Linn Valley council approves minutes with $1,500 cap for council computers
Summary
The council approved Aug. 26 minutes with an amendment clarifying council computers cost $216 each and that total purchases would not exceed $1,500. The motion carried after a second and voice vote.
The Linn Valley City Council on Sept. 9 approved its Aug. 26 meeting minutes with a clarification about the council's planned computer purchases. The minutes were amended to state the unit price was $216 per computer and that the total expenditure for council devices would not exceed $1,500; a motion to approve the amended minutes was moved and seconded and passed by voice vote.
Mayor Louis Donaldson addressed recent social-media confusion about the amount, saying the expenditure “was not $15,000. It was not $5,000. It was $216 per computer and not $1,500” and that legal review would precede any purchase. The council did not adopt a purchase contract at the meeting; the minutes’ amendment records the cap and the unit price for future reference.
