Mounds View City Council January 13, 2003 <br />Regular Meeting Page 6 <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney commented that he did not understand how the warranty could be 1 <br />voided because the equipment has a manufacturer’s warranty. 2 <br /> 3 <br />Mr. Bradley indicated it would still be the same system connected through the main system and 4 <br />then back to the banquet center. 5 <br /> 6 <br />Council Member Stigney commented that the equipment would have a manufacturer’s warranty 7 <br />and, as long as the City has the manufacturer or an authorized service center do the work, it 8 <br />should not void the warranty. 9 <br /> 10 <br />Mayor Linke indicated that since the proposal is to tie into the existing system, the original 11 <br />person could say you have touched the system and I will not provide a warranty. 12 <br /> 13 <br />Council Member Stigney indicated he did not understand the proposed system. He then said that 14 <br />he is concerned that there is no breakdown of the $5,186.44 and he would like to see a 15 <br />breakdown and other bids for comparison. 16 <br /> 17 <br />Mr. Bradley indicated his goal was to try and fix the audio system that is over there and all he did 18 <br />was call the supplier to ensure the warranty was not compromised. 19 <br /> 20 <br />Council Member Gunn asked if the warranty covers the actual wiring of the whole system and 21 <br />the existing box. 22 <br /> 23 <br />Mr. Bradley said yes. 24 <br /> 25 <br />Finance Director Hansen commented that having the same contractor install the upgraded 26 <br />components would save the City time and money in the long run trying to enforce a warranty 27 <br />issue between the contractors. 28 <br /> 29 <br />Council Member Stigney asked why the microphones were not covered by warranty. 30 <br /> 31 <br />Mayor Linke explained that the warranty stops at the wall. 32 <br /> 33 <br />Council Member Stigney asked how the banquet center could charge someone for the CD and 34 <br />then prevent them from using the cassette if it is one unit. 35 <br /> 36 <br />Mr. Bradley explained that clients would not have access to the components that would be 37 <br />handled by the banquet center staff. 38 <br /> 39 <br />Mayor Linke asked whether the quote included tax. 40 <br /> 41 <br />Mr. Bradley indicated he would look into whether tax was included in the quote. 42 <br /> 43 <br />Mayor Linke indicated he would like a breakdown of the $5,200 and whether it includes tax as 44 <br />well as the cost for parts and labors with an estimated number of hours. 45
