Council approves $37,500 fireworks contract for July 4 celebration
Summary
Bettendorf City Council unanimously approved a $37,500 purchase order to J&M Displays to provide fireworks for the city’s Fourth of July celebration, moving that item by motion and roll-call vote at the start of the June 29 special meeting.
Bettendorf City Council unanimously approved a resolution authorizing the director of parks and recreation to issue a $37,500 purchase order to J&M Displays for the July 4 fireworks display.
Staff member Decker briefed the council, saying the city has been a customer of J&M Displays for several years and presented the contract as a routine purchase needed before the holiday. Council member Baiten moved approval; a second was voiced and the clerk called the roll. The motion passed unanimously.
The contract was the first item on a two-part special meeting agenda. No questions were raised about the vendor selection or the contract amount during debate. Council adjourned the first portion of the meeting after the vote and convened a committee-of-the-whole to consider a separate annexation matter.
