Council tables decision on bulk‑water station upgrade pending more information on internet‑based credit‑card system
Summary
After reviewing quotes from Syntech/Fuelmaster, council tabled a proposed upgrade to the bulk‑water station that would replace a phone‑line credit‑card connection with full internet access; staff will return with more data on sales volume and processing fees.
City Superintendent Blaine Medina presented quotes from Syntech/Fuelmaster to upgrade the city's bulk‑water station to an internet‑based system for credit‑card processing, eliminating the current phone‑line setup. Medina explained the upgrade is needed so the station can send transaction data to the credit‑card processor via internet rather than relying on a phone connection. Council discussed how much bulk water is sold, pricing and the fees charged by the credit‑card company and agreed to table the item until staff can gather additional information.
No contract or purchase was authorized at the meeting; the council requested more information before making a funding or procurement decision.
