type of purchase. He suggested that the <br />staff get some donations for the jackets. Mayor Benson <br />suggested that the jackets and sweatshirts could be sold to <br />the public to generate a profit. Mr. Neal suggested that one <br />be purchased and put on display. <br />No action was taken on this matter. <br />Mr. Bohjanen moved to adjourn at 9:03 P.M. Mr. Neal seconded <br />the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />These minutes were considered and approved at a regular Council meeting <br />held on November 27, 1989. <br />lyn <br />Page 9 <br />G.
