Archie aldermen approve waterline and generator contracts; remove name from city bank accounts
Summary
At its Oct. 14 meeting the Archie Board of Aldermen voted unanimously to remove a former employee’s name from city bank accounts, award a waterline replacement contract, and provisionally accept a generator bid pending warranty confirmation.
The Archie Board of Aldermen voted Oct. 14 to remove Dylan Epperts’ name from all city bank accounts and approved two procurement actions for the city’s water system.
The board approved the motion to remove Dylan Epperts from the city’s bank accounts; the vote was recorded as Lough — yes, Saltee — yes, Houchen — yes and Kendrick — yes. No mover or seconder is recorded in the meeting transcript for this item.
In a separate vote the board awarded the bid for waterline replacement at Chestnut and Jefferson streets to Stark Boring in the amount stated in the bid packet ($58,850.00). The motion passed with the same four recorded yes votes.
The board also considered two bids for a new 60 kW generator at the Water Treatment Plant from Smart Power and CM Mose. The aldermen accepted the Smart Power bid contingent on verification that Smart Power’s warranty matches the warranty offered by CM Mose. City staff indicated that Rick Blundett will check the warranty details before the purchase is finalized. The vote on the contingent acceptance was recorded as Lough — yes, Sattee — yes, Houchen — yes, Kendrick — yes.
Earlier in the meeting Alderman Kendrick moved to approve the September minutes; Alderman Lough seconded and that motion passed with the same recorded four yes votes. The board adjourned at 8:41 p.m. after a motion by Alderman Kendrick and a second by Alderman Lough.
Next steps identified in the meeting record include verification of the generator warranty by staff before the Smart Power purchase is finalized, and the administrative action to remove the named person from city bank accounts.
