A) APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE A SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH FOUR SEASONS AMUSEMENTS, NOT TO EXCEED $6,365.00

This service agreement pertains to Four Seasons Amusements providing attractions at the 2022 Harvest Festival. This cost was included in the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 budget.

B) APPROVE THE PURCHASE AND PLACEMENT OF AN ADDITIONAL 1” N50 SURFACE ON RAILROAD AVENUE FROM SCHROEDER ASPHALT SERVICES, INC., NOT TO EXCEED $21,575

Staff has been actively working with Schroeder Asphalt Services to complete the street projects began last year, including on Railroad Avenue. During a pre-construction meeting, it was advised by both the City’s consulting engineer and Schroeder to increase the depth of the asphalt being placed on Railroad Avenue because of the heavy industrial truck traffic. Adding 1” (on to the previously planned 2”) of pavement will increase the life of the street and delay maintenance for potholes. There are sufficient funds remaining from the City’s 2020 Public Improvement Bond to cover the costs of the additional asphalt.

C) CONSIDER A RESOLUTION FORGIVING THE UNPAID PARK DISTRICT FITNESS CENTER RENT FOR THE MONTHS OF MARCH, APRIL, MAY, AND JUNE 2020

The purpose of this agenda item is to consider a resolution that forgives the rent that was put in forbearance in early 2020. If it is going to be forgiven, Staff will acknowledge this in the City’s upcoming audit as this has carried over from fiscal year to fiscal year. If the rent is not going to be forgiven, the Fitness Center will be provided direction by reinforcing the 12/31/2022 due date, the date their current lease ends.
