a yearly basis. Mr Carr said that replacement of the lamps are part of the annual maintenance
program. Bid packets for this item were mailed to five vendors, with two bids being received.
The lowest bidder for the bulk purchase of 168 replacement lamps was Infilco Degremont Inc,
Richmond, VA. Chairman Randolph moved, seconded by Charles Burris, to award a contract

ITEM 7: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
FOR PURCHASE OF ONE NEPTUNE COMPOUND WATER METER.
This item, presented by Mr Carr, is a request to replace an old "multi -dial" water meter that
had stopped functioning. "Multi -dial" meters were the first meters set in Owasso and are being
replaced by more modern meters as the older ones wear out. Price quotes were obtained from
three suppliers, with the lowest quote being $1325. Councilor Bowen commented that it might
be more economical to determine how many of the old style meters remain and bid out more
than one at a time. Charles Burris moved, seconded by John Phillips, to authorize the
expenditure of $1325.00 for the purchase of one 3" Neptune Compound meter to replace the
existing water meter serving Barnes Elementary School.
