Trust closed in April on the initial portion of a multi -million dollar loan for water and
wastewater improvements, the Oklahoma Water Resources Board made it a condition of the loan
that these monthly operating statements be submitted to them for review. They also required
that the Chairman/Mayor sign the reports. Charles Burris moved, seconded by Jim Smalley,
to authorize the Chairman to sign the monthly operation statements as provided by the City
Treasurer for submittal to the Oklahoma Water Resources Board.

ITEM 7: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A
REQUEST FOR THE PURCHASE OF POLY -CARTS
Because of the favorable response to the yardwaste-only, red polycart program, all polycarts
have now been placed in the community and there is a waiting list. Additional green polycarts
are needed to supplement to current supply. A bulk purchase contract was awarded to Williams
Refuse in September 1992. This allows for a guaranteed price for the 12 months following the
award of the contract. Staff is requesting Trustee approval of the purchase of 50 red, yardwaste-
only polycarts at $61 each and 50 green household refuse -only polycarts at $59 from Williams
Refuse. The total cost would be $6000.
