-14- Mr. Childs had posed three different ways in which the restaurant portion could be provided, and he said a talk with Mr. Nelson that day had convinced him there would be some real advantages to construct the kitchen while the bar is torn up. He also said the Liquor Manager had indicated he was confident he could find somebody to run the restaurant even though the Mannings had said they were no longer interested. Councilmember Enrooth said just getting someone to run the restaurant would probably be no problem, but getting someone who is really good might be. The Manager told Councilmember Makowske it would be very difficult to predict what effect the sale of wine in grocery stores would have on the new liquor store if it ever came about. But, Mr. Nelson foresees a greater impact if strong beer is permitted to be sold in grocery stores or places where 3. 2 beer is now allowed. The Mayor agreed, saying the City would lose all control over those sales with the new legislation. Mr. Childs suggested another way to look at the issue would be to compare the cost of the new liquor space at $6.00 per square foot for the next ten years with what the City would have to pay for the same amount of space at Apache for the same period. He indicated the City would naturally close the Apache operation first if these outside sales became • realities. Councilmember Enrooth commented that he perceived the new building had an intrinsic value to the City in any case. Council Action Motion by Enrooth, seconded by Sundland to accept the low bid of $288, 500 and to award the contract for the construction of the new off-sale liquor store to Fulco Construction, on terms acceptable to the City. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Childs reported the City had saved over $1,000 by splitting out the costs of the bar furniture and rebidding them, even though Monarch Company had been the only one to submit a bid. Motion by Makowske, seconded by Enrooth to accept the low bid of $17 , 866 and award the contract for the bar furniture for the Stonehouse remodeling project to PYA/Monarch, Inc. Motion carried unanimously.
