7/24/72 to about 450.00; the rest was being requisitioned and had not been done. It was noted that it would be difficult to estimate the labor on repair before even taking it apart to see what was needed, the only way to get an exact labor cost would be to requisition it after the work was done. Mr. Jaworski felt there was no point in keeping separate records on the vehicles if everything was to put on the requisition. Mr. Jaworski moved to approve all the requisitions. Mr. Marier hased how he could do so when one requisition was over $500.00 Mr. Jaworski said that one was from International Harvestor and all dealers in hte area get their items from the same warehouse at the same price. There is only one mower left so we must hurry if we want it or else hire someone to cut the weeds; he felt it would pay for itself in a few years. Mr. Locher checked the statutes which say that we should get 2 or more bids on items over `500.00 "whereever Practicable ", noting that the statute is pretty loose. Glenn Rehbein asked how much money the Council was talking about in fixing Peltier and Holly which are Mr. Marier's pet projects, that the Council has no objections to doing those jobs which may involve quite a bit of legal fees, and then they gripe about a s50 brake job. He hased how much the legal fees are on Peltier; Mr. Locher hadn't billed for it yet. Mr. Marier stated that Holly, Peltier, Pine and all other streets in this year's program were submitted thru the Liaison. Mr. Jaworski noted that one reason those two are mentioned frequently is that they have been before the Council for the last 3 or 4 years; he is glad to be getting rid of them. Glenn felt we should let the people on Holly pay for the work, the Council is penny ante on little items, but doesn't question spending $300 or 51000 for legal fees. There was more discussion. Mr. Jaworski moved to change the motion to approve requisitions No. 107 through No. 120, but holding the last one, No. 121. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Carried.
