City Clerk Alice Grimm presented an Advantage software proposal and the council approved a $5,000 prepaid contract to begin implementation planning, with staff directed to pull the budget for follow-up work.

"If the council would like to move forward that he would be able to come down and look at where to start," Alice told the council.

Councilmember Evan Casey moved to approve the $5,000 prepaid contract; Daryl May seconded and the motion carried 3-0. The clerk was assigned follow-up tasks to report back with budget details at the next meeting.
