CITY OF LUBBOCK
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
MARCH 24, 1994
10:00 A.M.
The City Council of the City of Lubbock, Texas met in regular session on the
24th day of March 1994 in the City Council Chambers, first floor, City Hall,
1625 13th Street, Lubbock, Texas, at 10:00 A.M.
Present: Mayor David R. Langston, Mayor Pro Tem Randy Neugebauer,
Councilmember Victor Hernandez, Councilmember T. J. Patterson,
Councilmember M. J. Aderton, Councilmember Max L. Ince, Councilmember
Alex Cooke, City Manager Bob Cass, City Attorney John C. Ross, Jr., and City
Secretary Betty M. Johnson.
Mayor Langston called the meeting to order at 10:33 A.M.
( 1.) The Invocation was given by Jim Bertram, Managing Director of
Strategic Planning.
( 2.) Pledge of Allegiance was given in unison by those in the Council
Chambers.
(3.) Mark Grigg, 4901 13th Street, appeared to request the installation of a 4-
way stop at the intersection of Vicksburg Avenue and 13th Street.
At their regular meeting on March 8, 1994, the Citizens Traffic Commission
(CTC) voted to recommend installation of 30 MPH speed signs and additional
pedestrian crossing signs to help alleviate reported traffic problems on
Vicksburg Avenue and at the intersection of Vicksburg Avenue and 13th
Street. The problems were reported by Mr. Mark Grigg who lives on one of
the corners. His concerns were heightened by a recent traffic accident, which
resulted in a fatality, at the intersection of 13th Street and Vicksburg Avenue.
However, Mr. Grigg has also requested the installation of a 4-way stop which
the CTC did not vote to recommend for installation. The rejection of the 4-
way stop installation was recommended by the Traffic Engineering staff.
Staffs recommendation was made on the basis that the conditions required by
the Texas Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices are not met. The
condition is that 500 vehicles need to be present for any eight 1-hour periods
of a typical 24-hour period. It was found that during no hours were there 500
vehicles present. The 24-hour total volume was 3,340 vehicles. Also, the
manual requires that stop signs should not be used for speed control, and
speeding was a concern expressed by Mr. Grigg.
Mr. Van Cook, Traffic Signal Engineering Supervisor, defended the CTC's
recommendation against installing a 4-way stop. This action was
recommended in accordance with the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by Councilmember
Aderton to overrule the decision of the CTC regarding the 4-way stop.
Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.
( 4.) Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by
Councilmember Ince to approve the minutes of the March 10, 1994,
Regular City Council Meeting as written. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0
Nays.

