There being no other corrections the minutes were ordered approved as read. Mayor Woodard then called for reading of the Minutes of the Meeting of October 18, 1963, which Minutes were then read and upon call for corrections or omissions, none being offerred, the Minutes were ordered approved as read.: Mayor Woodard: We now have for adoption Traffic Ordinance number 63-15 which was read in full and by title at our meeting of October 18, 1963• To enact this Ordinance now it will be necessary for the Recorder to read the Ordinance by title' only. (Recorder then read Ordinance 63-15 by title only.) Councilman Bergmann: I move we enact Ordinance number 63-15. Motion seconded by Councilman Klock. Upon call for vote motion unanimously approved, all Councilmen voting in the affirmative, all Council. members being present. Mayor Woodard I have a letter from Stevens and Thompson regarding the survey on Ash Street (reading letter); if it will be all right with the Council I will talk to Mr. Willock this week. Mayor Woodard: There has been a .petition handed to us in regard to .Greenburg Road; this specifically refers to Lincoln Avenue approach onto Greenburg Road. They lwant 'to know what we can do about fixing the bad bump. (Council members discussed this condition.) After discussion Councilman Cooper 'stated, I believe the petition should be answered and suggest a stop ;sign should be put -up. At the time the :final seal-kote is put on;we could have the County - ramp the approach which would solve this difficulty. Mayor Woodard: The Library Committee asked about the back room and since this partition is a false partition the Library Board wanted to know if we couldn't take it down, it would give them daylight in the whole 'room. It is doing no good as 'far as the partition is concerned. Councilman Klock: It is a non-bearing wall, put there as a' support for another room. The wiring change would be 'a maximum of $25.00,; actually it is not much' of a ;job, you would' use some conduit rather than flex cable. I 'would say '$30.00 will cover it and the whole, ,job with the removal of the partition would :be somewhere in the neighborhood of $50.00. Mayor Woodard: We would use that door between the Council Chambers so we would not lose that part of it. Councilman` Bergmann: I move the necessary alterations be made for?the Library .'facilities. Motion' seconded by Councilman Cooper. Upon call for vote motion Was unanimously,approved, Council voting ; 10-28-63 Page 1. In the affirmative, all members being present. Mayor Woodard: Our next item is the Library Ordinance number 63-16. The Recorder will please read it in full and by title. (Recorder then read Ordinance in full and by title only.) Councilman Cooper: I move we adopt Ordinance number 63-16. Motion seconded by Councilman Bergmann and upon call for vote was unanimously approved by Council. Mayor Woodard: Next on the agenda is the matter of the radio. There was lengthy discussion about the radio equipment during which Councilman Cooper moved that all these bids be thrown out and we purchase the Motorola for $819.00 installed. There was no second to this motion. During the course of the discussion Mayor Woodard also suggested the best thing is to throw these bids all out, that we draw up specifications and solicit new bids finding out from the Office of Civilian Defense what unit they will give us at the fifty percent cost. We should find out exactly what will pass their requirements so that we can pick out a set that will pass and where it will only cost us half, I think that is well worth working for. Following the discussion Councilman Klock moved that we accept the lowest bid as received according to our specifications pro- 1 viding that that set meets the Civilian Defense requirements. This motion was, seconded by Councilman Bergmann but following discussion on the question both the seconder and maker withdrew the motion. Councilman Klock re-phrased his motion to read; In the lightofthe bid submitted will then make a motion that we purchase Tarbell Communication Company's set including the antenna for $860.00 subject to its meeting the Office of Civilian Defense requirements. Councilman Bergmann seconded the motion. Upon roll call of vote the following was tabulated: Councilmen Bergmann, Johnson, Klock and Mayor Woodard voting AYE; Councilman Cooper voting NO. Mayor Woodard: I request permission from the Council to cancel the 'charge' of $315.11 on assessment against SuburbanPropertiesas this was an error In placing this assessment on the;roll'as the cost was completely paid prior to the preparation of the ' lien docket assessment charge'. Engineer Carter made the error In,placingthis on the books:' Councilman Klock: I make a motion we cancel the assessment of $315.11 in light,of the explanation. Motion seconded by Councilman Cooper. Upon call for vote motion was unanimously approved, ` Council voting in the affirmative, all members being present. Mayor Woodard: On the police working .schedule;;I think it will be nice for us to get together in a special executive meeting and ;we will work up what we require of the policeman. -There will be no discussion on it at this time. I think we should do this at the earliest possible date we can get .together. Attorney Anderson: I think you should set a time for a hearing after five (5) publications in the paper on the Albertson?s street vacation. The first time you could hear it would probably beat your regular meeting on December 9, 1963 so I suggest the hearing be set for December 9th. Attorney Anderson: I have the contract with Bunyard and Pettit, you accepted their bid,r this is the lcontract I worked -_up. We should have a motion for the Mayor and Recorder to execute this 10-28-63 - 'Page 2'. contract. Councilman Bergmann I move we authorize the Mayor and Recorder to execute the contract.
