The commission also authorized final payments totaling $251,212.35 to dB Integrations for audio/visual installation at Buford City Stadium, with those final payments noted as subject to approval by the City Manager. In a separate motion the commission authorized payment #1 in the amount of $145,447.38 to W. L. Griffin Company, LLC for the N. Bogan Road at Thompson Mill Road gas relocation project. All motions passed unanimously (Ayes 3 Nays 0).

The minutes record that City Manager Mr. Kerlin presented the City Manager's Report and Mr. Jay presented the City Attorney's Report before adjournment. The dB Integrations final‑payment authorization is explicitly conditioned on City Manager approval in the minutes; staff files should be consulted for payment schedules, retainage and final acceptance documentation.