ORDINANCE #9692
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 29 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES, CITY OF LUBBOCK, ENTITLED "ZONING," BY AMENDING
SECTION 29-30(7)(d) AND SECTION 29-28(c)(2), TO ELIMINATE THE
REQUIREMENT OF THE PAYMENT OF PERMIT OR APPLICATION FEES
FOR A GROUP HOME FOR HANDICAPPED PERSONS; PROVIDING A
SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
This item was removed from consent agenda.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by Councilmember
Hernandez to pass on second and final reading Ordinance #9692 as
recommended by staff. Motion carried: 5 Yeas; 2 Nays --Mayor Pro Tern
Neugebauer and Councilmember Ince.
(29.) ZONE CASE NO. 1153-L (3602 Slide Road Space B-25)--Request of
Lionel Perez (for Journe's End) for a zoning change from C-3 to IHC
limited to a night club and all C-3 permitted uses on a portion of Lot B,
Security Park Development Addition.
Mayor Langston opened the public hearing at 11:05 A.M.
Mr. Seymour, representing Lionel Perez, requested that the public hearing be
continued until the April 28 City Council meeting. Because witnesses in
opposition to the zoning change were in attendance, it was the consensus of
Council to hear testimony of the opponents, recess the public hearing until
April 28, and hear the proponents testimony at that time.
The following people appeared in opposition to the zoning change:
Vicki Parrish, tenant at Security Park; Larry Tester, managing agent for City
Bank building adjacent to Security Park; Lloyd Hidrick, lessee in Security
Park; Carl Walker, managing company for Security Park; Dale Webster, pastor
of church adjoining Security Park.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The change request
is to convert the operation of an existing game room, approved by the ZBA as
a conditional use, to a game room with an alcoholic beverage permit. Within
the Code, the business would be defined as a night club, bar or lounge. The
proponent indicates that he does not wish to operate a Zoning Code defined
restaurant with a liquor permit, which he could do in the existing C-3 zoning.
There is an issue between the shopping center owner and the tenant regarding
lease conditions. The owner of a piece of property is not the only party that
can request a zone change for that particular property. In this instance, the
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 175
zone change is filed on a portion of the shopping center structure and parking
lot by the tenant.
The opposition included the property manager representing the owner of the
center and a tenant who presented a petition bearing signatures from many
other tenants in opposition. A third person in opposition was a citizen some
distance from the location who objects to bars in general. A first motion to
deny failed 2-4, the second motion to approve was 4-2. The company listed on
the current certified tax roll as owner of the shopping center submitted a letter
of opposition representing more than 20 percent of the land in the notice area.
For the Council to approve the request, a positive vote of six members will be
required.
Adjacent land uses are commercial in all directions. The Comprehensive Land
Use Plan provides two guidelines for consideration of cases:
A. Heavy commercial should be located on regional thoroughfares
or expressways. Brownfield Highway meets that definition.
B. Zone change requests are subject to a test of whether the
change will benefit or compliment existing and proposed land
use patterns in the immediate area.
Several opinions exist:
The current C-4 requirement restricts bars or night clubs to
heavy C-4 commercial locations, causing greater attendance at
individual sites. Providing a greater number of locations might
diminish the effect of the "in places".
2. The original premise of the 1975 Code revision was that the
food service requirement of restaurants would temper the
potential for rowdy or unruly behavior. The heavier bar
atmosphere would be limited to the areas of town with heavy
commercial or industrial zoning.
The proposed zoning change should have little or no effect on the thoroughfare
system.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this request
by a vote of 4-2 subject to the following condition:
Limited to a night club and all unconditionally permitted C-3 uses.
The Council should note that the level of opposition will require six affirmative
votes of Council to approve this request.
This public hearing is continued until the April 28th City Council Meeting at
10:30 A.M.

(25.) ZONE CASE NO 2724 (4407 Clovis Road) --Request of Stephen P.
Warren (for JRS Development) M-1 to M-2 Specific Use (for an auto
salvag-e/wrecking- yard) on approximately 1.4 acres out of Section 14,
Block A.
ORDINANCE #9693

THE OFFICIAL MAP OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK MAKING THE
FOLLOWING CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO.2724; A ZONING CHANGE FROM
M-1 TO M-2 SPECIFIC USE ZONING FOR AN AUTO SALVAGE/WRECKING
YARD ON APPROXIMATELY 1.4 ACRES OUT OF SECTION 14, BLOCK A,
LUBBOCK, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS; PROVIDING A PENALTY;
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Mayor Langston opened the public hearing at 11:17 A.M.
Stephen P. Warren appeared on behalf of JRS Development to present this
request for zone change from M-1 to M-2 Specific Use.
Nancy Gressett and Phoniel Pirtle appeared in opposition to the zoning change.
Mayor Langston closed the public hearing at 11:26 A.M.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The proponent
indicated the proposed use is not the stereotype "junk yard" from the past.
Adjacent land uses:
North - Clovis Road/industrial
South - zoned T
East - zoned T
West - industrial
This portion of the Clovis Highway is IDP on the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan. The Specific Use section of the Zoning Code has 8 items subject to
review during any zone change request for a salvage operations:
Proper permits.
2. A six-foot screening fence around the yard. The proponent
requests a condition allowing the installation of the solid fence
either of metal or cyclone with plastic slats on the three open
sides of the yard whenever the yard is used for storage. For an
initial time, the operation will be entirely inside the structure.
No display area in the front of the business is proposed.
3. The property will comply with the stacking guidelines (no
higher than the fence).
4. Reasonable neatness on the lot.
All signs will comply with the Code.
6. Drainage and inspection of the property allowed to appropriate
personnel.
7. No advertising signs will be on any fence.
The project should have no effect on traffic.
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 177
As described, and with the conditions outlined on the site plan, the proposal
should have little or no negative effect on the public if, as described, this
business does not accumulate the stack lot full of scrap that is traditionally
associated with salvage yards. The neighborhood opposition fears that his use
will fall into the typical "junkyard" after several years. Staff requested
consideration of the individual items noted on the site plan as a part of the site
plan: delaying the fence until the yard is used for storage of vehicles, as well as
allowing the choice between a metal screening fence or cyclone fence with
plastic inserts.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this request
by a vote of 7-0 subject to the following conditions:
Tied to site plan 2724 as presented to the Planning and Zoning
Commission and signed by the Chairman on March 3, 1994.
2. The required screening fence around the outside storage yard
shall be waived until the yard comes into use.
3. The required screening fence can be either chain link with
plastic inserts or a metal fence.
The staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Motion was made by Councilmember Aderton, seconded by Councilmember
Cooke to pass on first reading Ordinance #9694 with conditions recommended
by P&Z and City staff. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.
Now (26.) ZONE CASE NO.2725 (2602 Parkway Drive) --Request of Lloyd Croslin
(for United Supermarkets) for a zoning change from R-1 Specific Use to
C-3 (for a grocery store) on Lots A and B. Wilshire Park Addition.

PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR
PUBLICATION.
Mayor Langston opened the public hearing at 11:34 A.M.
Eddie Richardson and Blanchie Swisher appeared in support of the zone
change.
No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Langston closed the public hearing at
11:37 A.M.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The request is
required because a motel that was demolished on this site was operating under
an R-1 Specific Use zone case. Adjacent land uses:
North - Parkway Drive
South - duplex zoning
East - commercial
West - commercial
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 178
The proposed is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan and zoning
policy. The proposal should have little effect on the transp6rtation system.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended this change to the Code
by a vote of 7-0 subject to the following condition:
A site plan, including building elevations showing materials,
color, and texture, shall be submitted and approved by the
Planning and Zoning Commission prior to the issuance of a
building permit.
The staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by Councilmember
Cooke to pass on first reading Ordinance #9695 with conditions as

(27.) ZONE CASE NO 1490-N (5168 69th Street) --Request of Kimley-Horn

feet of Lots 1A and 2A. Fiesta Autoland Addition.

Mayor Langston opened the public hearing at 11:38 A.M
David Goyette appeared on behalf of Maclay Development Company to
present this request for zone change from C-4 with conditions to C-3.
No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Langston closed the public hearing at
11:40 A.M.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. This land area was
deleted from the previous zone change because of a failed attempt to acquire
the property.
Adjacent land uses:
North - shopping center under construction
South - commercial
East - commercial
West - *residential
* Streets/Engineering is in the process of designing and bidding 69th Street
west of Slide. Staff expects a commercial zone change on the land area north
of the new street, west of Slide to Aberdeen. Staff has indicated support of
such a request to the various owners conditioned on a unified proposal being
made by all the owners.
The request is consistent with both the Comprehensive Land Use Plan and
Zoning Policy. The project will have the anticipated dramatic effect on Slide
Road. The site plan notes one curb cut on Slide, which the staff strongly
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 179
supports. The site plan also notes two pylon signs on Slide that are not
permitted by Code and will not be considered as part of the approved site plan.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended this change to the Code
by a vote of 7-0 subject to the following condition:
Tied to site plan 1490-N as presented to the Planning and
Zoning Commission and signed by the Chairman on March 3,
1994.
The staff recommended approval of this case. Approval tied to the site plan
will remove a portion of the long discussed fence, adjacent to Slide Road.

Jim Bertram, Managing Director of Strategic Planning, presented staff
comments. The City staff has previously held briefing sessions with Council on
the EZ/EC grant application process. Staff has begun the process of involving
other City departments, service providers, and affected citizens and citizen
organizations. One of the guidelines in preparing the strategic plan for the
Enterprise Community indicated a need to show evidence the agencies and
stakeholders in the process were empowered to coordinate and collaborate to
bring creative and innovative partnerships for revitalization to the table.
If, as determined by Council, on May 26, 1994, staff should submit the EC
grant application, it will strengthen our application to show that staff passed
this resolution early in the process. Staff recommended approval.

