Mayor Johnson replied that the shopping center people have surfaced their two entrances. Councilman Baumgartner replied there is still Long Lake Rd. and the 66 Station. I really feel that the people that use these and own the station are in a predicament. If there is anything that we can do to get those two particular drives surfaced we should do that. Councilman Shelquist stated that he agreed with Councilman Baumgartner. He questioned whether we could proceed with the project without advertising for bids? Atty. Meyers stated as long as it is less than $5,000 formal bids are not required. Eng. Bearden stated that there is considerable erosion along the ditch. Right at Long Lake Rd. it covers the culvert. This happened last Wednesday and it hasn't been cleared out yet. This may require some maintenance until the ditch banks are stabilized or whatever is done. Councilman Shelquist inquired as to whether surfacing alone would eliminate the problem and Eng. Bearden stated that it would considerably help with erosion. A roll call vote was called for. Councilman Baumgartner - nay Councilman Pickar - aye Councilman Shelquist - nay Councilman Hodges - nay Mayor Johnson - aye Motion failed MS (Baumgartner - Shelquist) that we order the matting of Long Lake Rd. and the entrance of the Long Lake 66 Station and that berming of the Long Lake Rd. mat be done so that the run off does not go into the westerly edge of the conduit and the project be done by time and material and that the remaining portions of the engineer's report be considered at a later date. Councilman Pickar asked how far before bids would be required and Atty. Meyers replied it would be up to $5,000. A roll call vote was requested. Councilman Baumgartner - aye Councilman Pickar - aye Councilman Shelquist - aye Councilman Hodges - aye Mayor Johnson - aye Motion carried Item 8 on Consent Agenda. Item 8 was to authorize Mayor Johnson to execute Change Order No. 8 of B -E Enterprises, Inc. contract for municipal building addition. This change order is a credit of $9,171.00 to the city, because the hardware allowance was greater than the actual hardware cost. It reduces the city's contract liability by a like amount.
