The minority firms and requirements were discussed and the three engineers pres-
ent (Mansur, Young and Lyman) agreed that the primary contractor meets the 14%
to 18% required bracket through sub -contractors. Mr. Young commented the City
selects an engineer then you agree upon the price as EPA has to approve the
price also which prevents us from being overcharged.

Mrs. Gross suggested asking Mansur-Daubert-Williams to submit their proposal
then if it is not what the Board wants they can ask for other proposals. Since
there is a time element, Mr. Spencer felt all three firms should submit pro-
posals.
Mr. Lyman recommended the proposals be submitted in two phases: first, the
technical aspects and, second, pricing information to be kept separate and
sealed. Mr. Mansur and Mr. Young agreed.
Motion was made by Boyd Spencer, seconded by Dennis Burke, to ask Mansur-Daubert-
Williams, Al Young and Associates and Wilson and Company to make proposals
within the next two weeks for making application and performing Step I to up-
grade sanitary sewer facilities, to be placed on the July 21, 1981 agenda with

ITEM 7 - NF.W RTTSTNFCR
Item
Mr. Charney reported to the Board he has negotiated with H. D. Hale in regard to
the pending lawsuit and some items presented by Mr. Hale are not subject to
negotiation. Mr. Charney recommended rather than condemning the property we
pay $2,500.00 for the purchase, which would be cheaper than the lawsuit, although
Mr. Hale wants $10,000.00. Some of the non-negotiable items were to pay Mr.
Hale's attorney fees and provide him unlimited sewer taps.

sign in and out when they are out of the office during regular working hours.
