Regulaz Council Meeting <br />8-19-02 <br />Page 9 <br />1 <br />e. <br />? <br />Mrs. Cinco, seconded by Dr. Parker, made a motion to authorize an expenditure in the amount of <br />$31,181.22 to First Energy for ancillary costs of moving electrical wires along S.O.M. Center <br />Road. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, any discussion? <br />Mr. Marquardt asked, when you say multiple funding sources does that mean that this could be <br />out of the debt? <br />Mr. Brett said yes, we are not sure if it is going to be covered or how much will be covered. <br />Mr. Marquardt asked why would it not be covered? <br />Mr. Brett said I think just in trying to figure out with utilities how much they'd cover to how <br />much would have had to have been moved. . <br />Mr. Marquardt asked, did we move this farther than we needed to? <br />Mr. Brett said I don't think so, no. <br />? Mr. Marquardt asked, why would it not be allowed? <br />Mr. Brett replied, I just haven't had it confirmed that it is going to be reimbursed. <br />Mayor Rinker said I would add, for what it's worth, I'm assuming that all utility costs are going <br />to be covered and if they try to say not then we will argue it. There is no indication that there is <br />anything wrong, it's just that when you are dealing with O.D.O.T. until it's over, it ain't over. <br />Mr. Marquardt asked why were these extra--why were these ancillary? <br />Council President Buckholtz said this came up at S.O.M. widening but I don't remember the <br />answer. <br />Mr. Brett asked Doug, any idea? <br />Mr. Metzung said I can't recall the first $31,000; that is projects that have already been done. <br />The $12,000 now is where the underground wiring is to the homes up by Wildwood; it's to tie <br />those residents back in. They have to cross and put a new transformer in the ground and then tie <br />everyone else back in. For whatever reason that is not considered part of their amount. <br />Mayor Rinker said I know what we're encountering on some of these things with utilities is they <br />are literally uncovering some of these things under the ground and they are finding either <br />something different than records had either indicated or never quite indicated and were <br />2 encountering those kinds of adjustments. That's why I say and they argue that these are things