The Temporary Parks License Agreement between the City of Lubbock and the
Knights of Columbus Council #3008 is filed with Resolution No. 4432.
Rusty Black, Parks Superintendent, presented staff comments. In October
1993, the Parks and Recreation Department was approached by Knights of
Columbus #3008 to host a two-day Cinco de Mayo Festival at the Buddy
Holly Recreation Area, adjacent to Landwer Party House, on April 30-May 1,
1994. This request included the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
At the November 23, 1993, Park Board meeting, the request was unanimously
approved by Park Board. At the February 17, 1994, Park Board meeting, the
Board unanimously approved forwarding the request to the City Council.
Guidelines and procedures have been developed to ensure that special concerts
or events would fall under proper control, access, security, and management
when alcohol is sold on this property.
To ensure that this event will have proper security and other safeguards to
provide an orderly event, the following are provided in the lease agreement.
A. Restroom facilities - minimum of 30
B. First Aid Station - minimum of 2
C. Concessions - space for 30 ($200.00 per space to Knights of
Columbus)
D. Alcoholic Beverage Concessions - Maximum of 3 stands
E. Litter Control by Knights of Columbus
F. Security - 3 officers per 1,000 participants
G. Parking - off -site parking South of concert site
H. Liability Insurance - $1,000,000 by Knights of Columbus
I. Bands by Knights of Columbus
Promotion by Knights of Columbus
K. Security Fencing by Knights of Columbus
After considerable discussion and negotiation, the Knights agreed to $750/day
as a set fee. Under this agreement, the City would make $1,500 from the
festival, less minor expenses for electricity, dumpsters, and site preparation.
The gate fee will be $3.00 on Saturday and $5.00 on Sunday. The charge will
be for general admission. Children six and under are free.
The resolution would allow the Mayor to enter into an agreement that will
allow Knights of Columbus #3008 to sell alcoholic beverages during their
Cinco de Mayo Family Festival. Staff and the Parks and Recreation Board
recommended approval of this resolution as per agreement and policies.

The Interlocal Agreement between the City of Lubbock and Texas Tech University is
filed with Resolution No. 4433.
Vicki Key, Interim Director of Civic Centers, presented staff comments.
Resolution #4341 authorizing the Mayor to sign an agreement with Texas
Tech University for the connection of the Municipal Coliseum to the
University's underground utility system was presented and approved at the
December 9, 1993, City Council meeting. Staff had recommended approval of
the agreement, pending approval by the Texas Tech Board of Regents. The
agreement was presented to the Texas Tech Board of Regents at their
December 17, 1993, meeting. City staff was told prior to presenting the
agreement to Council that all appropriate personnel with the University had
reviewed the agreement and were satisfied with the content.
Since obtaining approval from the Texas Tech Board of Regents, representa-
tives from the University have proposed some wording changes to the agree-
ment. These changes are not substantive and do not change the intent of the
agreement. The majority of the changes are in terminology and changes in
wording with regard to designated representatives. One clause was added in
Exhibit "C" (Access Agreement) which provides for the tunnel and its
components to revert to the University should the City decide to abandon or
demolish the Coliseum. This particular provision is in line with the provision
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 184
found in the original land conveyance. That resolution and associated docu-
ment, which was executed in 1953, conveyed the land and provided easements
for the construction of the Auditorium -Coliseum and also stated that the land,
buildings located thereon, and the public easement shall revert to Texas Tech
should the City permanently abandon the structure and tract of land designated
for auditorium -coliseum purposes. Another clause in Exhibit "C" addresses the
start date of the project and states that the agreement will be terminated if
construction is not commenced within twelve (12) months of the date of the
executed agreement. The same clause does, however, provide for the start date
to be extended by mutual agreement.
This Interlocal Agreement will provide for the option of connecting the
Coliseum to the Texas Tech campus underground utility system, which has
been determined to be the most cost effective method of providing chilled
water for the Coliseum cooling system. Revisions as requested by Texas Tech
representatives have been incorporated into the Agreement. The Agreement
has been signed by an authorized University representative. It is staffs
recommendation that this revised agreement be approved.

