Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Tuesday, February 21, 2012 <br />Page 19 <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, what is the difference in dollazs? You told us what a 5 year <br />. contract is. What's the 3 yeaz? Is there a savings by doing the 5 years? <br />Mr. Metzung replied, it helps cover the costs of the toters. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated, so the money is not the issue? <br />Mr. Delguyd asked, the $979,000, that's for the fu115 years with a 3 year, 2 year renewal? <br />Mr. Metzung replied, correct. <br />Mr. Delguyd asked, so you aze talking about a difference of less than $20,000 over 5 yeazs? <br />Dr. Parker sta.ted, it's not even the difference. I'm talki.ng about the ability to come along three <br />yeazs later and renegotiate it if we desire as we have done in the past. That's good flexibility that <br />goes beyond the price. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated, I think we understand the point. <br />Mr. Metzung replied, this is the first time that we have gone short of the option. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated, so I think this does require more, in the interest of process <br />and procedure, if the Service Director says we don't have to pass this tonight and there's this <br />many questions then we shouldn't vote it. Just risk voting it out or voti.ng it in and people would <br />be unhappy, but I would just say that one more time that what I have heard is our Service <br />Director is telling us that it is kind of the way that things are going. I'm hearing that some people <br />think it's going to take up a lot of room. I don't want to give personal opinions. I think some <br />people are going to like it whatever you do. Some people are going to not like it. It's like every <br />decision we make. But to keep going on and on azound the table doesn't make sense. So with a <br />motion on the table, what would we do in terms of if we wanted to table it now, we would <br />rescind the motion? <br />Ms. Calta replied, if you had a motion on the table and you had a first and a second, that's what <br />you would do. Mary. Beth, was there a motion on the table? <br />Mrs. Betsa confirmed, motion to approve by Mrs. Mills, seconded by Mr. Marrie. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, so you would ask the person who made the motion if they <br />would li.ke to withdraw it? <br />Ms. Ca1ta replied, we could do that. Or you could take a vote and not have anyone- <br />Mrs. Mills asked, do you want to rescind that motion then, is that what you want to do? <br />Mr. Marrie replied, yes.
