This project consists of the construction of a new wastewater treatment plant to replace the City's aging lagoon treatment system. The Bid Opening for the Project was held on September 30, 2021, resulting in two Bids. Each of the Bids exceeded the total funds available for the project by a significant amount. In addition, the apparent low Bid contained a discrepancy in its Disadvantaged Business Enterprise documents that make the Bid ineligible for concurrence from our funding agency. Therefore, we have no choice but to recommend rejecting all Bids received for the project.  

Suggested Motion: I move to reject all Bids for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Replacement Project.

The bid opening was held on November 10, 2021 resulting in only one bid from JS Construction in the amount of $70,000.00. The bid package included a sketch of the proposed development, a bid bond and a project schedule. The project as proposed would be for 29 single family residential lots.

Suggested Motion 1: I move to authorize City staff to prepare a Development Agreement for the sale of Lincoln School Addition Tracts B & C with JS Construction.  

Suggestion Motion 2: I move to reject the bid for the sale of Lincoln School Addition Tracts B & C and authorize City staff to re-advertise the proposed sale at a later date.

The renewal of an equipment maintenance agreement and software agreement are necessary to keep reading water meters with our current system. This agreement comes up on an annual basis. The equipment covered consists of mobile and fixed meter reading assets. The software provides cloud storage and meter reading software from Neptune. Core and Main are the authorized Neptune resellers of these products for this area. 

Suggested Motion:  I move to approve the equipment maintenance agreement and software subscription with Core and Main for the water meter reading equipment and software, pending legal approval.  

Suggested Motion: I move to approve the horse corral lease agreement with LisaBeth & Kolby Magee for corrals #72 & #73.

Suggested Motion:  I move to approve the stock contract with 7C Buckers Rodeo for the Overland Stage Stampede Rodeo, in the amount of $10,000 per year for 2022 and 2023, the Governing Body hereby finding that the commitment of 7C Buckers to provide the services specified for the term of years specified has been determined to constitute a significant benefit and advantage to the City and the Public, in that such services are not readily or economically available to the City in the absence of an extended term contract.