Doug Goodman, Health Director, presented staff comments. In the past this
grant was included with all other Texas Department of Health grants. Because
it is now coming from the federal government and the contract dates are
January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1994, the State Health Department
proposes a separate contract. By signing this grant the City agrees to conduct
counseling, testing, referral, and partner elicitation/notification activities to an
estimated 1,500 clients in the targeted population for Lubbock County.
Since the City started keeping records pertaining to HIV/AIDS the Health
Department has tested 11,215 individuals for HIV/AIDS and have identified
369 individuals who are HIV positive and 254 who have AIDS. At this time,
118 individuals have died from AIDS. The State has identified males who are
homosexual, males who are bisexual, males and females who have multiple sex
partners, persons with a history of sexually transmitted diseases and persons
with a history of high risk behavior as the targeted population.
Staff believes this is in the realm of services a health department should provide
and recommended authorization.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by Councilmember
Aderton to authorize Resolution #4434 as recommended by staff. Motion
carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays--Councilmember Ince was absent from the Council
Chambers.

The Ground Lease Agreement between the City of Lubbock and Sojo Treatment, L.C.
is filed with Resolution No. 4435.
Lee Ramirez, Solid Waste Superintendent, presented staff comments. On
October 9, 1993, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
regulations, 40 CFR 257 and 258, became effective. These regulations, along
with state regulations, 30 TAC 330, mandated that "sludges, grease trap waste,
grit trap waste, or liquid wastes from municipal sources can be accepted at a
Type I municipal solid waste landfill for disposal only if the material ... is
certified to contain no free liquids." Local grease and grit trap haulers would
no longer be allowed to directly deposit the waste material at the City of
Lubbock's Landfill without treatment and/or processing to remove all liquids.
Prior to implementation of these regulations, a private waste processing
company (SOJO Treatment, L.C.) requested and obtained a permit from the
Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission for a Type V processing
facility. SOJO Treatment is actively pursuing construction of a processing
facility in Lubbock, however, they have been unable to complete construction
at this time. In order to continue to provide service to the waste transporters,
the Solid Waste Department, on October 9, 1993, allowed SOJO Treatment to
begin operating a temporary processing station at the City of Lubbock's
Landfill. SOJO Treatment, L.C. intends to have an operational plant by
August 1994.
The term of the lease is five (5) months. The lease may be extended another
two (2) months by the consent of both parties. SOJO will pay to the City of
Lubbock $.01 per gallon of liquid waste received at the facility.
The Solid Waste staff recommended approval of a ground -lease agreement
between the City of Lubbock and SOJO Treatment, L.C.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tern Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Cooke to authorize Resolution #4435 subject to verification
by the City Attorney that SOJO has insurance coverage for spill mitigation.
Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.
(36.) Consider Resolution #4436 authorizing the Mayor to sign Supplemental
Agreement No. 2 with HDR Engineering, Inc., for Landfill Site Selection
and Permitting.
RESOLUTION #4436
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK:
THAT the Mayor of the City of Lubbock BE and is hereby authorized and
directed to execute for and on behalf of the City of Lubbock a Supplemental
Agreement No. 2 to the City of Lubbock Landfill Site Selection and Permitting
Agreement dated October 1992, between the City of Lubbock and HDR Engineering,
Inc., appointing an Owner's Representative as part of the engineering services contract
for the permitting activities of the new landfill site, which Agreement is attached
hereto, which shall be spread upon the minutes of the Council and as spread upon the
minutes of this Council shall constitute and be a part of this Resolution if fully
copied herein in detail.

