SPECIAL BUDGET COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS

CITY OF ATTICA

September 24, 2007

 

 

 

The Common Council for the City of Attica met on the 24th day of September at the hour of 7:00 p.m. at City Hall.  Those present:  Mr. Larry Grant, Mr. Bill Craft, Mr. Larry Askren, Mrs. Maus, Mr. Tom O’Connor and Ms. Sharon Negele. 

 

 

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

Mrs. Maus made a motion to read Ordinance 5 (2008 Budget for Appropriations and Tax Rates) for the first time and Mr. Craft seconded.  Mr. O’Connor read it in full.  Mr. Grant made a motion to adopt and Mr. Askren seconded.  A roll call was taken 4-yeas and 0-nays. 

 

NEW BUSINESS

Ms. Negele introduced Steve Egly with Sunshine Publishing.  Mr. Egly provided a demonstration on converting a codified Ordinance Book into a digitized CD.  The digitzed CD would not be copy right protected and the city would eventually be able to update their CD when necessary.  They would also provide a smaller version for Web access.  He was able to provide a quote having had earlier access to the Attica City Code book.  The total cost for the service is $4,700.  He also proposes a refresh option for $250 within a period of three years at a fixed cost of $250.  After discussion amongst the council it was agreed that at the next council meeting a decision would be made.  Ms. Negele also presented a curtain replacement option with estimated invoices on two different fabrics.  A local shop presented Ms. Negele with commercial grade bio protect fabrics that would cover 17 windows.  The fabric is washable, meets the highest hygiene requirements, permanently antibacterial and prevents the formation of odors.  The estimated cost presented was $10,363.60 and $9,939.68.    After discussion amongst the council it was agreed that the heavier fabric may be a better choice and that the proposal should be raised again at the next council meeting

      

ADJOURNMENT

There being no further business to come before the council, Mrs. Maus made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Askren, all ayes.
