Regular Council Meeting <br />12-18-00 <br />Page 6 <br />Dr. Parker said the Finance Committee discussed this and it comes out to about $500/month and <br />they have a few calls a month where they have to come out. As opposed to not having a contract <br />and having to call someone out, Dr. Parker said he thinks it would be somewhat more expensive <br />to do it that way in the long run. <br />Mr. Brett said this allows regular computers to be the terminal emulators for LEADS and CRIS. <br />Chief Stevens said the hardware is ours but we must maintain it. It has been upgraded several <br />times. Depending on where the computer glitch occurs when it happens, it could be in a very <br />critical area which would necessitate an emergency call in. The service fee and hourly rate of a <br />repairman can add up quickly. This is not a bad insurance premium against those kinds of <br />problems. <br />Council President Marquardt asked if there was any further discussion. <br />There were no comments. <br />• A motion to authorize an expenditure in an amount not to exceed $5,000 for catering of <br />the 2001 Appreciation Dinner <br />Mr. Ilacqua questioned if the amount is correct. <br />Mrs. Roman said we don't know the exact number of people attending so we are requesting a <br />higher number. It~is based on a per person rate. <br />Mr. Buckholtz, seconded by Mrs. Cinco, made a motion to authorize an expenditure in an <br />amount not to exceed $5,000 for catering of the 2001 Appreciation Dinner. <br />Dr. Parker asked if we have to guarantee a minimum number of people. He also questioned the <br />cost per person, if it includes decorations and if it is in line with what we have paid in the past. <br />Mrs. Roman said we do not have to guarantee a specific number of people--we estimate between <br />100 and 120 will attend. There could be as many as 150. The cost is $28.50 per person which <br />includes table linens and china. It does not cover the flowers. One of the Activities Committee <br />members volunteers to decorate the flowers [we pay for the materials.] This is a lower cost than <br />we have paid previously. <br />Council President Marquardt asked if there was any further discussion. <br />There were no comments. <br />Roll Call: AYES: All <br />NAYS: None <br />Motion Carried <br />Expenditure Authorized <br />[~ <br />1 <br /> <br />