Supplement No. 2 to the Agreement dated October 8, 1992 between City of Lubbock
and HDR Engineering for Professional Engineering Services for the Landfill Site
Selection and Permitting Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 4436.
Lee Ramirez, Solid Waste Superintendent, presented staff comments. Council
authorized the Mayor to execute the City of Lubbock-HDR-Landfill Site
Selection and Permitting Agreement on October 8, 1992. This agreement
authorized HDR to provide engineering services for Landfill Site Selection.
Council further authorized the Mayor to execute Supplemental Agreement No.
1 with HDR Engineering for engineering services associated with permitting
activities for the new landfill site on December 9, 1993. The Notice to
Proceed was issued to HDR Engineering on January 3, 1994.
Provisions in the agreement require that the Owner, the City of Lubbock,
approve certain contractual arrangements. For example, Article 22-
Subcontractors requires that HDR obtain the City's approval before
subcontracting elements of the job. This provision necessitated that the issue
of approving subcontractors go before Council on February 24, 1994.
To avoid having to take all such issues to Council, staff recommended that the
Council appoint the City Manager or his designee, as the Owner's
representative for this agreement. Such an appointment can be made via
Supplemental Agreement No. 2 to the contract.
Staff recommended that Council authorize the Mayor to sign Supplemental
Agreement No. 2 to City of Lubbock Landfill Site Selection and Permitting
Agreement.
Motion was made by Councilmember Aderton, seconded by Councilmember
Patterson to authorize Resolution #4436 as recommended by staff. Motion
carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.
(40.) BID #12787--Refuse Collection bodies (Fleet Services).
Victor Kilman, Purchasing Manager, presented staff comments. This item is to
consider bids for 14 refuse collection bodies for the Solid Waste Department.
This bid is not on the consent agenda due to patent infringement dispute
between the low bidder and another bidder.
Southwestern Equipment of Lubbock was the lowest bidder utilizing a body
manufactured by Central Tank of Oklahoma. The next low bid was from Davis
MARCH 24, 1994
Page 188
Truck and Equipment out of Dallas. The third and highest bid was from
EMCO Industries located in Plainview.
The issue is a patent infringement suit by EMCO against Central Tank of
Oklahoma regarding the hydraulic lifting device on the Central Tank body. A
suit has been filed by EMCO in Oklahoma and the City has received
notification of this suit by EMCO's attorney.
Central Tank has informed the City that they do not feel the patent has been
infringed and are currently defending this lawsuit. They provided an indemnity
agreement in which Central Tank promises to defend and hold harmless the
City against all claims relating to the suit by EMCO. Central Tank also
provided an agreement to retrofit their collection bodies with a non -infringing
device in the event that an injunction is placed on the City for use of the lifting
device on the Central Tank body. Purchasing the Central Tank body through
Southwestern Equipment Company would cost $70, $140 less than going with
the next low bid from Davis Truck and Equipment. As mentioned before,
EMCO was the highest of the three bids.
The City Attorney is concerned about the potential cost of a patent
infringement suit and subsequent damages assessed against the City for
knowingly purchasing equipment claimed to be in violation of an in -force
patent. Patent suits can be very expensive to defend and damages are a legal
possibility. Central Tank indicated that they were currently spending a
considerable amount of money in defending their product against this suit.
Based on the expensive possibilities of a patent infringement suit and/or
damages and the limited financial resources behind the defend and hold
harmless agreement, the City Attorney recommended not purchasing the
Central Tank bodies.
Selection of the successful bidder is at the discretion of Council. It is worthy
to note that Central Tank continues to sell the equipment in question to public
and private haulers throughout the southwest. Examination of the equipment
indicates that it is as good or better than the EMCO equipment.
The City Attorney's staff recommended that staff purchase the equipment from
Davis Truck and Equipment. In making this recommendation, staff pointed
out several facts. Counting last year and this current bid, the City will spend
$94,980 more than the original low bid to purchase the Central Tank bid. This
figure could continue to grow as the suit could take several years. In addition,
by establishing a policy of avoiding products involved in litigation, the City will
be restricting the competitiveness of City bids and possibly increasing City
expenditures. This needs to be weighed against the risks of a lawsuit in which
the infringing company cannot defend and hold harmless the City.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Ince to accept the second lowest bid. Motion carried: 7 Yeas;
0 Nays.
(37.) Hold an executive session, in accordance with V.T.C.A. Government
