Commission approves sweeper, lease termination, licenses and cleanup; sets hearings
Summary
The Goodland City Commission approved a package of formal actions including purchase of a street sweeper, termination of an airport hangar lease, a new cereal malt beverage license for the Rec Room, and a nuisance-property cleanup; it also set a public hearing on two Goodland Energy Center lots and approved an annual accounting-waiver resolution.
The Goodland City Commission on a series of motions approved multiple routine but consequential actions, including a $265,158 low bid to replace a street sweeper, a mutual termination of an airport hangar lease, issuance of a cereal malt beverage license for a new business at 1222 Main Street, and a contract for exterior cleanup at a nuisance property.
The purchase of a Global M3 street sweeper from Barry Tractor for $265,158 was approved after staff described bids from multiple manufacturers and recommended the low bidder. A motion to approve the purchase was made and seconded; commissioners confirmed the purchase was budgeted (approximately $322,000 in the budget line) and approved the motion by roll call.
Staff told the commission that Taylor Scott of Scott’s Flying Service had not progressed on required hangar plans within the originally agreed timeline; Scott later signed a mutual termination of the lease. The commission voted to approve the mutual termination.
Applicants Neil Watson and Lisonbee Griffith attended to request a cereal malt beverage (CMB) license for on-premises consumption at the Rec Room, 1222 Main Street. Staff reported that building and fire inspections and a police background check had been completed. The commission moved, seconded and approved the initial license application.
For the nuisance property at 1526 Caldwell Avenue, staff presented multiple bids and the commission approved an exterior cleanup bid from S and M Repair for $1,000. The motion passed on roll call.
Separately, the commission approved Resolution 16-37 to set a public hearing on July 1 at 5:00 p.m. for petitions to de-annex Lots 17 and 18 in the Goodland Energy Center. The commission also approved Resolution 16-36, the annual waiver permitting the city to prepare financial statements on a cash basis as allowed under state statute.
The actions were handled through standard motions and roll-call votes with no recorded dissent during the meeting. The city manager and staff confirmed planned funding sources and inspection checks where applicable. The commission adjourned at the end of the agenda.
