City of Centerville <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />January 13, 2021 <br /> <br />Council Member Lakso stated that it is a large amount of money, the Committee has been <br />discussing play structure needs, and questioned the majority of vehicle traffic associated with the <br />park usage as potentially the soccer fields. Administrator Statz stated that yes young youth use <br />and the cul de sac has been the parking area. She stated that she likes to take the recommendation <br />of the Committee/Commissions and that would be her basis for voting. <br /> <br />Council Member King questioned whether A-1 Contracting, (the contractor for the Downtown <br />area Street Project) had been contacted as they have paving and other smaller equipment. <br />Administrator Statz stated that they did not ask A-1 to provide a bid, the higher quote was from <br />the contractor who was working in the area already and that work would include concrete work, <br />backhoe equipment and etc. which is different than just paving. Council Member King stated that <br />he felt that maybe it was an opportunity to save money if they were addressed. <br /> <br />Council Member Mosher stated that there was quite a bit of difference in the proposals. <br />Administrator Statz stated that the second quote was almost the same as his estimate and that is <br />why the Committee recommended his estimate amount. <br /> <br />Mayor Love stated that the Council recently asked Administrator Statz what the City was receiving <br />by having him as an Engineer/City Administrator is that he immediately knew the quote was out <br />of line and that a second quote should be received. He felt that the parking spaces were needed <br />for those visiting the park rather than vehicles parking in front of homes, he felt that it was a good <br />idea a year ago and that it would be an improvement to the area. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Koski, to Approve the Quote Submitted by T.A. Shifsky and <br />Authorize the work at Acorn Creek Park for the Parking Lot and Trail Improvements. <br /> <br />Council Member King requested the inclusion of the amount ($37,696.09). Council Member <br />Koski accepted the friendly Amendment. <br /> <br />Council Member King seconded the motion with the Addition of “in the Amount of <br />$37,696.09”. A roll-call vote was taken.

Resolution 21-0XX - Adopting the 2021 List of Appointments <br /> <br />City Administrator Statz stated that the City takes this listing very seriously as there are various <br />agencies and Committees that the City and Council work with such as JPAs, etc. He stated that to <br />start, he replaced Council Member Montain with Council Member King and Council Member <br />Wilharber with Council Member Mosher. He stated that everything else remained the same as a <br />starting point.
