The Gadsden City Council adopted a resolution authorizing an agreement with Ice Bumper Cars International LLC to purchase 12 bumper-car premium-plus packages for special events. Councilwoman Latham presented the resolution from the legal department and asked that it be considered immediately; the council granted consent and adopted the resolution by voice vote.
On the record the legal presenter read several figures that were inconsistent in the transcript: one passage stated the item was "budgeted for 40,047 thousand 600," while another line referenced "87,600 thousand dollars" in the same sentence. Because those figures are inconsistent and appear garbled in the transcript, the precise contract amount is not specified in the meeting minutes excerpt. The adopted resolution authorizes the mayor to execute an agreement with Ice Bumper Cars International LLC; the full contract amount and the council-approved budget line should be confirmed in the official adopted resolution and contract file.
The transcript includes light-hearted commentary about choosing bumper cars "for those of us who refuse to get on ice skates"; this remark was offered by the legal presenter and not part of the contract terms. The resolution was adopted; the transcript does not specify delivery dates, funding source, or which city department will manage the equipment.
