John Day Council approves agenda, consent items and Gaslin Accounting contract extension
Summary
Councilors unanimously approved the amended agenda, the consent agenda and a three-year extension with optional renewals for Gaslin Accounting; Councilor Labhart expressed concern the contract cap could still be exceeded.
At its Feb. 10 meeting the John Day City Council unanimously approved several procedural and consent items and a contract amendment for the city's accounting services.
Councilor Meloni Cochran moved to approve the meeting agenda as amended; Councilor Vern Pifer seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Councilor Bradley Hale later moved to approve the consent agenda, seconded by Cochran; that motion also passed unanimously.
City Manager Melissa Bethel presented an amendment to extend the contract with Gaslin Accounting for three years with two optional one-year extensions and an annual not-to-exceed cap. Councilor Chris Labhart said he supported the extension but expressed concern the cap might still be exceeded; Bethel said the cap was included to avoid a future budget amendment. Councilor Hale moved to approve the contract amendment; Councilor Ron Phillips seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
