Mounds View City Council January 13, 2003 <br />Regular Meeting Page 6 <br />Council Member Stigney commented that he did not understand how the warranty could be <br />voided because the equipment has a manufacturer's warranty. <br />Mr. Bradley indicated it would still be the same system connected through the main system and <br />then back to the banquet center. <br />Council Member Stigney commented that the equipment would have a manufacturer's warranty <br />and, as long as the City has the manufacturer or an authorized service center do the work, it <br />should not void the warranty. <br />Mayor Linke indicated that since the proposal is to tie into the existing system, the original <br />person could say you have touched the system and I will not provide a warranty. <br />Council Member Stigney indicated he did not understand the proposed system. He then said that <br />he is concerned that there is no breakdown of the $5,186.44 and he would like to see a <br />breakdown and other bids for comparison. <br />Mr. Bradley indicated his goal was to try and fix the audio system that is over there and all he did <br />was call the supplier to ensure the warranty was not compromised. <br />Council Member Gunn asked if the warranty covers the actual wiring of the whole system and <br />the existing box. <br />Mr. Bradley said yes. <br />Finance Director Hansen commented that having the same contractor install the upgraded <br />components would save the City time and money in the long run trying to enforce a warranty <br />issue between the contractors. <br />Council Member Stigney asked why the microphones were not covered by warranty. <br />Mayor Linke explained that the warranty stops at the wall. <br />Council Member Stigney asked how the banquet center could charge someone for the CD and <br />then prevent them from using the cassette if it is one unit. <br />Mr. Bradley explained that clients would not have access to the components that would be <br />handled by the banquet center staff. <br />Mayor Linke asked whether the quote included tax. <br />Mr. Bradley indicated he would look into whether tax was included in the quote. <br />Mayor Linke indicated he would like a breakdown of the $5,200 and whether it includes tax as <br />well as the cost for parts and labors with an estimated number of hours. <br />
