i Safety and Service Committee Meeting Minutes December 5, 2005 Page 3 Mr. Marcie explained that she had X-treme last year as an independent. She indicated they were basically great. Mr. Marcie thinks Doug has a point. We can't let these people go high and dry. Chief Dearden added it is a no-win situation. When you are providing contractors with 200 residents, there is no way they are going to do it. Lieutenant Shrefler confirmed that now when he gets a call for service, they get charged double. They had the opportunity to make a selection earlier in the year. Companies are already full. It will be hard to fmd someone else. You are maxed out. i Mrs. Mills stated that X-treme is assigned to her. He came late on Thanksgiving. He was there this morning. They always come after everyone has gone to work and that is a little bit aggravating. Mr. Marcie agreed. He was not happy with A&G last year, but he did not want to make an issue out of it and said nothing. When it started again this year, he did not care what it cost him, he opted out. Mr. Metzung stated that the trucks have 50 drives. With heavy snow, that is hard. Chief Dearden indicated that that is just what they are getting from Mayfield Village. Mr. Metzung indicated that is a lot of driveways. Mrs. Betsa agreed, but also said that she would have let it go if it was just due to the Friday storm, but when people are still calling today indicating their driveways have not been done since Friday, that is inexcusable. They could not get them done over the weekend? Mr. Marcie stated that when you have a contract, it does not matter if you have to do it Saturday or Sunday, tough luck, that's your job. Lieutenant Shrefler indicated that twice a day he plows. Mrs. Betsa pointed out that the specifications clearly define twice a day before 7:00 a.m. and before 5:00 p.m. Lieutenant Shrefler asked how they get paid. Mrs. Betsa.responded, five times during the season. Lieutenant Shrefler added that you have some control over it. Mrs. Betsa indicated that the letter being sent explains that some funds may need to be withheld. F~ANiCE ~~ . . ^ URS Professional Services for Period Ending 11/18/05 in the amount of $42,141.86.
