Several questions were brought out with regard to the original bid 4
I,by Lage, Evers, Kingsolver, & Company of $7 , 950. 00. The concern of

the Committee in general was why, when Mr. Evers' firm discovered !i

;:audit is finished. Mr. Evers responded by saying that when his firm; Consent
'ibid originally they felt the audit would run around $10, 000. 00 and Agenda
,'they knew they would be writing off around $2, 000. 00 by submitting
$7,950. 00. When his firm ended up with a total of around $19, 000. 00,
f elt to be fair with the City as well as the firm, they would Finance
!submit a bill of $16, 000. 00. Dr. Brant stated that perhaps we Committee
pshould consider some kind of an increase because the City did delay Meeting
IMr. Evers from starting when he could have due to the fraud audit Minutes
baby Mr. Hickey' s firm and the firm did get caught with the State
Auditor coming in and delaying them. Howeyer, he did not
g y get back
us and inform us that he was running into a problem. In light of
;;that , perhaps we should not pay the full amount the firms is asking
ii for. Councilman Whitecotton then made the motion to pay Lage, Evers ,
Kingsolver & Company the $16, 000. 00 as they requested. Motion
'seconded by Councilman Kliegel . After a discussion, Councilman
• Prenger offered a substitute motion that the City pay Lage , Evers ,
I:Kingsolver & Company a sum of $14 , 000. 00 for the two-year audit.

'as follows :
!! Councilmen voting Aye: Crader, Prenger, Hequembourg,
Borgmeyer, Brant and Backers.

he next item on the agenda was a request from the Cole County
hDental and Eye Program. Mr. G.M. Threlkeld, Chairman of the Board
for that program, presented the amount the City did contribute--
I$125.00 per month--and that an increase of $25. 00 per month, which
`. ;started the first of June, brought the City' s total contribution to
jan amount of $1 ,675. 00 in 1979. It was also indicated that sometime
pin the Spring this increase of $25. 00 had been requested retroactive
,for the year to bring the City ' s total to $1 , 800. 00. In clarifica-
,tion, it was stated that the Finance Committee does not make retro- Consent

''A discussion was then had with regard to whether the Programmuld

in the monthly payment . Councilman Hequembourg then moved that we

• 'Street lighting. Mr. Scott stated Mr. Benton had talked with him 0
• ;about whether or not there could be any change in the street lighting .f!,

`" !City, and it was discussed at the last Council meeting. At one
. !;time this area was zoned duplex and for that reason there are

: p
loxes in there now
', Nr. Benton said he thought there were two alternatives - advertise
jthe property as is, take bids on it that way , or request the Plann- 'A
1�ing and Zoning Commission to review and consider the proposal !'
E` h4before you incorporate several blocks of rezoning rather than the
• 4'five city blocks. I would like for this Committee to make the
decision if they would like to request a change in zoning or
"advertise the sale of property as it is zoned.
' Councilman Gordon made the motion that we request the Planning and
(',Zoning Commission to rezone the property to RD. The motion seconded
!by Councilman Pronger. Councilman Iorgmoyer stated he would have td;
!oppose this, he felt that if the City has any property for sale it
'should be advertised and sold as it is zoned and lot the purchaser
+prosent the rezoning.
iMr. Benton stated he did not fool the Council should make a '
!recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission to rezone the
!five lots - that would be spot zoning - i. r there is a request he
' mould hope it would include the entire area.
After .further discussion Councilman Gordon amended his motion - that
we request; the Planning and Zoning Conun.i mi Lon to rov i ew the zoning
in this area and give us their recommendations as to what is the
best use of the property. Motion seconded by Councilman Prenger,

5. Report on Nick' s Homestead Sewer. Mr. Mike Bates explained that
during the past several years they have been working on two sewer
!projects - one in Indian Hills and the other Nick' s Homestead. At i'
Ithis time we have reached the point where we should meet with the
!people and discuss the matter of charges for the sewers. We
established a rate of twelve hundred dollars in the Indian Hills ;;
`area, per lot served, on the basis that this had been promised for
several years. At this point we would need some direction from the
Committee as to how to handle the Nick; s Homestead Sewer. This
!request was made some time ago but no action taken. At the next

areas left, taking into consideration what the property owner would

:Districts that have petitioned the City, at basically the same ..
'figure, the cost per property owner, as we have in the past - the
(Districts we have on file now or which file prior to January 1 ,
l981. Councilman Gordon seconded the motion and it carried.
'6. Report on Litter Ordinance. Mr. Sam Cook discussed the ,{
Ordinance. Mr. Tell Neff , Tom Heetem a nd Judge Finch also aided

the cooperation of the merchants and property owners and citizens
? to help in keeping the City clean, and not littering themselves.
The Downtown Merchants Association is in complete agreement with the.
°g :'Ordinance in its present form. There has been much work gone into
this r- it is not perfect but a number of people have worked a
:number of years and we feel it is in good shape.
;Mr. Neff distributed and explained the Ordinance in its present
;shape. He stated there were three changes made, nothing major. The E
lone change was removal of "cigarette butts" . The words were
Public eliminated but we believe it is encompassed in some broader
Works &, language. Another change made at the request of representatives of
Planningjhe Downtown Merchants Association , was in the fines, the amount
Committee was lowered from twenty-five dollars to ten dollars as a minimum
Minutesmandatory fine , which would be an offense which does not occur out
of the operation of an automobile. And in the last Section of the
Ordinance it would allow an employee of the Health Department and
other Departments mentioned to issue citations, this would be
chanted to Police Officers and those members specified from the two ;
other City Departments.
Councilman WhI. tecotton stated he would like for the Ordinance to be
approved In the Committee so that he could introduce it at the next
